Because results matter Because results matter
Sterility is paramount to the integrity and accuracy of research results. Contaminants could skew data, lead to erroneous conclusions, or endanger health. Whatever you need to use an autoclave for, you need it to work effectively.
Priorclave ensures every steam steriliser they build produces results you can rely upon for its lifetime of use. Such confidence is only possible because Priorclave remains one of the few autoclave manufacturers in the world to retain complete control of its supply chain, producing all principal components in-house at its London manufacturing centre.
Only Priorclave’s autoclaves utilise the advanced fully programmable Tactrol3® control system, which enables users to enjoy safe single-push button starts whilst fully gloved.

Priorclave’s front-loading autoclaves come in many sizes, each is designed and built with the same level of care and attention to detail. All of Priorclave’s front-loading models feature non-tip shelves for added safety! From the 40 litres electrically heated Benchtop to the large 700 Litre front loading autoclaves that have the option of being electrically heated, direct steam, or internal steam generation, every autoclave is fi tted with Priorclave’s patented door retention devices to guard against residual pressure. Both thermal and pressure locks are used to prevent accidental opening at load temperatures above 80°C and pressures above 0.2 bar to ensure the safety of the autoclave operator and those around them.
