Low-temperature biodecontamination chamber for instruments
Achieve rapid, reliable sterilization of critical instruments with low sensitivity to moisture, ensuring swift turnaround and enhanced operational productivity in laboratory and research settings.

Biodecontaminates and Sterilizes Laboratory Instruments
The VHP LS60 Biodecontamination Chamber from STERIS is a fully automated system designed to streamline the sterilization of laboratory and pharmaceutical instruments. Utilizing patented Vaporized Hydrogen Peroxide (VHP) technology, it offers efficient, condensation-free biodecontamination. Ideal for biotechnology and pharmaceutical sectors, it processes sterilized vials, pipettes, and glassware, ensuring contamination-free products. With a 2.1 cubic foot chamber, it supports high throughput, processing non-lumen loads of up to 12 lbs in under 30 minutes. Its compact tabletop design allows for easy integration into existing setups. The chamber’s USB port aids in electronic cycle data capture, enhancing process monitoring. Low sensitivity to moisture reduces cycle disruptions, bolstering reliability and instrument turnaround. The biodegradable Vaprox 59 Hydrogen Peroxide Sterilant minimizes equipment wear and environmental impact. Suitable for GMP and research environments, the chamber’s validated cycles adapt to various load configurations, ensuring compliance with industry standards. Optional engineering support allows for further customization to meet specific operational needs.
