Following the
recent announcement that Lab3 is to re-introduce the popular Boxer range of
autoclaves, the first models to be released by this specialist laboratory
supplies company will make up part of a developing ECO range. As the model name suggests these are designed
specifically to bring greater economies to steam sterilisation applications;
since steam is only generated when an autoclave operation is required energy
consumption and water requirements are significantly reduced.
Two Boxer ECO
models are initially being introduced by Lab3, the BL3-200-100 which has a 95
litre capacity and the BL3-200-200 autoclave with a larger 180 litre
capacity. Both autoclaves offer the
convenience of front loading with a load height of just 850mm, the door
featuring a single action closure mechanism which makes opening and closing
easier. This was a notable feature of
the original Boxer brand and has been retained in the new re-engineered
machines.
Both the new autoclaves are electrically heated and offer an operational
temperature range up to 136°C and pressure of
2.2 bar. All parameter settings are
easily made via a large, clear touch screen mounted on the front of the
autoclave and once process temperature and time have been set the cycle is
automatic, a graphical indication of the real-time process status being
permanently displayed.
The new free-standing Boxer autoclaves from Lab3 have their chambers
finished in polished grade 316 stainless steel; the BL3-200-100 with a chamber
size of 480mm x 345mm x 565mm whilst the larger model BL3-200-200 measures
480mm x 510mm x 730mm. As standard each
autoclave is supplied with two stainless steel loading shelves.
Only to be expected
of a company with an outstanding reputation for quality and workplace safety,
these Boxer Autoclaves comply with current UK
and EU safety regulations. They have full Insurance Approval for pressure
vessel design and construction and are CE Marked under the Pressure Equipment
Directive PD5500:2000 Cat 3, Certificate Number CEN-068752/B1.
Directors at Lab3 are so confident in the build quality of the new Boxer
brand and assurances of superb, durable performance all models are backed by a 3 year warranty.
