Description
CertoClav Classic 115/121°C is a vertical laboratory autoclave developed from the established EL 18 115/121°C design, built in corrosion-resistant, electropolished stainless steel. An integrated timer controls sterilisation duration: when the timer is active the unit switches off automatically at the end of the cycle; without the timer the autoclave is switched off manually. The chamber offers a nominal volume of 18 l in a vertical arrangement, making the instrument suitable for sterilising unpackaged solids without hollow bodies, liquids, bottles, instruments and plastics. Further typical uses include food preservation, culture-media preparation and waste sterilisation. From manufacturer CertoClav, the scope of delivery comprises a stable instrument plate with feet and minimum water-level indicator plus a power cable. Overall height is 600 mm, net weight 8,80 kg and gross weight 13 kg, providing a compact, practical autoclave for routine laboratory sterilisation tasks at the 115/121°C working range.

Questions about CertoClav Classic 115/121°C
What is this article?
CertoClav Classic 115/121°C 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.
