Vertical Autoclave NVA-401 – Laboratory Steam Sterilization Equipment

What Is Vertical Autoclave NVA-401? 

Vertical Autoclave NVA-401 is a very high-capacity laboratory steam sterilizer that uses pressurized steam at 121–136°C to sterilize instruments, glassware, liquids, and biohazardous waste. It is designed for large laboratories, hospitals, and pharmaceutical facilities requiring high-throughput, compliant sterilization.


Quick Summary 

  • Sterilization Type: Steam (121–136°C)

  • Capacity: 250–450 L

  • Pressure: 1.0–2.6 bar

  • Cycle Types: Gravity & Pre-vacuum

  • Best For: Large labs, pharma, high-throughput use


Product Overview

Vertical Autoclave NVA-401 is designed for very high-capacity sterilization in laboratory, clinical, and pharmaceutical environments. It ensures elimination of microorganisms and supports compliance with USP, ISO 17665, and GMP standards.


What Is This Autoclave Used For?

  • Sterilizing large volumes of instruments and glassware

  • Decontaminating biohazardous waste

  • Preparing bulk sterile culture media

  • Supporting pharmaceutical production workflows


How to Use a Vertical Autoclave 

  1. Load materials into chamber

  2. Add water and secure lid

  3. Select sterilization cycle

  4. Heat to 121–136°C

  5. Maintain pressure for required time

  6. Allow cooling before unloading


How Does It Work?

Autoclave uses pressurized steam to destroy microorganisms and spores. Air is removed through gravity displacement or pre-vacuum cycles to ensure deep steam penetration.
