take care of it in order to obtain optimum results and a trouble-free
operation. After reading this manual, operating the autoclave should be
straightforward. However, since the autoclave is built using high
technology sensitive components, no attempt should be made by the
user or any other unauthorized person to repair or recalibrate it.
Only technical personnel having proper qualifications, holding
technical documentation and adequate test instrumentation are
authorized to undertake repair or service.

Available optional configurations
Models of LABSCI 15LV are laboratory sterilizers designed especially
for the sterilization of instruments, liquids, and other materials in
hospital laboratories, laboratories & research institutes, food
laboratories and pharmaceutical facilities.
C
A special feature of the ELVC-D models is the fast cooling stage for
liquids. In this stage pressure in the chamber is increased by means of
compressed air to compensate the fast decreasing of pressure due to
the fast cooling. The fast cooling shortens the time required for safe
handling of bottles.
Note:
there is no cooling option for WR configuration
PV
Special feature of ELVCPV-D models is the vacuum pump that enables
air removal prior to sterilization and during the drying stage.
The advantages of the pre-vacuum sterilizer in comparison to the
regular gravity displacement steam sterilizer are as follows:
—
Removal of air pockets from packs and porous loads and most kinds of
tubes (rubber, plastic etc.) by vacuum at the first stage of the cycle.
—
Better steam penetration into the load; resulting in effective
sterilization.
—
Better temperature uniformity.
—
Better drying of materials with closed doors due to the vacuum
achieved in the chamber at the end of the sterilization cycle.
