The NEW ProfiClave 10 is a fully automated bench top Agar/Media Preparator from Biotool for the fastest processing of up to 9L of ready to dispense media.

Intuitive software accessible via a touch screen gives access to 20 programmes each selectable for single or double heating cycles, autoclave mode or heating mode. The time-delay and temperature timer functions enable agar pouring to commence at the beginning of the working day and coupled with fast cool down provide increased productivity and convenience.

The front panel houses all user control functions and parameter printout and the unit comes complete with stainless steel cuvette, built in pressure pump against flash boiling, extra strong magnetic stirrer, sterile filter for pressurisation and easy vessel access, no-bolts or tools necessary.

The unique pressure correction adjusts the boiling point relative to ambient pressure and optimizes deaeration. 9L of Agar are ready for pouring in only one hour.

Used together with one of Biotool Petri dish filling systems, the Proficlave 10 provides the complete solution for professional media preparation.

The complete range of BioTool media preparation products will be shown at Analytica 2006.
