New Circular Chamber Autoclave Range with Sliding Doors Introduced

Astell Scientific has introduced a range of circular chamber sterilisers fitted with sliding doors to complement its comprehensive range of square section models. The new range is similar to Astell’s popular front loading ‘Swiftlock’ machines but replaces the hinged door with an integrated sliding door, improving access and reducing required floor space. Circular section pressure vessels also have the benefit of being more cost efficient to produce than square chamber equivalents in small to mid-range capacities.

The sliding door circular autoclaves are available in five chamber sizes, from 120 litres up to 344 litres in capacity. A full range of options can be applied to the range to add vacuum, heated jacket and integral steam generator, meaning it becomes possible to sterilise more complex loads such as hazardous waste, fabrics and porous items or to customise the machine to your requirements.

Either manual or automatic sliding door operation can be specified with no cost difference; however automatic actuation requires an external air supply or Astell’s integral air compressor option.
