Description
Benchtop steam steriliser CertoClav EL 18L is a laboratory autoclave configured for steam sterilisation at 125/140 °C with operating pressures of 1,4/2,7 bar. The larger 18 L chamber accommodates bigger or more numerous loads than smaller benchtop models while remaining suitable for countertop installation. At 9,2 kg unit weight, the appliance balances capacity with practical handling for laboratory setup. It is offered as one piece for direct integration into steam steriliser stations used in research, analytical and teaching laboratories. From manufacturer CertoClav, the EL 18L high-temperature variant addresses cycles that require elevated temperature and pressure settings for demanding sterilisation tasks. The benchtop form factor preserves floor space and fits beside other laboratory appliances. Facilities that specify 125/140 °C operation with the corresponding 1,4/2,7 bar pressure range can use this unit for routine thermal processing of instruments, glassware and suitable media containers. Clear temperature–pressure pairing supports consistent cycle selection in multi-user environments. Overall, the 18 L CertoClav EL configuration provides a focused solution for laboratories needing higher-temperature steam sterilisation in a compact footprint.

Questions about Benchtop steam steriliser CertoClav, EL 18L, 125/140 °C with 1.4/2.7 bar
What is this article?
Benchtop steam steriliser CertoClav, EL 18L, 125/140 °C with 1.4/2.7 bar is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes CertoClav for laboratory use. It sits in Autoclaves & sterilisers, inside Heating, drying & cooling, in Lab instruments.
An autoclave sterilises with steam under pressure, typically 121 °C. A load that is wrapped wrong, or a liquid in a sealed full bottle, does not see that temperature, or it bursts. Chamber volume and the cycles it can run are the specification.
Temperature equipment either holds a set point or drives a sample toward one. An oven dries. A furnace reaches the temperatures of ashing and melting. A bath surrounds a vessel with water or oil. A circulator moves that fluid. An incubator holds the mild warmth of a culture. An autoclave uses steam under pressure to sterilise. The number that matters is the temperature the article actually reaches, not the number painted on the dial. Temperature is part of the international system kept by the BIPM and compared by EURAMET.
