Laboratory autoclave VARIOKLAV® OrangeLine

benchtopautomatic

In the fields of medicine and biology, reliable steamers are considered basic equipment of every laboratory. They are used for heating, keeping warm and pressureless steaming of all kinds of growth media and are used for testing components, rubber goods and ceramics. All the advantages of our VARIOKLAV OrangeLine steamers at a glance: Robust and rustproof square steam chamber made of 1.4301 stainless steel Relative humidity of between 10 and 100% Infinitely variable temperature setting between 40 and 98 degrees Celsius Low working heights starting at 750 millimetres for comfortable loading and unloading of the steam chamber Narrow and space-saving design – also suitable for smaller laboratories and practices Drainage of the condensate towards the edge of the cover No cooling water required for cooling the periphery Strategic ventilation in the lowest part of the chamber prevents the formation of air pockets In case of insufficient water, the steamer emits visual and audible malfunction signals Thermal lock in accordance with TRB 402 for fully automatic switching off of the heating system if there is a lack of water, thus preventing the base from overheating How do OrangeLine steamers work? VARIOKLAV OrangeLine steamers work with the gravity method. This involves displacing the air remaining in the sterilisation chamber with saturated steam. This principle is based on the differing specific weights of steam and air: hot steam rises and displaces the cold air. The effect is that the water vapour can easily reach the goods and condense there. The process is also known as the pressure cooker principle and works in a very similar way in classic pressure cookers.
