continuing with the little-known products (not shakers, not table-top fermentors, not freezers) that will, near-term (and IMO), sell like crazy...........
(off topic..... Tuck, they do sell centrifuges, but not in the context that I was talking with respect to Beckman...... they sell process-scale centrifuges to clarify (etc.) fermentation broths.)
Mobile Laboratory Autoclave
Anything that can be sterilized in a
wall-mounted industrial autoclave,
including fermentor vessels, chemical
reagents, glassware, culture media and
medical waste can be sterilized in this
mobile unit. This top loading electric
autoclave is fully programmable and is the
only autoclave of its type built to meet the
ASME pressure vessel safety code; a
standard of construction now required in
most of the USA and in many countries
throughout the world. Microprocessor
controlled, this sterilizer can regulate
temperatures precisely between 105º and
126º. With keypad data entry, sterilization
time is adjustable up to 180 minutes in
one-minute increments. LED displays
indicate temperature and sterilization time
remaining. Equipped with a pressurizable
door that swivels out of the way, this
top-loading steam sterilizer is convenient
to use, offering easy access to the
autoclave chamber.
Easily Handles Heavy Workloads
Mounted on four lockable casters, this
mobile autoclave can be moved easily from place to place and conveniently shared by several
scientists. Such mobility eliminates the need to carry workloads to a central autoclave installation,
eliminating the movement of sterile labware through populated hallways and remote environments.
NBS' vertical autoclave is ideal for steam-sterilization of fermentors, glassware and other labware.
Three stainless steel wire baskets are supplied to accommodate workloads in a single basket or in
groups of two or three at one time. An optional half-height basket accommodates extra tall containers.
The autoclave chamber is ruggedly built of heavy gauge stainless steel, completely free of
obstructions from sensors and pipe joints to facilitate loading and removal of contents.
SAFETY FEATURES
Heavy gauge stainless steel chamber is ASME-coded to meet pressure vessel safety
requirements.
120 VAC autoclave meets CSA approval.
Buzzer alert signals across room when sterile utensils are ready to be removed.
Safety switch deactivates autoclave when door is not fully closed, as indicated by flashing
display.
Magnetic safety latch disconnects power and depressures chamber should anyone loosen door
seal during operation.
High temperature switch cuts out heater to prevent overheating should temperature exceed 3º
above setpoint.
High pressure safety relief valve ejects steam if pressure rises above desired level.
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
Autoclave ready to use with no installation required; needs no external steam supply.
Heavy-duty stainless steel pressurizable door swivels out of the way for easy access to
chamber.
Largest customer support network helps keep your autoclave in peak operating condition.
BioFlo 2000 and 3000 fermentors containing liquid up to 6.6 L total volume (5.0 L maximum
working volume) can be sterilized in an upright position.
Eliminates waiting time common with central autoclaves.
Mobile and convenient to share among several scientists where needed.
Temperature constantly monitored to provide visible and audible signals that indicate
sterilization progress.
Cylindrical sterilization chamber ideal for tall reactors or small containers. |
