Advancing eco-friendly sterilization: Astell's benchtop autoclaves

06 February 2024

In an era marked by economic fluctuations, soaring utility costs, and increasing environmental concerns, labs face immense pressure to optimize resource use.

Astell Scientific, a longstanding leader in energy-efficient sterilization solutions, has been at the forefront, providing a unique range of autoclaves tailored to the specific needs of laboratories within these industries.

Astell's Benchtop autoclave line, available in 33, 43, and 63-liter chamber capacities and featuring Classic and 'Ecofill' versions, represents a hallmark in sustainability and efficiency. The introduction of the 'Ecofill' system in the early 2000s marked a turning point, offering both convenience and significantly reduced water consumption, a crucial factor amidst rising environmental concerns.

What sets Astell's Ecofill Benchtop autoclaves apart is their independence from plumbing. These units require only a single-phase power supply and an integral water reservoir fill, enabling up to 15 filling-free cycles. Acting as a reservoir and collector for condensate and residual water, these autoclaves boast minimal water usage, making them among the most eco-friendly options available.

Astell's commitment to innovation is evident in the incorporation of a 5.7-inch color touchscreen, a standard feature across their entire range and a unique offering in the UK market. This advanced controller not only enhances safety during sterilization cycles but also empowers users to monitor, modify, and store cycle parameters for up to 5,000 cycles.

The angled pressure vessel design ensures optimal water utilization, resulting in reduced power consumption and quicker heating and cooling times, significantly cutting down cycle durations compared to similar models. This, coupled with the Autofill water recirculation system, establishes Astell's benchtop autoclaves as leaders in energy and water efficiency.

In essence, Astell's Ecofill autoclaves represent a commitment to creating economically viable, environmentally conscious, and user-friendly sterilizers. Astell continues to drive advancements in sterilization technology, providing solutions that align with modern demands while championing sustainability.
