Benchtop autoclaves with counterpressure
Our autoclaves are designed to cook, pasteurize or sterilize packaged foods to facilitate the development of new formulas and containers in the food industry and in the packaging industry.
They are compact, easy to install and have all the technology and versatility you need to carry out all kinds of tests: adjustable counterpressure, process regulation by up to 2 heart temperature probes, direct control of F0 and P0 values, calculation of the real Σ%F0 and Σ%P0 achieved after completing each cycle and programming of up to 11 segments of temperature and pressure.
Benefits
Our benchtop autoclaves are available in 3 models with capacities from 22L to 79L.
