Reactors with steam coil

A Pre-Vacuum Autoclave, also known as a High Vacuum Autoclave, is an advanced sterilization system that ensures complete air removal from the chamber before steam is introduced. By using a powerful vacuum pump, it allows steam to penetrate deeply into porous materials, instruments with lumens, and complex loads for thorough sterilization.

This type of autoclave is ideal for hospitals, pharmaceutical industries, biotechnology labs, and research facilities, where high standards of infection control and sterility are critical. Compared to gravity autoclaves, pre-vacuum models provide faster cycles, uniform steam penetration, and superior sterilization efficiency.

Constructed with high-grade stainless steel and equipped with automated controls, safety locks, and monitoring systems, our pre-vacuum autoclaves deliver maximum reliability, safety, and performance in demanding applications.

In order to provide uniform heating, the reactor is outfitted with an internal or external steam coil system. By transferring heat to the reactants inside the vessel, the coil ensures efficient use of energy, controlled reaction rates, and proper mixing. Depending on the process, these reactors can also be adapted for cooling applications by circulating chilled water or cooling media through the coils.
