Horizontal Laboratory Autoclave LHA-B16

The Horizontal Laboratory Autoclave has multiple safety mechanisms, including an automatic door-locking system that prevents opening until the internal pressure drops to 0.027 MPa. It is equipped with over-temperature and over-pressure protection to prevent operational hazards. If the pressure exceeds 0.24 MPa, the safety valve automatically releases steam into the water tank. The autoclave also shuts off power and activates an alarm in case of water shortage, ensuring safe operation in laboratory and medical settings.

Labtron’s Horizontal Laboratory Autoclave is designed to sterilize laboratory instruments, glassware, culture media, and biohazard waste. It effectively removes contaminants from reusable medical tools, surgical instruments, and laboratory supplies. With an adjustable temperature range from 105°C to 134°C, it accommodates various sterilization requirements. The drying function makes it particularly suitable for sterilizing dressings and porous materials that must remain moisture-free.

Our Horizontal Laboratory Autoclave includes a drying function that removes residual moisture from sterilized items, ensuring they are completely dry after the cycle. This feature is essential for sterilizing dressings, glassware, and surgical instruments that must remain moisture-free to prevent contamination. The drying function enhances the effectiveness of sterilization and ensures that instruments are ready for immediate use.

The Horizontal Laboratory Autoclave is equipped with an automatic pressure-release valve that activates if the internal pressure exceeds 0.24 MPa, directing excess steam into the water tank. This prevents over-pressurization and protects both the autoclave and the user. The door remains locked until the pressure drops to 0.027 MPa to prevent accidental steam exposure. These built-in safeguards ensure the autoclave operates safely under all conditions.

Labtron’s Horizontal Laboratory Autoclave requires regular maintenance to ensure long-term performance. The sterilization chamber should be cleaned periodically to prevent residue buildup. Water levels must be checked before each use to avoid dry heating, and the safety valve should be inspected to confirm proper operation. Testing the automatic cut-off system and door-sealing mechanism ensures continued reliability. Performing these maintenance tasks helps extend the lifespan of the autoclave.

The Horizontal Laboratory Autoclave is suitable for sterilizing liquid media, but users must select appropriate sterilization cycles to prevent liquid loss or boiling over. The autoclave’s gradual depressurization system ensures the safe handling of liquids by preventing sudden pressure changes. Proper placement of liquid containers and adherence to sterilization guidelines help achieve uniform results. This feature makes the autoclave effective for both solid and liquid sterilization needs.

Our Horizontal Laboratory Autoclave includes an automatic water-level monitoring system that detects when water levels are low. If the water supply runs out, the autoclave automatically shuts off power and triggers an alarm to prevent overheating. This protective feature ensures safe and uninterrupted operation. Regularly checking and refilling the water reservoir helps maintain the autoclave’s reliability and performance.

Labtron’s Horizontal Laboratory Autoclave should not be overloaded, as this can reduce steam penetration and affect sterilization efficiency. The door must be securely closed before starting a cycle, as the autoclave will not operate otherwise. After sterilization, the pressure must drop to a safe level before opening the door. Regular inspection of the pressure-release valve and door-locking mechanism ensures safe and effective long-term use.
