Benchtop front-loading laboratory autoclaves without drying
The AHS-N Series benchtop autoclaves meet the fundamental sterilization needs of laboratories in industrial, educational and research facilities to increase productivity and simplify sterilization operations.
They are designed for sterilization of a wide range of solid and liquid loads, including glass, plastics, metal utensils, liquids, culture media and other laboratory items.
Suitable for the general laboratory, they are optimized for easy operation, include many safety features to protect users in their daily routine and are easy to install as they are plug and play.
Economical, resilient and limited resource consumption
Built using high-quality construction materials, they feature a sterilization chamber made of exceptionally resistant AISI-316L stainless steel. The components are sourced from top-tier manufacturers. Limited consumption of water, energy and operator time.
Compact design and easy installation
Compact and desktop design. They have an integrated independent water tank. No specific connections are required for their installation, they are plug and play equipment, they simply need an electrical connection.
Customize with a range of accessories
Choose the model and type of support that best suits your needs. Install a flexible probe for more accurate and safe sterilization of liquids. Record and analyze your processes with dedicated software or an embedded printer.
Operation
In the heating phase, powerful electric heating elements dramatically heat the water to produce saturated steam. When the sterilization temperature is reached, the sterilization phase begins and the temperature is accurately maintained during the sterilization time.
At the end of the sterilization phase, a natural cooling phase begins. In the solids programs, the discharge can be forced manually by means of a push button to reduce the duration of this phase. In the programs for liquids there is the possibility to regulate the cycle by heart probe and to use the agar mode to maintain a constant chamber temperature and avoid gelling of the culture medium.
Temperature
Pressure
Operation
The heating elements heat up water to produce saturated steam, which expels the cold air outward until the sterilization temperature is achieved in the chamber.
Temperature
Pressure
Upon reaching the sterilization temperature in the medium, the sterilization phase begins and the temperature is accurately sustained for the predefined duration. Antibiotics, pH correctors or thermolabile ingredients can be dispensed at any time using the external dispensing ports.
Temperature
Pressure
After completion of sterilization, a final natural cooling phase begins until a safe temperature is reached. Optionally, the agar mode can be configured to maintain a constant temperature.

Applications
LIQUIDS AND CULTURE MEDIA
The agar mode maintains the temperature and prevents the culture media from gelling. Installing a flexible probe allows for more precise sterilization of liquid loads.
PLASTICS AND METAL OBJECTS
The operation of the fast evaporation tap accelerates the cooling phase of solid loads.
GLASSWARE
The operation of the fast evaporation tap accelerates the cooling phase of solid loads.
LABORATORY WASTE BAGS
For this application, the sterilization time should be extended and chemical and/or biological tests should be used to validate the correct sterilization of the load.
