Its door opens to 110 degrees, making loading instruments convenient and easy. You can monitor device processing remotely and in real time on smartphones or tablets. The autoclave reduces water consumption by up to 40%, making it an environmentally friendly option. Its intuitive touchscreen control panel displays programs, cycle times and water levels, among other useful information. Barcode traceability allows for the tracking and recording of instrument sterilization cycles and expiration date information.
