Vacuklav 31 B+ by Melag: An Solution for Demanding Medical Sterilization Needs

The Vacuklav 31 B+ autoclave by Melag is an industry-leading sterilization solution tailored to meet the high standards required in medical and dental practices. Built with innovative fractionated vacuum technology, it ensures complete steam penetration for a comprehensive sterilization process. The Vacuklav 31 B+ is specifically designed for healthcare professionals who need a reliable, efficient, and versatile autoclave that can handle a wide range of instruments and materials.

At the heart of the Vacuklav 31 B+ is its fractionated vacuum technology, a process that guarantees the effective removal of air from the sterilization chamber. This technology allows for saturated steam to reach every part of the load, ensuring that even complex instruments with narrow lumens are completely sterilized. The fractionated vacuum process also aids in faster drying times, improving the workflow by enabling quick re-use of instruments.

The Vacuklav 31 B+ is equipped with a dedicated steam generator, which initiates the sterilization process by producing steam and directing it precisely into the chamber. This design ensures that optimal pressure and temperature are achieved without risk of overheating the chamber. This not only accelerates the sterilization cycle but also preserves the integrity of delicate instruments and textiles, making the Vacuklav 31 B+ a versatile tool for any healthcare setting.

With a compact build (49 x 42.5 x 62 cm) and a robust, stainless-steel sterilization chamber, the Vacuklav 31 B+ is designed to be both durable and space-efficient. The autoclave operates within a wide range of ambient conditions and includes protective features like overload protection and an FI residual current circuit breaker. It is classified with an IP20 protection rating, making it safe and reliable for daily operation in a medical setting.

With a water consumption of approximately 700 ml per cycle and a thermal radiation output of 0.9 kWh, the Vacuklav 31 B+ is designed for energy and resource efficiency. Its internal water storage tanks support up to seven cycles, reducing the need for frequent refilling, which is ideal for high-demand practices. Additionally, the autoclave’s adherence to DIN EN 13060 standards underscores its compliance with the highest standards in sterilization performance.

The Vacuklav 31 B+ is classified as a Type B autoclave, making it suitable for the most demanding sterilization tasks. It can handle both wrapped and unwrapped instruments, lumened instruments, and textiles, making it ideal for general medical, dental, and specialist practices.
