100 - 400L Autoclave
Front-Loading

Automatically re-fills the autoclave chamber while the door is open ready for the next cycle. Requires a water supply. (Fitted as standard to electrically heated vacuum models)

Controls distortion of semi-rigid containers, pouches and blister-packs as the autoclave cools by pressurizing the autoclave chamber with air, balancing the internal pressure inside the containers, pouches or blister packs. In autoclaves with water cooling jackets it controls volume losses when rapidly cooling liquid loads. Requires an external air supply at a minimum pressure of 3 BarG.

On cylindrical profile Priorclaves all autoclave exhaust is directed through a 0.2 micron HEPA filter housed externally. The filter is easily accessed for regular changing and all non-filtered condensate is returned to the autoclave chamber.

Provides protection for plastic building drains by reducing the temperature of the autoclave exhaust. Requires a reliable water supply at a minimum pressure of 3 BarG.

Electrically Heated Priorclaves require soft water with a conductivity of a minimum of 100 micro Siemens to work correctly. Various adaptations can be made to pipe work, fittings and water detection systems for Ultra pure water supplies if required.

Protects sensitive loads from contamination from the outside air drawn in as the autoclave cools.

Where a drain is not available the autoclave exhaust is collected outside the autoclave for periodic disposal. Not suitable for vacuum models or sterilizing waste / discard loads.

Manual override of Double Door Interlock for Pass-Through Priorclaves – Allows operation from either end and single ended operation

Factory Acceptance test carried out with the customer at Priorclave’s factory after manufacture and before dispatch.

Allows easy connection and integration to an internal computer network for remote monitoring and storage of records.

Extension legs fitted to the autoclave allowing easy cleaning underneath the autoclave

Preparation of detailed IQ/OQ Documentation for testing purposes

Provides a mechanical backup to the autoclave control system’s built in cycle counter.

Wooden Packing Crate for air or sea shipping. Fitted with shock and tilt indicators and the wood used is treated to ISPM15.

Where the autoclave is to be installed at higher altitudes an adjustment can be made to the autoclave alarms and settings to adjust for the differences in measured air pressures. Two bands are available: elevations between 900 and 2,400 M (3,000 to 8,000 ft.) – (0.9 to 0.75 Bar pressure) and elevations between 2,400 and 7,000 M (8,000 to 23,000 ft.) – (0.75 to 0.40 Bar pressure).

Provides a temperature record of autoclave cycles independent of the autoclave control system onto a paper chart. Unless otherwise specified a fixed temperature probe is fitted. Multi-channel versions are also available.

Provides a temperature and pressure record of autoclave cycles independent of the autoclave control system. Cycle records are graphically displayed and saved to a log file. Unless otherwise specified a fixed temperature probe is fitted along with a pressure transducer. Further recording channels can be provided along with the option of an Ethernet port for connection to a computer network.

Provides a temperature record of autoclave cycles independent of the autoclave control system onto a paper chart. Unless otherwise specified a fixed temperature probe is fitted. Multi-channel versions are also available.

The autoclave is fitted with an external serial communication interface socket for connection to a suitable PC or laptop. The package includes a serial cable and software.

Tamper proofing of program settings for single program Priorclaves – Included on models fitted with multi-program memory options.

Provides an additional level of control protection. The Tactrol system scans all input channels to detect abnormalities and will abort the cycle with a displayed, logged and printed fault code and description if one is detected.

Free of charge replacement of parts for two years. (Consumable items and damage due to misuse or negligence are excluded)

Ion Exchange water softening system which provides water of the correct quality to run the Priorclave – requires regular refilling with salt to maintain water quality.
