Description:

The Tuttnauer EZ10 Automatic Autoclave is a fully automatic, closed-door cassette sterilizer that fills, sterilizes, exhausts, and HEPA-filtered dries at the push of a single button. Its 10 in × 19 in stainless-steel chamber holds up to four trays or three full plus three half IMS cassettes and processes loads under microprocessor control using preset programs for unwrapped instruments, wrapped/porous packs, glassware, and an additional Dry-Only mode. A high-efficiency air pump circulates hot air after sterilization for rapid, contamination-free drying, while safety interlocks prevent the door from opening under pressure and a low-water sensor halts the cycle if the 0.8-gallon internal reservoir runs low. Audible and visual alerts, a front-mounted drain valve, and an optional built-in printer simplify compliance and maintenance, and the 21.5 × 20 × 14.4-inch footprint fits most countertops or mobile carts.

Economic Advantage:

By combining one-touch automation with active closed-door drying, the EZ10 slashes turnaround time compared to manual or gravity autoclaves—eliminating staff babysitting and minimizing wet-pack failures. Its small water requirement (≈0.8 gal reservoir serving multiple cycles), 120 V/1,400 W plug-and-play power, and low-maintenance disposable HEPA filter lower utility and service costs, while the flexible chamber capacity lets clinics sterilize mixed loads without purchasing multiple units or extra instrument sets.
