They are required there to sterilise medical devices, culture media or laboratory waste using a validatable process. Steam, pressure and heat create conditions within the autoclave\u2019s sterilisation chamber under which germs and bacteria are eliminated and pathogens are killed.  <\/p><p>In the basic version, every VARIOKLAV\u00ae BlueLine autoclave consists of a pressure vessel made of high-quality stainless steel, which can be sealed pressure-tight with a solid door. Heating elements integrated into the jacket then heat the steam inside the sterilisation chamber. Digital control modules and additional module options enable optimal monitoring of all parameters even during the sterilisation process.  <\/p><p>The sterilisation process can be divided into four steps: The ramp-up phase refers to the venting stage. During this phase, all residual air is removed from the sterilisation chamber so that the steam can subsequently completely envelop the items to be sterilised. For particularly thorough air removal, the VARIOKLAV\u00ae BlueLine autoclave can be upgraded with a module for fractional pre-vacuum.  <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-797f497 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"797f497\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-836f1a9 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"836f1a9\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-755cbbd elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"755cbbd\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>In the second step, the sterilisation chamber is filled with saturated, pressurised steam. This steam consists of demineralised water and is generated by the heating elements integrated into the jacket. This heating phase is also referred to as the equilibration period, as rising temperatures only propagate through the items being sterilised after a time lag. An optional module for media temperature control with a temperature sensor facilitates the sterilisation of temperature-sensitive media and protects them from damage caused by thermal stress.   <\/p><p>Once the heating phase is complete, the actual sterilisation phase begins: the items to be sterilised remain in the sterilisation chamber for a specific period of time so that the steam can take effect. How long a sterilisation phase should last depends on the individual microbial load and the sterilisation temperature. <\/p><p>In the final step, the steam is vented from the sterilisation chamber and the items to be sterilised can cool down. Drying the items after sterilisation is particularly important, as their moisture content must not exceed certain tolerance limits in order for the material to be released for subsequent storage or use. For this purpose, VARIOKLAV\u00ae BlueLine sterilisers can be equipped with a vacuum drying module, which creates a deep vacuum at the end of the sterilisation cycle, thereby removing any residual moisture.  <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-493d395 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"493d395\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-efd20f6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"efd20f6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"950\" height=\"950\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sterico.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/LE-51024306-VKL25T_open-1-1024x1024.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-26201\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sterico.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/LE-51024306-VKL25T_open-1-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.sterico.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/LE-51024306-VKL25T_open-1-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.sterico.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/LE-51024306-VKL25T_open-1-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.sterico.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/LE-51024306-VKL25T_open-1.jpg 1535w\" sizes=\"100vw\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7694fa9 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"7694fa9\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-df8fff0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"df8fff0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Are you still unsure which autoclave best suits your needs and routine tasks?
