Enviro Systems UVIC-750

• Sterilisation of heat-resistant instruments and glassware in laboratories.
• Depyrogenation of pharmaceutical containers and components.
• Drying and sterilisation of surgical tools in medical facilities.
• Heat treatment of certain food processing equipment parts requiring dry sterilisation.
• Sterilisation of packaging materials for sensitive products.

Typical operating temperature

Commonly operates in ranges from 160°C to 250°C for sterilisation and depyrogenation.

Typical chamber volume

For this class of equipment, chamber volumes typically range from 50 to 200 litres, depending on the specific model variant.

Power supply

Units of this type commonly require a 3-phase industrial power supply, typically 400V, 50Hz, with varying amperage requirements based on heating element size.

Heating method

Utilises electrical resistance heating elements to achieve and maintain dry heat within the chamber.

Control system

Typically features a programmable logic controller (PLC) with digital temperature control and cycle timers.

Construction material

Chambers are commonly constructed from stainless steel (e.g., 304 or 316L) for durability and ease of cleaning.

• What is the primary advantage of dry heat sterilisation over steam sterilisation?

  Dry heat sterilisation is particularly effective for heat-resistant materials that cannot tolerate moisture, such as powders, oils, and certain glassware, and it avoids corrosion issues associated with steam.

• What maintenance is typically required for a dry heat steriliser?

• Can this unit be used for depyrogenation?

• What safety features are commonly found on these units?

• Is specialist installation required for a dry heat steriliser?

Dry heat sterilizers are valued for their ability to sterilize heat-stable materials without moisture, making them ideal for powders, oils and instruments. Buyers typically appreciate their reliability and lower running costs compared to steam alternatives. When purchasing used models, industry practice suggests checking chamber condition, temperature uniformity, and calibration history. These units are known for durability and straightforward maintenance, though proper documentation and functional testing before purchase remain essential for assured performance.
