Instrument sterilisation for busy dental clinics

Every reusable instrument, from handpieces and forceps to scaler tips and burs, has to be cleaned and steam-sterilised between patients. A dental autoclave does that job, and its class, capacity and cycle options decide what you can sterilise and how many instruments you can turn around in a day.

AGKEM’s autoclave is a Class B unit, the type designed for hollow, porous and wrapped loads such as handpieces and pouched instrument sets. Its 23-litre chamber suits medium to large clinics that need consistent sterilisation through the day.

Dental autoclave buying guide

Class B vs Class N vs Class S autoclaves

Small steam sterilisers are commonly grouped under the EN 13060 standard:

  • Class B removes air with a vacuum phase before sterilising, so steam reaches inside hollow instruments (such as handpieces), porous items and wrapped or pouched loads.
  • Class N is intended for solid, unwrapped instruments only.
  • Class S covers the specific loads its manufacturer validates.

If you sterilise handpieces or pouched instrument sets, a Class B autoclave is the usual choice.

What to check before buying

  • Capacity vs daily load: estimate instruments per day and how many cycles you can run.
  • Cycle options: 134°C for most metal instruments, 121°C for items rated for lower temperatures.
  • Vacuum and drying: important for hollow and wrapped loads.
  • Water: the Agkem unit has a water quality sensor; use the water type the manual specifies.
  • Records: printer or USB output helps keep sterilisation logs.
  • Space and power: allow for the footprint, weight and a suitable 240 V supply.
  • Service: confirm installation, warranty and routine performance testing.

Dental autoclave price in India

Autoclave prices vary with class (B or N), chamber size, vacuum and drying systems, record-keeping options, brand, warranty and service support. Class B units generally cost more than Class N because of the vacuum system. AGKEM quotes the 23-litre B Class Autoclave on enquiry, including any printer or USB option you need.

Care and daily use

  • Clean instruments before loading (an ultrasonic cleaner helps).
  • Pouch and load as the manual directs; avoid overloading the chamber.
  • Use the recommended water and keep the chamber and door gasket clean.
  • Record cycles and follow the manufacturer’s maintenance schedule.
