Designed and manufactured in Northamptonshire, UK, and in accordance with our BS EN ISO 9001/13485 Quality Management System, Logiclave porous load and laboratory autoclaves, are competitively priced machines intended to suit the requirements of both private and NHS hospitals.

LOGICLAVE POROUS LOAD STERILIZERS
The Logiclave porous load sterilizer is intended to sterilize porous and non-porous items by a method using saturated and pressurised steam. It is suitable for sterilisation of air entrained porous items such as linen, dressings, wrapped instruments and utensils, hollow instruments and instruments with lumens.

DESIGN

The in-house design of the autoclave is based on the key requirements of the standards, PD5500: 2003, BS EN285 1997, BS 2646 1993, BS 3970 Pt1, BS EN 61010, HTM 2010, C14 NHS model engineering specifications, HSE Guidance Note PM73

In addition, the equipment complies fully with the appropriate requirements of the Pressure Equipment Regulations 1999 (SI 1999 No. 2001) and is CE marked accordingly.

LOGICLAVE CONTROL SYSTEM
The Logiclave control system is based on the following hardware components:

Rugged industrial PLC type controller
Analogue input module
Temperature input modules
Digital input modules
Digital output modules
Full colour operator interface (touch sensitive screen)
Independent data recorder (where specified)
The Logiclave control system software has been specifically developed, for the precision control of the autoclave process. Program configuration, initiation and monitoring of the process are all possible through the ergonomically designed operator interface. The system can be simply retrofitted to any existing autoclave, which is often a cost effective and preferred alternative to replacing a complete autoclave.

DATA RECORDING
The Logiclave porous load sterilizer is supplied with a 40 column thermal printer as standard. Detailed records of each process cycle run, including critical times, temperatures, and pressures, are printed.

Program parameters may also be printed for validation records. The Logiclave system automatically archives to internal memory all logged cycle data for future retrieval, printing and analysis. Typically, up to the last twenty cycles are stored in the database.

Further options include, independent data recorders with either paper or graphical interfaces, provide assurance that sterilizing parameters have been satisfied.

LOGICLAVE SUPERVISOR
A PC based data acquisition system, operates over a industry standard Ethernet connection. The Logiclave Supervisor package can be connected to any number of Logiclave controllers, giving managers the ability to remotely monitor the status of each Logiclave, in real time.

All logged data generated by the Logiclave controller is automatically downloaded to a database on the PC. When reviewing the data, the integrity of the data is verified before being displayed.
