Features
- Fully-jacketed Vessel Design.
- Cutting-edge and configurable PLC, the PRIMUS brand PRIMatic series is a PLC-based control platform designed to exceed the needs of any general-purpose, research laboratory, containment, or vivarium application. These platforms feature industry-leading, non-proprietary components and pharmaceutical-grade coding.
- 316L Stainless Steel Chamber. The vessel is insulated and mounted on a steel frame with adjustable feet on self-centering floor pads.
- Horizontally Sliding Doors are energy-efficient, safe, and operated by simple touchscreen activation.
- Rectangular chamber eliminates wasted space and reduces high utility costs common to cylindrical or elliptical designs.
- Polished Chambers to a mirror finish of <10 Ra. Surface finish can be just as critical in determining the corrosion resistance of austenitic stainless steel as the grade. Poor quality finishes can lead to disappointing performance of stainless steel. A highly polished surface will give the best performance in any specified environment.
- Non-Proprietary Parts are a hallmark of PRIMUS Steam Sterilizers, allowing for immediate diagnostic and replacement of worn components.
- Gravity, Vacuum, and Liquid Cycles: Low-temperature cycles and effluent decontamination are available for specific applications.
- Configurable Controls are adaptable to meet a variety of applications.
- Water Conservation Module is PRI-Saver® TRVPS system that offers up to 90% water savings.
- Predictive Maintenance Functionality included in our PLC-based controls allows for increased uptime through the proactive monitoring of critical components.
- Ease of Service is built into the design and delivered by PRIMUS Authorized Service Agents.
