Sterilization autoclaves, types and classes.

These equipment are especially used in laboratories to sterilize materials stable to heat, humidity and pressure; using a steam water pressure method, this being the most effective and fast; It allows to kill microorganisms, such as viruses, dangerous bacteria, sterilization uses the coagulation method to kill these microorganisms, there are materials that require a specific autoclave, depending on the conditions of the sample, according to the European standard EN 13060 of 2004, three basic classes of sterilization are distinguished.

Within the types of sterilizers are steam and vacuum, these same are subdivided into classes, we in KALSTEIN can offer you a series of sterilization autoclaves for your different needs, in the following link HERE , you can clarify your doubts and verify the technical file of each product, and without hesitation our advisors will attend you by the same way.

Types of autoclaves

Classification according to autoclave classes

The classes established according to the standard, focuses on the function and application of autoclaves, also takes into account the products or materials that we can sterilize in them; however, this classification only includes steam and vacuum sterilizers:

  • N-class autoclaves: lower-class autoclave, used to sterilize simple materials such as unpacked solid charges, has no vacuum pump, so no hollow or packaged materials can be sterilized, nor does it offer effective drying.
  • S-class autoclaves: is a class of intermediate quality, allows sterilization   individually packaged instruments, multilayer and solid instruments, are used in medical facilities where no complex hollow tools are used, also have fluid sterilization options.
  • Class B autoclaves: They are the most advanced steam sterilizers, sterilize all kinds of batches, including the most complex ones, are equipped with a fractional pre-vacuum, allowing complete elimination of air and free penetration of steam.
