Description
150L Automatic Autoclave (Pickup Only – Sydney)
This 150L Automatic Autoclave is a powerhouse designed for heavy-duty sterilisation needs. It operates on a single-phase connection and is ideal for home or facility setups. An electrician must perform a professional installation to ensure proper setup, but this can be installed at home in your garage. This is a recommended model for small mushroom farms. You can run this machine 3-3 times daily, giving you over 80-100 fruiting blocks daily!
Effortless Operation:
- Simply fill the water, set the timer, and let the machine handle the rest.
- The autoclave automatically purges during sterilisation with no manual intervention.
- A long beep will signal when the sterilisation cycle is complete.
