Compact Swiftlock Options & Accessories

AAP800 Multi Program Controller (SecureTouch). This option adds an additional 5 programs, giving 10 programs in total which can be set by the user to save and store cycle parameters for repeated use. The saved programs can then be selected via the touch screen controller.
AAR130 Integral Data Printer. The Integral Data Printer is essential where a traceable cycle record is required, it records temperature and elapsed time for each cycle, together with cycle stage messages and time of cycle. The printer ribbon system which provides fade resistant printouts employs a long life ink
AAR500 Sterilization Datalogger. Fascia or stand-alone datalogger for the recording and storage of cycle data
AAP007 Assisted Air Cooling. Powerful fans are built within the cabinet outside the chamber, these circulate ambient air over the external chamber walls, and result in an appreciable reduction in cycle times.
AAN014 Load Sensed Process Timing. This option allows the cycle timing to be controlled via the temperature achieved in the centre of the load. A wandering probe situated within the chamber is inserted into the load, or a load simulator, and initiates the sterilization period once the probe reaches the sterilization temperature. A Selectable ‘profiled overshoot boost’ feature speeds up the cycle and minimizes over-processing of media loads.
AAR120 RS232 Interface. This allows cycle progress to be monitored on an external computer equipped with suitable software (Computer not supplied). Windows itself provides a suitable interface, and any spreadsheet may be used to view the data.
AAR122 Ethernet Interface. Ethernet connectivity for a variety of applications.
