CertoClav Classic autoclave: robustness for professional sterilisation
The CertoClav Classic from CertoClav is a vertical stainless steel autoclave designed to meet the rigorous sterilisation requirements of laboratories. Building on more than 60 years of experience, this model stands out for its reliability, durability and ease of use. Designed specifically for sterilising unpackaged solids, liquids, bottles, instruments, synthetic materials, biological waste and culture media, it is ideal for research laboratories, educational establishments and medical analysis laboratories.
Its 18-litre sterilisation chamber is made of electropolished 316L stainless steel, which guarantees high corrosion resistance, even with intensive use. Two versions are available, offering a choice of two temperature ranges: 115/121 °C or 125/140 °C. These temperatures are controlled by a regulating valve located on the lid, with each version calibrated with its own thermostatic system to ensure accurate and consistent sterilisation.
An integrated timer automatically regulates the duration of the sterilisation cycle. Once the set time has elapsed, the appliance switches off automatically, offering peace of mind to users while optimising laboratory efficiency. If the timer is not activated, manual shutdown is still possible. The CertoClav Classic is equipped with a precision thermometer, a pressure gauge with a tracing needle and a flow ventilation system, ensuring uniform treatment of the contents.
The heating element is integrated into the base of the chamber, with no direct contact with water, which prevents scaling and significantly extends the service life of the device. Its robust and space-saving design allows for mobile and independent use, requiring only a simple electrical connection. Safety is enhanced by a lid locking system that prevents opening under pressure, a pressure relief valve and overheating protection.
Versatile, reliable and easy to use, the CertoClav Classic is the ideal equipment for any facility requiring a stand-alone, safe and effective sterilisation solution. It comes with an instrument tray and power cable, and can be supplemented with accessories to optimise its everyday use.
