About This Product
Items to be sterilised go into the inner liner, and the lid locking device stops the lid being opened while the vessel is under pressure; after the sterilising period a condensing vacuum helps the load dry. Instruments, glassware, media and waste can all be processed, and this Autoclaves model is particularly suited to destructive sterilisation.
