Functionalities and technical specifications

TitleValue
Integral steam generator optionThe standard chamber heaters are replaced with a 16 kW or 24 kW integral steam generator, significantly improving cycle times by enhancing steam production efficiency. This upgrade includes automatic water filling as standard, eliminating the need for manual refills between sterilization cycles.
Advanced and simple vacuum options A vacuum option is essential for porous type loads (e.g. wrapped instruments and fabrics) or other cycles where air pockets could easily become trapped within the load.
External jacket optionThe external jacket option, requiring either the steam generator or direct steam option, adds an additional layer to the outside of the autoclave chamber. This jacket can be independently heated by the steam generator to improve the drying process at the end of the cycle or flooded with water during cooling to accelerate cooling times.

Front-loading autoclave

The front-loading autoclave range offers five chamber sizes with increased capacity compared to the top-loading models. The "Swiftlock" front-loading series provides users with expanded configuration options not available in the smaller units, along with the convenience of easy front access. They are ideal for sterilizing liquids (media), waste, glassware, and other instruments.

The "swiftlock" front-loading autoclave is available in five sizes (120, 153, 247, 290, and 344 litres) and are factory-equipped with a wide range of standard features. These features include:

  • A 5.7" colour touchscreen with an integrated USB data port

  • A delayed start and media hold warm feature for greater control over the timing of sterilization

  • A validation port, drain valve, and an electropolished stainless steel chamber

  • Safe and easy loading with Astell's unique "swiftlock" door closure system

  • Timed/pulsed freesteaming

  • A full range of options and accessories

  • Five password levels to prevent lower-level users from making changes

  • FDA 21 CFR part 11 software option

Safety features include:

  • An over-temperature protection

  • An external pressure gauge
