Areas of Use

Astells SQUARE-autoklaver dekker et bredt spekter av steriliseringsbehov — fra kostnadseffektiv hverdagssterilisering i laboratorier til storskala industriell behandling og høykontainment-fasiliteter. Seriene er egnet for sterilisering av laboratorieutstyr, væsker, avfall og porøse laster som innpakkede instrumenter og tekstiler. Double Door-varianten muliggjør pass-through mellom isolerte soner, noe som gjør den særlig aktuell i BSL-3/4-laboratorier, rene rom og karantenemiljøer.

Functions

Alle modeller deler disse kjernefunksjonene: 5,7″ fargeberøringsskjerm, sikkerhetskoblet dørmekanisme (kan ikke åpne under trykk/temperatur), dampvakuumresistent dørpakning, termisk isolerte dører, overtemperatur- og overkroppsbeskyttelse, kjølesperre og nødstoppknapp. ECO-serien har manuell dør og media holdwarm/forsinket start. SQUARE og MAX har automatisk sideglidende dør. Double Door har automatisk dørdrift på begge sider og vannsparende resirkulasjonssystem.

Options and accessories

All four series share a common platform for options. The most important include integral steam generator (24/48/72kW), advanced pulsar vacuum (AVC001) for porous loads and drying, external jacket for improved drying or faster cooling (AAQ302/AAQ302C), IQ/OQ documentation package, FDA 21 CFR Part 11 software, remote maintenance and diagnostics (RDM101), Ethernet interface, BSL-3 compliance (AVQ006), loading system with external trolley and internal truck, water softener, blow-down vessel and stainless steel pipework. The SQUARE ECO has a simpler vacuum (AVC002) without drying capability. The Double Door additionally features an SPF seal (AVQ007) specifically for double-door machines.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

The four series are aimed at different needs and budgets within the same product family. The ECO is the simplest and most cost-effective (125–360L, manual door, heaters in chamber). The SQUARE is versatile with a steam generator, automatic/manual door and 7 sizes (125–735L). The MAX covers large-scale needs (600–1,400L) with an automatic sliding door. The Double Door is a pass-through with two doors for containment facilities (250–1,200L).

Yes, but the vacuum option is required (AVC001 for SQUARE/MAX/Double Door, AVC002 for ECO). Without vacuum, the machines are primarily suited for fluid and glassware loads.

Yes, by combining the AVC001 advanced pulsar vacuum with an integral steam generator and external jacket (AAQ302), dry output is achieved for all load types.

Yes, BSL-3 compliance (Category III, ref. AVQ006) is available as an optional add-on on all four series.

Cold water supply 2–6 bar, minimum 4 litres/min and maximum 25°C. Requirements may vary for RO, de-ionised or hard water. A water softener is available as an optional add-on.
