Large Capacity Sterilizer Without Dryer 50L Overview
The Large Capacity Sterilizer Without Dryer 50L (model SQ500C) from Yamato Scientific is a top-loading steam autoclave delivering a 50 L chamber and a 45 to 135°C operating range. Procurement teams source it through LabSupplies.com, an authorized dealer. Maximum sterilizing temperature reaches 135°C, supporting protein modification and routine decontamination workflows in research and clinical labs.
Construction pairs a SUS304 stainless steel chamber and cover with a bonderizing steel plate exterior baked in melamine resin coating, plus ABS resin trim. Top loading simplifies sample handling, while an integrated cooling fan shortens cool-down time between cycles. Operators run ordinary sterilization, culture medium and liquid sterilization, and culture medium melting from one unit.
Each sterilizer ships configured for a single voltage: SQ500C runs on 115V and SQ510C runs on 220V, letting facilities match existing site power. The chassis measures 33 × 25 × 43 in and weighs 308 lbs, riding on wheels for mobility. Yamato Scientific manufacturing carries ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015, and ISO 45001:2018 management-system certifications.

- Multi-mode operation: handles ordinary sterilization, culture medium and liquid sterilization, and melting of culture mediums.
- Programmable cycles: custom programs can be saved and recalled for repeated, consistent runs.
- Time-saving automation: timer start and pre-heating features improve scheduling and throughput.
- Mobile chassis: mounted on wheels with a cooling fan to shorten cool-down between cycles.
How to Choose the Right Sterilizer / Autoclave
Matching an autoclave to your workload means weighing chamber size, thermal range, control style, and the power available at your bench. Use these axes to confirm the unit fits both the protocol and the facility.
- Capacity: a 50 L chamber suits labs processing larger or batched loads; size the volume to your busiest cycle, not your average one.
- Temperature range: a 45 to 135°C span covers media melting through high-temperature sterilization, including protein modification work.
- Control type: programmable storage of custom cycles reduces operator error and speeds repeat runs.
- Voltage: confirm whether your site supplies 115V (SQ500C) or 220V (SQ510C) before ordering.
- Footprint and mobility: verify the 33 × 25 × 43 in dimensions and 308 lb weight against floor space; wheels allow repositioning.
- Cycle efficiency: timer start, pre-heating, and a cooling fan shorten turnaround when throughput matters.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the operating temperature range of the SQ500C sterilizer?
The SQ500C operates from 45 to 135°C, with a maximum sterilizing temperature of 135°C. That upper limit supports protein modification along with routine sterilization of instruments, liquids, and culture mediums.
How large is the chamber and what are the unit dimensions?
The chamber holds 50 L. Overall the sterilizer measures 33 × 25 × 43 in (L × W × H) and weighs 308 lbs, and it is mounted on wheels for repositioning within the lab.
What is the difference between the SQ500C and SQ510C?
The only difference is supply voltage. SQ500C runs on 115V and SQ510C runs on 220V; both share the same 50 L capacity, 45 to 135°C range, and feature set. Select the model matching your site power.
What materials are used in the chamber and exterior?
The chamber and cover are SUS304 stainless steel. The exterior uses a bonderizing steel plate baked with melamine resin coating, along with ABS resin trim, giving a durable, cleanable surface.
Can sterilization cycles be saved for repeated use?
Yes. Custom programs can be stored and recalled, so recurring protocols run consistently. Timer start and pre-heating features further streamline scheduling and improve cycle throughput.
Does this sterilizer include a drying function?
No. This is the without-dryer configuration. It manages ordinary sterilization, culture medium and liquid sterilization, and melting of culture mediums, with a cooling fan to shorten cool-down time.
