What Is An Autoclave (Tabletop)?
A tabletop autoclave is a compact, self-contained steam sterilization unit designed for efficient and reliable disinfection of medical instruments and materials within clinical settings. Utilizing saturated steam under pressure, it effectively eliminates all forms of microbial life, including bacteria, viruses, fungi, and spores, ensuring the highest standards of patient safety and infection control. Its compact design makes it ideal for smaller clinics, dental practices, laboratories, and specialized departments where space is at a premium, while still offering the powerful sterilization capabilities of larger industrial units.
- <b>Function:</b> Autoclaves (Tabletop) operate on the principle of moist heat sterilization. Saturated steam at elevated temperatures (typically 121°C or 134°C) and pressure penetrates porous materials, denaturing essential microbial proteins and enzymes, leading to rapid and complete sterilization.
- <b>Key Clinical Applications:</b>
- Sterilization of surgical instruments (scalpels, forceps, retractors)
- Disinfection of dental instruments (handpieces, burs, mirrors)
- Processing of laboratory glassware and media
- Sterilization of diagnostic kits and consumables
- Decontamination of waste materials in smaller volumes

We offer a comprehensive installation service tailored to your clinic or laboratory environment in Kenya. Our expert technicians will guide you through each step, from initial site preparation to final calibration, ensuring a seamless integration of your new equipment.
- Site Preparation: Prior to delivery, we will work with you to identify an optimal installation location. This typically requires a stable, level surface capable of supporting the autoclave's weight, adequate ventilation to dissipate heat, and access to a suitable power outlet (specific voltage and amperage requirements will be provided). For water-reservoir models, proximity to a clean water source may also be considered.

- Installation Steps: Upon arrival, our certified technicians will unpack the autoclave, inspect it for any shipping damage, and position it in the prepared location. They will then connect it to the power supply and, if applicable, to the water source. All protective packaging and transport restraints will be removed.
- Initial Testing and Calibration: Following physical installation, a thorough series of initial tests will be conducted. This includes functional checks of all components, cycle initiation, and completion. Crucially, our technicians will perform calibration checks to ensure the autoclave is accurately reaching and maintaining the specified sterilization temperatures and pressures according to industry standards and manufacturer specifications. A calibration certificate will be provided upon completion of the service, confirming the unit's readiness for use.
