Yamato Scientific autoclaves and sterilizers deliver validated, repeatable sterilization for instruments, glassware, liquids, and culture media across research, clinical, and production labs. LabSupplies.com is an authorized Yamato dealer offering the full range — compact benchtop steam autoclaves, large-capacity steam sterilizers with and without drying, and dry-heat sterilizers — from 18 L to 110 L. Every model ships from USA inventory.
Types of sterilizer
-
Compact steam autoclaves — benchtop top-loading units (18–30 L) for instruments and small glassware loads; economical and space-saving (SK series).
-
Steam sterilizers with dryer — high-pressure steam sterilization plus an integrated drying cycle (150–180°C) so loads come out dry and ready to use (SM series, 20–80 L).
-
Steam sterilizers without dryer — large-capacity programmable autoclaves with multiple courses for instruments, liquids, and media (SN, SQ, SQL series, 32–110 L).
-
Dry-heat sterilizers — hot-air sterilization for moisture-sensitive items and glassware where steam isn't suitable (SK natural/forced-convection dry sterilizers, 99–300 L).
Key selection criteria
-
Steam vs dry heat — steam for most instruments, liquids, and media; dry heat for moisture-sensitive items, powders, and oils.
-
Capacity — 18 L benchtop to 110 L floor-standing; size to your peak load.
-
Drying — choose a with-dryer model (SM) if loads must come out dry; otherwise a without-dryer model (SN/SQ/SQL).
-
Cycle programs — instrument, liquid, media-melt, and keep-warm courses for mixed workloads.
-
Temperature & pressure — sterilization to 135°C / 0.255 MPa on larger models.
-
Safety — lid interlocks, pressure-relief valves, and self-diagnostics protect operators.
