Astell benchtop 'Ecofill' units are one of the most energy efficient autoclaves available. The pressure vessel design ensures the absolute minimum amount of water is used during a sterilisation cycle, which not only means comparably low power consumption, but also very quick heating and cooling. A benchtop autoclave has a variety of uses, being suitable for sterilising laboratory glassware, plastic receptacles and containers, petri dishes, unwrapped instruments, media, and occasional discard loads. The ‘Ecofill’ autoclave has an integral reservoir and an in-built 'autofill' water recirculation system. Once the reservoir is filled, this provides water for up to 15 cycles, and also acts as a collection vessel for condensate and the water that is automatically returned from the chamber at the end of each cycle, minimising water usage.
