This is a Great New Autoclave- We have personally been to Tuttnauer and trained on this unit. The Elara11 could be the answer to a lot of autoclaving needs in the Medical and Dental fields. In the past we have had a lot of people tell us they need the speed of a Statim but the Statim does not dry their loads properly. Plus, the Statim is not a Pre & Post vacuum autoclave. Well, the Elara11 has 5 trays versus the Statims 1 Cassette and your instruments come out dry in less time than the Statim. (We regulary see packs coming out of Statim Cassettes soak and wet after drying for a whole hour) Turn the Elara11 on when you come in in the morning and it will be ready to go in 15 minutes. It stays ready for 4 hours before going into sleep mode when not in use.
The Elara 11 also uses fresh distilled water for each cycle. So, you will use more water but the Elara 11 and your packs and pouches will stay cleaner. You do not use ChamberBrite in this autoclave so you save that expense. Also, you'r staff will not have to run that second cleaning cycle.
Your office will need a dedicated power line for this unit. We highly suggest a buck boost transformer be installed if your power is less than 214VAC or more than 235VAC on average.
