High-Performance Autoclaves for Safe and Reliable Sterilization

Autoclave technology, also known as saturated steam sterilization, is primarily used to sterilize items that come into direct contact with the final product. This method ensures effective and uniform decontamination, meeting the strict requirements of the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and food industries.

Our customizable autoclaves, based on steam-vacuum technology, can process solid loads or those containing liquids, with volumes ranging from 30 to 24,000 liters per cycle, providing great flexibility for a variety of production needs.

Understanding that decontamination must be ensured at all times, SOFAST has designed compact, robust, and fully secure autoclaves, integrating innovations in decontamination, manufacturing, and automation. These systems not only protect the products but also ensure operator safety and environmental preservation.

Applications of the Steam-Vacuum Autoclave

Steam-vacuum autoclave technology is primarily used for the decontamination of items that have come into contact with biological contaminants.

It efficiently sterilizes a variety of materials, including component parts, textiles, vials, syringes, stoppers and caps, as well as various instruments.

Sterilization cycles are performed at temperatures above 105 °C, ensuring reliable elimination of microorganisms and maximum safety for the processed products.

  • Quantity per Batch and per Day

  • Load Weight

  • Loading/Unloading Method: Trolley, floor-level, etc.

  • Collection Tanks

  • Associated Treatments: Pre-decontamination washing, H₂O₂ cycle, etc.

Control, Automation, and Traceability:

  • Sterile fluid filtration, with optional in-place integrity testing
  • Recipe management and data logging system: batch reports, raw data, exportable to client server

Site Planning Study and Environmental Constraints

  • Site Planning Based on Environment
  • Containment requirements: P3/P4
  • cGMP environment
  • Autoclave type: single or double door
  • Adaptation of door orientation: lateral, vertical, hinged

Sizing and Utilities

  • Utility, connectivity, and scalability studies
  • Sizing of required utilities: electricity, steam, demineralized water, compressed air, N₂, etc.
  • Planning for waste disposal
  • Integration of a controlled steam generator if necessary
