Steam-air mixture sterilizers for pharma industry
The AMS Series of Pharmaceutical Grade Steam-Air Mixture sterilizers is a range of autoclaves designed for terminal sterilization using steam air mixture technology. Specially designed for the treatment of pharma grade materials and products that must be dry and arranged for further handling promptly after cooling, this sterilization method avoids any damage to pressure and heat-sensitive materials.
An optimal air ventilation maintains the temperature uniform in the sterilizing chamber during all process phases. These features make it suitable for sterilizing liquids in sealed or heat-sensitive containers, such as bottles, ampoules, vials, semi-open containers, bags, blister packs, prefilled syringes, pouches, contact lenses, and large sizes and small-volume parenteral (LVP and SVP).
Flexibility and versatility characterize the series devices available in different chamber sizes – chamber volume ranging from 830 to 25.000 litres (29 to 883 cu ft). The chamber is equipped with horizontal sliding double doors and the movement is controlled by an electromechanical device. The door tightness is guaranteed by gasket in Silicon FDA compliant swallowtail pneumatically pressurized by compressed air.
The AMS Series of Pharma Grade Steam-Air Mixture Sterilizers is designed, manufactured, validated, and documented according to the latest global practices and standards to facilitate customers’ compliance with current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMPs).
