Description

8-Litre Class S Sterilization With a 12-Minute Flash Cycle on Standard 110V

The Flight Clave8+ is the smallest chamber in the Flight Clave line and the one that fits an existing operatory without an electrical change. It runs on a standard 110 volt outlet, sterilizes an unwrapped load in a 12 minute flash cycle, and uses steam-injected pressure pulsing with an independent steam generator to displace air from the chamber before sterilization begins. Air-assisted drying with an integrated compressor closes the cycle, so instruments come out dry behind a door that stays locked throughout.

Key Features and Benefits

  • Class S steam sterilizer with air-assisted drying technology
  • Runs on a standard 110 V supply, so no dedicated circuit is needed
  • 12 minute unwrapped flash cycle
  • Five preset cycles: Flash/Unwrapped, Wrapped, Liquid, Textile and Prion
  • Independent steam generator for positive pressure displacement and pulsating steam injection
  • HEPA filter on chamber air intake
  • 10,000 cycle internal memory with USB export, and a built-in printer
  • Distilled water reservoir with level sensor, 5 to 6 cycles between fills
  • Double door protection giving closed-door drying
  • Solid steel construction with European-sourced service parts

Clinical and Workflow Advantages

  • A 12 minute unwrapped cycle turns a set around inside a typical appointment gap, which is the practical difference between one instrument set and two.
  • The 110 V supply means it drops into an existing sterilization bay without an electrician, unlike the larger Clave B and Clave45+.
  • Closed-door drying keeps the load sterile through the drying phase rather than exposing it when the cycle ends.
  • 10,000 cycles of internal memory means cycle records are retained long enough to satisfy a retrospective audit without manual archiving.

Why Choose This Sterilizer

Most small-chamber sterilizers force a trade: cassette speed with very little capacity, or capacity with a long cycle. The Clave8+ takes an 8 L chamber to a 12 minute unwrapped cycle while keeping a built-in printer, HEPA filtration and a two year parts warranty, and it does it on the outlet that is already in the room. For a practice adding a second sterilizer or replacing a small unit, that combination is usually the deciding one.

FAQs

Flight Clave8+ Class S Dental Autoclave 8L With Air-Assisted Drying

Q: Does the Clave8+ need a special electrical outlet?

A: No. It runs on a standard 110 volt supply at 1600 watts, so it can go into an existing sterilization bay without an electrician. The larger Clave B and Clave45+ both require 220 to 240 volts.

Q: How fast is a cycle?

A: The unwrapped flash cycle runs 12 minutes. Wrapped and rubber or textile loads take 10 minutes of sterilization time plus drying.

Q: What is a Class S sterilizer and is it enough for my practice?

A: Class S uses pressure displacement with pulsed steam injection to remove air from the chamber, rather than the vacuum phase of a Class B. It covers solid and unwrapped instruments, wrapped loads, liquids, textiles and prion cycles. If your routine load includes hollow items such as handpieces, review the handpiece manufacturer's instructions, as some specify a Class B cycle.

Q: How many instruments does an 8 L chamber hold?

A: The chamber takes two or three trays and a wrapped load of about 3.3 lbs. It is sized for a single operatory turnaround or as a second sterilizer alongside a larger unit.

Q: How often do I refill the water reservoir?

A: The integrated distilled water reservoir runs five to six cycles between fills, and a level sensor warns before it empties.

Q: Does it produce cycle records?

A: Yes. A printer is built in, the internal memory holds 10,000 cycles, and a USB port exports cycle data.

Q: Do I need to run a Bowie and Dick test daily?

A: No. The Bowie and Dick test is a vacuum-cycle verification and is not required on the Clave8+. Follow your state board and CDC guidance for routine biological monitoring.

Q: What is the HEPA filter for?

A: Air drawn into the chamber during the drying phase passes through a HEPA filter, so the load is not exposed to unfiltered room air while it dries.

Q: What maintenance does it need?

A: Clean the door seal and exterior daily, the reservoir and chamber weekly, and the chamber and tank filter monthly. Replace the door seal every three to six months, and the silicone tubing, filters and seal annually.

Q: How does it compare to a SciCan Statim?

A: A Statim cassette autoclave is very fast but processes a single cassette at a time. The Clave8+ offers a larger 8 L chamber at a comparable cycle time, with a built-in printer and a two year parts warranty. Which suits you depends on whether you need cassette speed or chamber capacity.
