Considering upgrading your equipment? Nicolas Coomber looks at the benefits of upgrading your autoclave.  

We’re all looking for ways to save, cut costs, and reduce waste.  

So, imagine a powerful autoclave solution that will save your practice space, time and resources! That’s saving three ways, with no compromise to safety or performance. 

Introducing the STATIM® B G4+, a compact vacuum autoclave that will match bigger machines in every single way.   

Save space 

Whatever the size of your practice, space is always a precious commodity. Small but perfectly formed, the STATIM® B G4+ with its impressive 6-litre capacity will be more than enough to meet your needs while taking up very little room. Operating instructions are displayed on screen and, with an enhanced documentation mode, including instrument tracking, cycle logging, data storage and traceable load release, there is no need for bulky paper records or manuals, either. 

Save time 

In just 27 minutes, wrapped loads will be reliably processed. Time to go home? The STATIM® B G4+ can be programmed to keep on working after you’ve left. You can also set the chamber to warm before you open in the morning and run test cycles too – this is a flexible solution for every busy practice.  

As well as shorter cycles, you can open the drawer easily – with one hand – in order to reprocess two cassettes, or up to 12 pouches.  

This is an autoclave with improved automation. This means that it has been designed to be intuitive and minimise human input and intervention, leaving you free to get on with other tasks. If you never thought sterilisation could be an art form, the STATIM® B G4+ proves that this is not the case! Infection control workflows can become more efficient – faster and seamless, yet entirely consistent with the high standards of safety that you always strive to maintain.  

There are also automatic software updates, plus maintenance reminders, tips and tricks – all integrated into one unit. 

You can fill this autoclave according to personal preference – manually, or automatically. The STATIM® B G4+ has a built-in reservoir, that will hold enough water for three cycles, but simply configure it how you wish, for optimal daily use. With a water quality sensor, also an auto-drainage option to reduce the build-up of damaging biofilm, this STATIM® B G4+ has the technology to minimise damage and keep it in good working order, without you having to check if it needs emptying, for example.  

Save resources  

We all want to do more to protect the environment and think about how we’re using resources as well as the amount of waste we’re producing. The STATIM® B G4+ operates on a small footprint, and its enhanced digital capabilities also mean you’ll use less electricity but still maintain the highest levels of hygiene. With less paper waste as well as being more energy efficient, this is a solution that can help you keep a better eye on your bills, too.
