Why order the SK601 from LabSupplies.com
Key Features
- Programmable control: high-precision controller stores up to 99 steps across 99 patterns with repeat operation.
- Independent overheat prevention: a separate overheat device protects loads and the chamber from runaway temperature.
- Operational monitoring: tracks power-on and operation time, power consumption, total CO₂ emission, and heat output.
How to Choose the Right Sterilizer / Autoclave
Dry heat sterilizers and steam autoclaves serve different loads, so match the unit to your samples, throughput, and facility power. Use these axes to narrow the decision.
- Capacity: chamber volume determines batch size; the SK601 offers 162 L for medium to high throughput.
- Voltage: verify available site power; select 115V or 220V to match your circuit.
- Footprint: confirm bench or floor space against the unit's external dimensions and weight before ordering.
