TOMY Autoclave SX Series

Description

The TOMY Multiple Shared Use Autoclaves SX-700 / 500 / 300 are designed to meet
the sterilization needs for a wide variety of sizes and shapes of articles to be
sterilized especially in the washing room or central autoclave room arranged for
shared use among a few or several laboratories.

User-Friendly and Safety Features

Ergonomic Height Design

The SX-Series Autoclaves are designed to be the perfect height
to quickly load and unload articles into the chamber.

Easy operation using the “Top-open lid”

A top-open lid, which can be operated easily with a single hand and a single
foot, is provided. To open the lid, the lid lock is released by stepping on
the foot pedal locates at the bottom while pressing the lid down. The lid can
be opened with minimal effort owing to mechanical assistance. In addition, the
lid can be closed quickly just by pressing it down.

Intuitive Display

The LED display shows the working status for easy monitoring. The process
being performed is indicated by an LED indication lamp blinking in red.

Sterilizing course selection

The optimal sterilizing course can be selected from among five courses, such
as the liquid sterilizing course in addition to that for
normal sterilization.

Attentive Liquid Sterilization Course

When autoclaving liquid samples, opening the lid while the liquid
temperature is high may cause a sudden boiling. It is necessary to allow
the pressure and temperature to drop naturally without forced exhaust
after sterilization. The SX-Series Autoclaves have a LIQUID course that
automatically sterilizes like this process with a single operation. It
reduces spillage of media or solvent inside the chamber and supports
smooth shared use in your facilities.

Printer supporting to keep Sterilization Log

Do you have any experience where you were worried if the sterilization was
performed as set when you use a shared autoclave in a remote washroom or
an autoclave room? The Optional Printer can print out the operating
parameters, chamber temperature, chamber pressure, the temperature of
articles to be sterilized *, and the sterilization cycle process.

High Altitude Sterilization Program

Autoclave operates by generating steam under pressure and temperature.
Therefore, its sterilization process can be greatly affected by the
atmospheric pressure at the location where the autoclave is installed. The
SX-series Autoclaves allow users to operate even though at high altitude
place**.

More Secure Sterilization considering Heat Transfer Time Lag

There is Heat Transfer Time Lag when using the steam autoclave. The
display shows the ambient temperature inside the chamber, but the
temperature of the articles to be sterilized arrives later than the
display temperature. This is called “Heat Transfer Time Lag“. For more
secure sterilization, it is recommended to add the Heat Transfer Time Lag
to the sterilization time.

Automatically timer countdown by sample temperature w / External
Temperature Sensor

The SX series Autoclaves can check the temperature of articles to be
sterilized with an optional External Temperature Sensor. The detected
temperature by the External Temperature Sensor can be used to count
down the sterilization time (e.g. 20 min.). That means sterilization
will be done with the temperature of articles inside the chamber
automatically without calculating Heat Transfer Time Lag manually by
yourself. The detected temperature also works to open the lid safely
after sterilization. The lid can be opened after the temperature of
articles drops down* and it prevents the sudden boiling of liquid
sample. These features help you to save time to decide the
sterilization time and to reduce troubles of spillage for media or
solvent.

Secure Sterilization

Fine Pressure Adjustment</strong >

Secure Sterilization condition is created by saturated steam that
temperature and pressure keep the balance for a certain time. The SX
series Autoclaves heat water in the chamber and create steam. The
generated steam is discharged with air from the chamber to approach
the saturated steam condition. When air remains in the chamber, the
balance of temperature and pressure breaks and it makes pressure
rise. Fine Pressure Adjustment monitors temperature and pressure,
works automatically to remove residual air from the chamber, and
adjusts pressure to approach ideal conditions for more effective
sterilization.

Cooling Fan System

The SX series Autoclaves are standard-equipped with a dual-fan cooling
system, shortening overall operation time. The Cooling Fan System
reduces cooling time compared to non-fan operation. It will save you
time and give you more to focus on other things.
