High-Capacity Steam Sterilizers
STERIS high-capacity steam sterilizers are designed for hospitals and ambulatory surgery centers that require efficient processing of large volumes of surgical instruments. Often referred to as large autoclaves, products such as the AMSCO™ 600 Medium Steam Sterilizer help sterile processing departments maximize throughput, reduce workflow bottlenecks, and support instrument availability throughout the day.
Ideal for: Hospitals, high-volume SPDs, surgery centers, and facilities focused on throughput and workflow efficiency.
Small Steam Sterilizers (Autoclaves)
STERIS compact steam sterilizers provide reliable healthcare sterilization in facilities where space is limited, but instrument turnaround remains critical. These smaller steam sterilizers are designed to support surgical instrument processing while maintaining a smaller installation footprint.
Ideal for: Ambulatory surgery centers, outpatient facilities, clinics, and sterile processing areas with limited available space. Often used by hospitals as a dedicated quick-turn sterilizer.
