Description:

The Lisa MB17 is a microprocessor-controlled, Class B tabletop sterilizer engineered for dental and medical instruments that demand complete air removal and thorough drying. A powerful vacuum pump executes both pre- and post-vacuum pulses, ensuring saturated steam penetrates hollow handpieces and porous loads before a pulsed vacuum extracts residual moisture. Three wrapped and un-wrapped cycles plus Bowie-Dick and vacuum-leak tests are selected on an icon-driven touch panel, which also logs cycles to an SD card for regulatory traceability. The 17-quart (18 L) stainless chamber accommodates two large cassette trays, yet the footprint is only 17.5 × 16.1 × 20.5 in, allowing installation under overhead cabinets. Safety interlocks prevent door opening above 212 °F, and onboard water tanks recycle condensate to cut utility hook-ups. A 2100 W heater drives chamber temperatures to 280 °F at 34.8 psi, completing wrapped cycles in as little as 30 minutes.

Economic Advantage:

Compared with gravity autoclaves, Lisa’s double-vacuum architecture slashes wet-pack failures and the re-dry cycles that follow, saving staff time and extending instrument life. Its closed-loop water system and low 9.2 A draw mean clinics avoid costly plumbing and can run multiple loads on a single 120 V outlet. Traceable SD-card reports satisfy sterilization-record mandates without expensive external printers.
