The CPHOS Baspa Series 23L B Class Autoclave is engineered for busy clinical setups needing efficient, high-capacity sterilization. Fully compliant with European Class B standards, this model ensures 100% sterilization of wrapped, hollow, porous, and solid instruments with its advanced multi-stage vacuum cycle and inbuilt steam generation system.
Features:
-
- Larger chamber for higher load capacity
- Same advanced features as 16L model
- Ideal for busy clinics and hospitals with higher instrument volumes
- Inbuilt printer and user-friendly display

Class B Sterilization Cycle (with Pressure & Vacuum Phases)
The Class B Autoclave follows a three-phase sterilization cycle that ensures complete penetration of steam, even inside hollow and wrapped instruments.
1. Pre-Vacuum Phase (0 to -0.9 bar)
Multiple vacuum pulses are created to remove air from the chamber. This drops the pressure to approximately -0.9 bar, allowing saturated steam to fully reach internal surfaces of instruments.
2. Sterilization Phase (+2.1 to +2.45 bar)
Steam is introduced and maintained at a constant pressure between 2.1 and 2.45 bar, depending on the selected cycle (121°C or 134°C). This kills all microorganisms, including spores.
3. Post-Vacuum & Drying Phase (-0.8 to -0.9 bar)
A final vacuum removes moisture from the load. Pressure drops again to around -0.9 bar, ensuring dry, sterile instruments ready for immediate storage or use.
