The Importance of Flexibility in Laboratory Equipment:
13A autoclaves offer laboratories greater flexibility when it comes to installation, helping facilities integrate essential sterilisation equipment without relying on complex electrical infrastructure. With laboratories often working within changing and limited spaces, the ability to install an autoclave using a standard 13A electrical supply can provide greater choice over positioning and simplify installation planning.
As laboratories continue to evolve, flexible equipment that can adapt to different working environments is becoming increasingly important. 13A Plug & Play installation provides a practical, flexible approach, helping laboratories introduce reliable sterilisation equipment while minimising unnecessary installation requirements and disruption.
How 13A Plug and Play Installation Improves Flexibility:
The new Touchclave-V+ Eco autoclave features 13A plug and play installation, delivering greater flexibility by allowing a connection to a standard 13A electrical supply. This can make it easier to integrate the autoclave into existing laboratory environments, providing greater choice over positioning without the need for extensive electrical modifications.
For laboratories adapting existing spaces, relocating equipment or working with limited infrastructure, this flexibility can help simplify installation and reduce disruption. It also allows sterilisation equipment to be incorporated more easily into different laboratory layouts and working environments.
Making Better Use of Laboratory Space:
Laboratory space can often be limited or restricted, making the size and installation requirements of autoclaves a crucial deciding factor before procurement. Autoclaves often require a significant amount of space, particularly when additional infrastructure is needed for the installation.
The Touchclave-V+ Eco has been purposefully designed with flexibility in mind. Its 13A Plug & Play installation allows the autoclave to connect directly to a standard 13A electrical supply, giving laboratories greater flexibility when deciding where the unit can be positioned.
Combined with its compact footprint, this installation flexibility makes the Touchclave-V+ Eco particularly well suited to laboratories where space is limited. The combination allows facilities to make better use of available space and integrate sterilisation equipment into different working environments without extensive infrastructure changes.
Why Installation Requirements Matter When Choosing an Autoclave:
Multiple considerations need to be made before purchasing an autoclave, these includes installation requirements, available space and existing infrastructure.
One of the key considerations for facilities to consider is the electrical supply available, many autoclave machines require existing infrastructure to place the autoclave in that space, so there is no availability to be able to move the autoclave to a more ideal location.
The Touchclave-V+ Eco: Flexible Sterilisation for Modern Laboratories:
The Touchclave-V+ Eco brings together a range of features designed to provide greater flexibility when integrating sterilisation equipment into modern laboratory environments.
Its 13A Plug & Play installation allows connection to a standard electrical supply, while its compact footprint provides greater flexibility where laboratory space is limited. With low power output and energy-efficient operation, testing has demonstrated energy savings of up to 40–50% per cycle, helping laboratories reduce energy consumption while maintaining reliable sterilisation performance.
Flexible Sterilisation for Modern Laboratories:
As laboratory environments continue to evolve, flexibility is becoming increasingly important when selecting sterilisation equipment. From available space and electrical infrastructure to energy consumption, laboratories need solutions that can adapt to their individual requirements.
The Touchclave-V+ Eco combines 13A Plug & Play installation, a compact footprint and energy-efficient, low-power operation, providing a practical approach to flexible sterilisation. With testing demonstrating energy savings of up to 40–50% per cycle, it can also help laboratories optimise energy use as part of their wider efficiency goals.
