The feature packed C40, front loading, benchtop autoclave available from Priorclave at an affordable price and supported by a superb extended warranty gives long-term peace of mind of assured performance and reliability. It makes the compact C40 range of autoclaves the ideal choice for start-up laboratories or those with low sterilising throughputs.

The C40 - 40 litre autoclave range have easy-to-load 350mm diameter chambers and their small footprint enables even the smallest laboratory to own a highly efficient steam steriliser. The range is produced in two formats, as a standard operating autoclave or with a highly efficient vacuum system adding further to its appeal for those laboratories where infrequent sterilisations take place or a more demanding medium requires faster processing all within a bench mounted autoclave.

Everything about Priorclave C40 autoclaves is designed to appeal to those wanting a simple to operate machine.  Out of the box the C40 benchtop autoclave requires only plugging into a 230V, single-phase supply and all operational functions are governed by the established, simple to programme and totally reliable TACTROL®2 microprocessor system - just set the temperature and time required, select any options needed and press start, operation is fully automatic once the cycle has started.

TACTROL®2 provides easy pushbutton control, whether requiring simple cycles or a fully featured multi-programme operation. By fully automating the sterilising process and with features to assist with autoclave management TACTROL®2 allows laboratory staff to continue with other tasks secure in the knowledge that autoclaving is proceeding safely and efficiently.

Buy Priorclave autoclaves in the knowledge that every care has been taken to build robust machines with a superior exterior finish to body panels and frames preventing potential for cross-contamination within laboratories. During manufacture Priorclave has incorporated Biomaster Protection into the exterior epoxy coating, a highly effective and permanent treatment for control of harmful bacteria, making any surface cleaner, more hygienic and providing durable lifelong protection against the threat of cross contamination.
