our company can configure these units with custom labeling on LCD interface if you're running a branded line or need specific protocol names displayed, and the USB data storage makes it easy to pull logs for batch tracking — just plug in a standard drive and it writes CSV files directly. The 18L and 23L capacities cover most benchtop needs, though teh 23L is better suited for facilities processing multiple instrument trays per cycle.
The Class B vacuum cycle pulls down to -0.9bar before steam injection, which is what you need for porous loads like wrapped packs or textiles — a Class N unit won't cut it for those. Temperature control holds at ±1°C and pressrue at ±0.1bar, so you're getting consistent sterilization across the chamber; the SUS304 chamber holds up fine under the 2.3bar max working pressure. Most buyers go with the 23L model for the extra depth (247×470mm chamber) because of that it fits standard 35cm instrument trays without cramming.
You'll want to run the B&D Test and Helix Test cycles on a weekly basis — the autoclave has those built in as selectable programs, so you don't need separate test equipement. The vacuum drying stage is aggressive enough that wrapped instruments come out dry in about 20 minutes or so, which is pretty much the benchmark for Class B performnce. Noise stays under 50dB, so it won't disrupt a quiet lab space.
Power draw is 1950W, and it'll run on either 110V or 220V (just specify when ordering) — the 4L water tank supports repeated cycles without refilling, but for back-to-back runs you'll want to check the water level between every 3-4 cycles. We usually have the BKMZA and BKMZB models in stock, though the USB data storage is standard only on the BKM-Z18/24B variants (confirm if you need that feature on the base model). Lead time is roughly 2-3 weeks for custom label or packaging requests.
One thing that catches some buyers off guard: the ambient temperature range is 5-40°C, so if your lab runs hot or cold, the autoclave may struggle to maintain vacuum effiency — it's not suited for unconditioned storage areas. Also, the 18L model's chamber is only 360mm deep, which is fine for small packs but won't accommodate longer trays or cassettes.
MOQ is generally 1 unit for samples, but for bulk orders we typically ask for 10 units per model. We can be flexible depending on stock.
Yes, we can provide CE and ISO 13485 certificates with the shipment. Just let us know which ones you need, and we'll include them in the packing.
Standard lead time is 15-20 working days for the 23L version. If you need it faster, we can check current stock and maybe ship within a week.
The USB stores data in CSV format, which you can open in Excel. If you need PDF, we can adjust the firmware for bulk orders.
We pack each autoclave in a plywood case with foam padding. It's fine for up to 6 months in dry storage below 40°C.
