Portable Autoclave LMPOA-A103

What is LMPOA-A103? 

LMPOA-A103 is a vertical, top-loading portable steam autoclave used for sterilizing laboratory instruments, glassware, culture media, textiles, and biohazard waste using saturated steam at 105°C–134°C under controlled pressure. It supports laboratory sterilization workflows in clinical, research, and field environments.

What is LMPOA-A103 used for? 

LMPOA-A103 is used for steam sterilization of:

• Surgical and laboratory instruments

• Glassware such as flasks, beakers, cylinders

• Microbiological culture media

• Laboratory textiles and wrapped packs

• Biohazard waste before disposal

• Research consumables in lab environments

How does LMPOA-A103 work? 

LMPOA-A103 operates using saturated steam sterilization:

1. Materials are placed in the vertical stainless steel chamber

2. Lid is locked using mechanical clamps

3. Water is heated to generate steam

4. Pressure and temperature rise to set parameters

5. Load is held for sterilization duration

6. Pressure is released before opening

Result: microbial and spore inactivation through moist heat exposure.

Where is LMPOA-A103 used?

LMPOA-A103 is used in:

• Pharmaceutical quality control laboratories

• Biotechnology research centers

• Clinical diagnostic laboratories
