Frequently asked questions
What is an infrared loop sterilizer?
An infrared loop sterilizer is a laboratory device used to sterilize inoculating loops and similar tools using high-temperature infrared heat instead of an open flame. It ensures rapid, flame-free sterilization, reducing contamination risks and improving lab safety.
How does an infrared sterilizer differ from a traditional Bunsen burner?
Unlike Bunsen burners, infrared sterilizers don’t use open flames. This makes them ideal for biosafety cabinets, cleanrooms, or any laboratory where flame usage is restricted. They offer more consistent sterilization and greater safety for users.
Why choose WLD-TEC infrared sterilizers?
WLD-TEC is known for producing high-quality, German-engineered sterilizers that combine safety, efficiency, and modern features. The SteriMax series includes models with smart standby modes, energy-saving functions, and compact designs—all optimized for laboratory use.
Which infrared loop sterilizer is best for my lab?
Choose SteriMax basic for general lab use.
Select SteriMax smart for added automation and energy control.
Go with SteriMax short for mobile or space-limited setups.
Pick SteriMax long if you’re working with extended tools or need a deeper sterilization tube.
Do infrared sterilizers require ventilation or special installation?
No. Infrared loop sterilizers like those from WLD-TEC are standalone devices that do not emit open flames or toxic gases, making them suitable for use without additional ventilation systems. Simply plug in and operate.
