Vacuklav 31B+

 

No tap-water connection necessary
Chamber depth: 35 cm, 18 litres

The Vacuklav 31 B+ is a ”Class B" autoclave according to the European standard EN 13060 and therefore absolutely fit for the future.

It works according to the fractionated pre-vacuum method. This means: At first the air is evacuated from the chamber with a very effective vacuum pump. Then there is a repeated intake of steam which is always immediately pumped out again. The result is that at the beginning of the actual sterilization, there is no longer any air in the chamber or in wrapped hollow-instruments or in textiles which would endanger the success of the sterilization.

The Vacuklav is equipped with a fractionated post vacuum for effective drying as a prerequisite for long-term storage of packaged sterilized materials. Sensors and an innovative microprocessor control regulate and monitor the parameters necessary for a secure sterilization pressure and temperature.

The Vacuklav 31 B+ offers 5 programs, as well as 2 test programs:
Universal-Program 134°C/ 2 bar Vakuum-test
Quick-Program "B" 134°C/ 2 bar Bowie&Dick-test.
Quick-Program "S" 134°C/ 2 bar  
Prion-Program 134°C/ 2 bar  
Gentle-Program 121°C/ 1 bar  


The Vacuklav 31 B+ is designed as a “stand alone” device and only needs a power supply. Without any further installation the autoclave can be operated by its built-in water storage tank for demineralized water and for used water separately. For a more pleasant operating the Vacuklav can be connected with the water treatment system MELAdem 40 or MELAdem 47 to a water source and drain. The supply of demineralized water and the drain of the used water will happen automatically.

The required documentation of the sterilization cycles is carried out over the built-in interface connection to the report printer MELAprint 42 or to the connection to the practice PC. The documentation software MELAwin developed by MELAG is required for this.

Additionally, it is possible to connect the MELAflash CF Card Printer used to save the sterilization records on the MELAflash CF Card. The sterilization records can be read out on every PC with the MELAflash CF-Card reader.

aIncorporation in the practice network is effected by connecting the MELAnet Box to the serial interface of the autoclave.Thus, the sterilization protocols are imported to the user P.C. The MELAnet Box is fitted with independent software which places websites in the user network so that you can view protocols from any computer.

aTwo helix reference block systems, the MELAcontrol and MELAcontrol PRO are available for the verification of successful sterilization in a class B autoclave.

aThe documentation of the release is carried out with the MELAdoc system, consisting of the documentation pages and the MELAdoc label printer for sterilization packagings.

Vacuklav autoclaves are delivered with a mount for trays or cassettes included in the price of the autoclave. Combi mount A (for 6 trays or 3 standard-tray-cassettes) will be delivered as standard. Likewise different sterilization containers are available.
