Single Lever Lock Door
The autoclave uses a single-lever locking system for securing the chamber door. The supplied specification describes the door as a spring-press lifting door with a safety and single-lever locking device.
The door safety system is complemented by a pressure interlock, safety valve and low-water detector.
Microprocessor Control
A microprocessor control system is provided for operation of the autoclave. The system includes a digital temperature indicator and programmable digital timer ranging from 0 to 99 minutes.
Double-Wall GMP Construction
The autoclave uses double-wall construction with stainless-steel GMP construction. The outer chamber is specified as 304 stainless steel, while the inner chamber is specified as 304 SS, with 316/316L stainless steel available as an optional grade.
Air insulation is specified between the chamber walls.
Heating System

Sterilization Temperature & Pressure
The standard sterilizing temperature range is:
121°C to 134°C
An optional temperature specification of 150°C is also provided.
The working pressure is specified as:
1.2 kgf/cm² (15–17 psi)
The system can be upgraded for operation up to 30 psi, according to the supplied specification.
Water-Level Monitoring & Safety
The system includes:
- Water-level indicator
- Low-water detector
- Safety valve
- Pressure interlock
- Single-lever locking mechanism
These features are intended to support controlled operation and prevent operation under specified unsafe conditions.
