Versatile Top Loading Autoclave Sterilises More in a Single Process

Designed by Priorclave, this top loading QCS EV100 autoclave gives laboratories with limited floor space the opportunity to acquire an extremely versatile autoclave that offers real practical benefits of being able to sterilise both short and tall items side by side in a single process to help increase sterilisation throughout.  Also self-explanatory controls enable laboratory staff to quickly master programme settings to maximise the efficiency of the sterilisation process.

This compact 100 litre capacity top loading autoclave will appeal to laboratory managers in diverse industrial sectors such as food, drink, dairy, pharmaceutical, agricultural, education, healthcare as well as dedicated research establishments for sterilising applications such as media preparation, liquids and diluent, waste, glassware instruments and pieces of apparatus that need superior cleansing.

The QCS EV100 is manufactured by Priorclave at its manufacturing centre in SE London.  Here, many years’ experience of steam steriliser design, use of quality materials, robust build programmes and stringent QA procedures ensure that this and the many other Priorclaves that leave this world-renowned manufacturing centre deliver reliable, repeatable sterilising performance.

The QCS EV100 electrically heated autoclave features one of the easiest and safest, single handed door opening systems available; a design developed by the company many years ago and still as practical today.  Each autoclave is supplied complete with a stainless steel load support plate and two stainless steel mesh baskets. Stainless steel waste containers are also available to suit this autoclave.

Easy programme setting is through the advanced Tactrol^®2 microprocessor controller which guides user through simple step-by-step set up of sterilising parameters as well as keeping a log of temperature, pressure, time and cycle data.  The data is held in an archive file which can be subsequently downloaded onto a USB flash drive for transfer to computer for transmission to Priorclave’s Service Centre for technical assistance if required, helping fine-tuning the autoclave to achieve maximum performance and efficiency.

The QCS top loading autoclaves are designed to improve a laboratories sterilising efficiency, features such as delayed start and media warming function as standard for ready to pour media at the start of the day, forced air cooling as standard helping to reduce cycle times and automatic timed free-steaming as standard for improved air removal.

The QCS EV100 is the smallest model in the top-loading autoclave range, other models in the same range offer capacities up to 150 litres.  For laboratories requiring much larger chambers Priorclave has one of the most comprehensive selections of including front loading, power door and double-door designs, manufactured by Priorclave in UK. Visit the web site to see the entire standard range. Priorclave is also able to design and build an autoclave to match a customer’s unique requirements.
