Ritter by Midmark M7 SpeedClave Manual Autoclave
Overview
Please note: The Ritter by Midmark M7 SpeedClave Manual Autoclave was discontinued on December 31st, 2010. We recommend the Tuttnauer 1730 Valueklave Manual Autoclave.
The Ritter by Midmark M7 SpeedClave Manual Autoclave offers simple three-prong, plug-in operation for standard electrical outlets. No plumbing is required as the Ritter by Midmark M7 SpeedClave Manual Autoclave has its own reservoir for distilled or de-mineralized water. With our front draining feature, it's easy to clean and maintain. And all controls and information are on the front and easily accessible to the operator. Three corrosion-resistant, stainless steel trays are standard, which means you'll probably never have to buy another tray. Low water cutout switch prevents "dry burning". The Ritter M7 will operate only when there is enough water present. This prolongs the life of the heating element.
Reset button saves time. It restores operation after the cutout switch is tripped and you have added water. The cycle timer regulates steam time from 0 to 30 minutes and automatically turns the Ritter by Midmark M7 SpeedClave Manual Autoclave off when the sterilization cycle is complete. This prevents over-sterilization, which can reduce the service life of your instruments.
A safety door protects the operator. It automatically seals when pressurized and will not allow the operator to open the door until the chamber is safely depressurized. The temperature regulator allows the operator to preset the temperature at a desired setting between 250°F (121°C) and 270°F (132°C). This control, acting as a thermostat, cycles the heating element on and off. A temperature gauge indicates the temperature inside the chamber. The gauge is graduated from 80°F (26.7°C) to 270°F (132°C).
A pilot light is on when the heater is on. It cycles off and on during normal cycle.
