Your Benefits of the MDT Chemicalve

There's no better way to extend the life of your instruments.
The Harvey Chemiclave is a fully automated and proven device for sterilizing medical and dental instruments without dulling, rusting, corroding, or otherwise impairing their properties.
The chemical vapor process protects your investment in instruments.

Chemiclaves vs. Steam 
Unlike the humid environment produced by conventional steam, the unsaturated chemical vapor method is a low-humidity process. No time-consuming drying phase is needed, because nothing ever gets wet. What's more, the heat-up time is shorter than for most steam sterilizers, and the heaters stay on between cycles to minimize warm-up time and increase the instrument turnover.

Safety Always
Harvey Chemiclaves use a proprietary sterilant solution, Harvey Vapo-Steril, which contains a trace of formaldehyde (less than one quarter of one percent). When used as directed, standard Chemiclaves operate well within United States safety standards for formaldehyde emissions. Technical data available from Barnstead-Thermolyne.

Easy to Operate
The EC Series Chemiclave Sterilizers' controls are easy to operate. No complicated microprocessors are used. An electronic timer times the 20 minute exposure phase and the purge phase.

Easy to Fill
Chemiclaves feature a unique diameter-indexed filling system.
The Vapo-Steril flow, automatically when full to prevent spillage. 
The system also prevents the use of incorrect solutions.

Easy to Purge
When the cycle is complete, a buzzer and light indicate "exposure complete". When the dial is turned to "depressurize", the Chemi-purge injects compressed air into the chamber to speed displacement of residual chamical vapor through the Chemi-filter.

Minimal Odor
Chemiclaves feature a built-in motorized Chemi-purge system which includes a Chemi-filter to virtually eliminate potentially objectionable odor.
