Yamato Scientific SM510 Microcomputer-Controlled Autoclave with PID Temperature Control

The Yamato Scientific SM510 autoclave is a benchtop, microcomputer-controlled sterilizer designed for biotechnology and clinical diagnostics laboratories requiring reliable sterilization and drying of labware and media. Key features include:

• Automatic high-pressure steam sterilization with a temperature range of 105°C to 128°C, ideal for effective microbial inactivation and molecular diagnostics sample sterilization.
• Drying function capable of operating between 150°C and 180°C to ensure thoroughly dried sterilized items, critical in bioprocessing workflows.
• PID microcomputer temperature controller with digital set and display ensures precise temperature regulation, essential for reproducible sterilization cycles.
• Sterilization timer adjustable from 1 minute to 999 hours, enabling protocols tailored for live-cell imaging preparation or synthetic biology sample processing.
• Equipped with Pt100Ω sensors and T-type thermocouples for accurate internal temperature monitoring inside the sterilization chamber and water bath.
• Safety mechanisms include earth leakage breaker, safety valve, and a comprehensive self-diagnosis system to prevent common failure modes such as overheating and dry heating, improving operational safety in biomedical engineering laboratories.
• Compact physical footprint with dimensions 44 cm (W) x 53 cm (D) x 108.5 cm (H) and an effective chamber volume of 0.047 m³ supports use in space-limited biotech and clinical research labs.
• Comes with 2 sterilization racks and a 5-liter drain bottle, optimizing workflow efficiency in biomanufacturing environments.

This autoclave is widely adopted in molecular biology, gene editing labs, and biopharmaceutical production pipelines where rigorous sterilization is critical. It is sold as used, with performance potentially below new equipment standards, intended for buyers who understand the as-is condition.
