Standard Features

The common control system fitted to every autoclave in the Rodwell range. The MP25 has evolved to be one of the finest laboratory instrument control systems on the market today. What sets this system apart from any other control system is that it is totally interchangeable. The same MP25 control system can be used with any Rodwell autoclave, from a bench top to a large square chambered vacuum machine.

MP25 Options

25 programs

Can be programmed and stored by the laboratory Supervisor.

Smart card access system

  • Allows programs to be stored and locked off by a supervisor
  • Operator cards give access to pre-programmed cycles only
  • Available with or without operator smartcard access for operator access

Load Activated Sterilise timer

(On/Off) prevents the sterilise timer from starting until the chamber and load have reached set point temperature.

Free steam timer (adjustable by time)

Holds the chamber at approximately 100°C (without pressurising) for a pre-determined time during the heating period and allow efective steam penetration into the load.

Delayed start (24 hour clock)

Timer option allows the autoclave to be pre-programmed at a pre-determined time so the autoclave completes a cycle just before the lab arrives for work the following morning for pre-prepared warm media.

Adjustable Stay Warm (on/off)

Keeps the chamber warm at the end of the cycle for pourable media. This is adjustable to allow the operator to select the optimum temperature.

Instrument Cycles (programs 21 to 24 only)

Exhausts the chamber at the end of the cycle for dryer glassware and instruments upon completion.
