The
BactiZapper™ has an asbestos-free core element that uses infrared heating to
produce 815°C (1500°F). It completely sterilizes in 5-7 seconds. The
BactiZapper uses well-proven technology to provide instant sterilization of
platinum inoculating loops, needles, glass tube/pipette mouths and various
metal & borosilicate glass instruments used in quality control and
research. It also has a lower temperature setting (500°C) that can be used as a
"standby" and extends usable life.
The
ceramic heating element is safely enclosed in a perforated stainless steel
guard chamber, protecting users from accidental contact with the extreme
temperatures of the core area. It is extremely compact, convenient and can be
used in anaerobic and aerobic chambers.
