Description

UWE requires an autoclave to replace an existing Astell, model number ASB301. The autoclave is used for general laboratory biohazard waste disposal (fluids, plastics, agar plates, soil etc.). There is currently mains water supply, 3 phase (63amp) electrical power, drainage and a separate blowdown unit. Footprint of existing autoclave is 900mm by 1500mm with approximately 300mm clearance all round.

We would require a machine to operate at better performance than the current Astell. Please provide information on typical run times in comparison to the outgoing unit. We need to achieve a minimum sterilisation of 121 degrees for 15 minutes. Increasing the temperature to reduce the run time would be a preferred option for all loads. We would consider options that achieve equivalent or faster run cycles. We require the removal and disposal of our old Astell autoclave as well as delivery installation and commissioning of the new instrument. We will also be requiring options for warranty and servicing.

The autoclave and ancillaries must be delivered and installed and commissioned by 30th June 2019, with invoicing to be received by UWE and dated no later than 31st July 2019.
