Benchmark Scientific B4000-18 BioClave 16 Benchtop Autoclave 18L Capacity

Despite the space-saving exterior dimensions of the Bioclaves, the stainless steel chambers are surprisingly large, accommodating a variety of liquids, media, instruments, glassware, plasticware and other common laboratory items.

Includes a mechanical and electrical safety interlock that prevents the door from being opened until the pressure has reached zero PSI.

With large digital displays and fully automatic operation, all segments of the cycle (fill, sterilize, exhaust and dry) commence and run to completion by simply pressing the start button.

Data output via built in USB port or choose the optional thermal mini-printer for providing a record of sterilization parameters.

The new 18 liter BioClave features a larger, 250mm tall chamber and offers three cycle options (standard programs), which are preset for use with liquids, wrapped instruments or unwrapped instruments/plasticware.

A fourth option "Dry Only" is also available for additional drying time to be added to the end of a cycle.

For special applications, requiring variations in cycle parameters, all settings on the BioClave 18 are fully adjustable.
