The Tuttnauer EZ11Plus fully automatic sterilizer – the “The Perfect Primary Unit” – paired with the Valueklave 1730 manual sterilizer – “The Perfect Cassette Alternative Unit” – make the “The Perfect Pair.”
The EZ11Plus fully automatic sterilizer, “The Perfect Primary Unit,” is designed to meet the most current sterilization standards ANSI/AAMI ST55. The EZGlide self-locking door is ergonomically friendly and can be opened and closed effortlessly. The EZView display screen is full color and easy to read, even from a distance. As a convenience for the operator, the EZFill water reservoir can be filled with distilled water from the top of the unit, as well as through the front fill funnel located inside the door. The EZ11Plus model features an 11-inch chamber and includes five large trays. For those offices using cassettes, it can accommodate four full-size cassettes and four half-size cassettes. The EZ11Plus also features a dynamic air removal technology and an active closed-door HEPA filtered air-drying system to maintain sterility and ensure efficient drying of packs and pouches. It comes standard with a USB port to transfer cycle data, a network port to connect a local network and provide remote monitoring of the system, and an optional printer. Tuttnauer is the only manufacturer to offer a two-year warranty on parts and labor and an additional 10-year warranty on the chamber for all of its fully automatic autoclaves.
The Valueklave 1730 manual sterilizer, “The Perfect Cassette Alternative Unit,” is small, fast and economically priced. The bright, easy to use panel is designed with the operator in mind. Its fast cycle time sterilizes unwrapped instruments in 11 minutes (come-up time, sterilization exposure and exhaust). The seven-inch chamber size comes with three small stainless steel trays and there is no need for special cassettes. It effectively dries wrapped instruments and is larger than some single cassette units. The Valueklave 1730 comes with a one-year warranty on parts and labor and an additional 10-year chamber warranty.
Tuttnauer continues to offer the largest selection of autoclaves to the marketplace. Their single focus on sterilization and infection control enables them to offer products to help practitioners meet today’s challenging workloads and regulatory requirements.
