• Space-saving design with lid opening upward.
• Standard built-in cooling fan for faster post-sterilization cooling.
• Dual lid safety interlock prevents lid opening when a cycle is in progress, the chamber is pressurized, or the temperature exceeds 97°C.
• Agar sterilization mode sterilizes agar, and then automatically keeps it warm to prevent it from solidifying.
• One-touch lever to easily open and close chamber lid.
• Agar melting mode for rapidly melting agar and then automatically maintaining it at liquid temperature, or for a hot and faster start-up.
• Door-closure sensor prevents a cycle from starting unless the door is closed properly.
• In-process display shows the status and the progress of sterilization cycle.
• HVA-85: 85 liters, 16.5" D x 24.2" H.

Programs

1. For agar: Heating -> Sterilization -> Exhaust (from no exhaust to slow, programmable) -> Warming -> Completion

2. For liquids: Heating -> Sterilization -> Auto steam exhaust or ambient cooling (programmable) -> Completion

3. For solids: Heating -> Sterilization -> Auto exhaust (fast) -> Completion

Safety Devices
