VERSAV50 — Laboratory Vertical Autoclave · 50L Useful Volume · Vacuum Pulse
OVERVIEW
The versav50 vertical pulse vacuum autoclave 50l is a fully automated steam sterilizer with pulse vacuum exhaust, integrated drying, and rapid cooling for liquid cycles. Designed for routine sterilization of packed/unpacked loads, dressings, equipment, rubber, liquids, culture media and laboratory waste, it offers a 50 L useful chamber volume made from medical‑grade AISI‑316L stainless steel.
The VERSAV50 is built for safety and traceability: it features a touch LCD displaying pressure, temperature and cycle status, a built‑in printer for GLP‑compliant documentation, RS232 and USB interfaces, and a 0.22 μm sterile air filter to prevent re‑contamination during vacuum break. With microprocessor‑controlled cycles, programmable exhaust methods (quick/low), and comprehensive safety interlocks, it is a reliable workhorse for any laboratory requiring consistent sterilization results.
Robust 50L vertical autoclave with vacuum pulse and AISI‑316L chamber for safe, documented sterilization of liquids, instruments and waste. VERSAV50 combines touch‑screen control, built‑in printer, RS232/USB and a 0.22 μm air filter for reliable, traceable everyday use.COLO.Science · Practical and robust equipment for everyday laboratory workflows.
