Vertical autoclaves for laboratory use
Optimize your lab’s sterilization and drying processes with versatile vertical autoclaves designed to handle everything from microbial culture media to sealed specimen containers, ensuring thorough decontamination and preparation for a variety of laboratory and biopharmaceutical applications.

Sterilizes and Dries Laboratory and Biopharmaceutical Materials
The LVSA series from Zirbus Technology offers vertical autoclaves designed for precise sterilization and drying operations in laboratories, healthcare facilities, and biopharmaceutical environments. These autoclaves integrate an efficient steam generator and vacuum pump set, significantly reducing heating and cooling times compared to conventional systems. They adapt to a variety of applications, from sterilizing laboratory reagents and glassware to decontaminating waste and sealed specimen containers.
With chamber volumes ranging from 80 to 153 liters, the LVSA models handle diverse batch processing needs, supported by options such as exhaust air filtration for handling pathogenic substances. The SteriTouch control interface offers intuitive operation, while advanced features like the steam-air mixture method ensure accurate temperature control for closed container sterilization.
These autoclaves comply with stringent S2/S3 laboratory standards, featuring construction materials that resist corrosion for extended service life. Coupled with a rapid water recooling system, they enhance productivity by shortening cycle times. Customization options, including chamber size and auxiliary components, are available to tailor the system to your specific laboratory requirements.
