WLD-Tec SteriMax Short 118 mm – Compact Infrared Loop Sterilizer for Daily Laboratory Use

The WLD-Tec SteriMax Short 118 mm infrared loop sterilizer is designed for laboratories requiring rapid flame-free sterilization of inoculating loops, needles and small instruments in restricted bench spaces.

Its unique double-tube system combines a wear-resistant ceramic annealing tube with a quartz glass heating element, reaching sterilization temperatures of 900–950 °C within minutes.
Complete sterilization is achieved in 5–7 seconds, eliminating microorganisms without producing flames, combustion gases or aerosols.

This makes the SteriMax Short perfectly suited for laminar flow cabinets, anaerobic chambers and microbiology workstations where gas burners are prohibited.

Robust construction and passive safety

The fully stainless-steel housing resists solvents and UV exposure, ensuring long service life even in harsh laboratory environments.

A rear splash guard increases operator safety when handling pathogenic material, while the removable ceramic tube allows thorough cleaning between workflows.

An integrated residual-heat indicator warns users when the heating chamber is still hot after prolonged use, preventing accidental burns.

Ergonomic design for compact workstations

Seven self-locking angular positions allow the sterilization tube to be adjusted for optimal handling.

The low, stable base protects surrounding work surfaces from contamination and keeps the unit securely positioned during intensive use.

With its short heating chamber, the SteriMax Short 118 mm is the ideal choice for laboratories prioritizing compactness without compromising sterilization performance.
