What Is the Classic Standard Autoclave Used For?
Its temperature, pressure and cycle time were chosen around media work, so the usual routine is: mix nutrient agar or broth in flasks or bottles, loosen the caps, load the chamber and press the button. The cycle then runs through on its own, and the interlock keeps the lid closed while the contents are still hot enough to boil over or crack glass — a safeguard that matters when students are nearby. Once the lid releases, the media can be cooled and poured into plates for inoculation experiments.
At just over 4 kg and 340 mm wide, it fits on a prep-room bench and can be carried between rooms, which makes it a sensible addition to school biology lab equipment in India where the microbiology corner shares space with other practicals. Wipe the chamber dry after the last cycle of the day and keep the lid seal free of spilt agar.

Frequently Asked Questions
What cycle does the Classic Standard Autoclave run?
The Classic Standard Autoclave sterilises at 121°C and an operating pressure of 1.05 bar, with a minimum sterilising time of 22 minutes. Its temperature, pressure and cycle time were chosen for sterilising culture media in school laboratories.
How does the interlock lid of the Classic Standard Autoclave protect users?
The interlock lid of the Classic Standard Autoclave cannot be opened until the temperature inside has fallen to a safer level. This prevents hot vessels or glassware bursting and liquid leaking out when the lid is lifted near students.
What is the largest load the Classic Standard Autoclave can take?
The Classic Standard Autoclave takes up to 4 kg unwrapped and instruments up to 290 mm long, inside a chamber 210 mm in diameter and 318 mm high with a capacity of 12 litres.
What power supply does the Classic Standard Autoclave use?

Is the Classic Standard Autoclave only for media?
The Classic Standard Autoclave is designed around media sterilisation, but items within its 4 kg load and 290 mm length limits can also be processed. For regular waste cycles, a larger chamber such as the Autoclave, Stainless Steel, 15 Litre is more convenient.
