Graham-Field Grafco Stainless Steel Dry Heat Sterilizer – Moisture-Free Instrument Sterilization

Graham-Field Grafco Dry Heat Sterilizer: High-Temperature Thermal Sterilization for Cutting Edges and Delicate Medical Instrumentation

For clinical practices, dental offices, orthodontic laboratories, and veterinary facilities, maintaining the surgical sharpness of fine cutting instruments is an ongoing maintenance challenge. Traditional steam autoclaves introduce high-pressure moisture that rapidly corrodes carbon steel, dulls delicate scalpel and curette edges, and leads to premature degradation of expensive tools. The Graham-Field Grafco Stainless Steel Dry Heat Sterilizer directly solves this problem by using high-temperature, moisture-free thermal processing. Operating at temperatures between 320°F and 360°F (160°C to 180°C), this device effectively kills bacterial spores and pathogens without any steam, pressure, or corrosive chemicals.

Constructed with a premium, rustproof stainless steel cabinet, this medical-grade dry heat sterilizer is designed for heavy-duty, daily clinical cycles. The unit is equipped with a burnout-proof heating system built directly into the internal walls, ensuring exceptionally even heat distribution throughout the chamber. This system functions as a main sterilizer or as a secondary dry-pack device to complement existing steam autoclaves. Standard utility trays are included, allowing instruments to be sterilized with their lids on and safely stored without risk of post-cycle airborne contamination. An intuitive bi-metal thermostat and front-mounted analog glass thermometer provide real-time temperature verification for effortless compliance and quality control.

Key Benefits:

• Preserves Instrument Sharpness: Uses dry heat to eliminate bacteria and microbial life without moisture, completely preventing rusting, pitting, or dulling of sharp edges.
• Burn-Out Proof Tubular Heating: Features an exclusive internal-wall heating system that delivers uniform thermal energy across all trays while offering superior operational lifespan.
• Zero Maintenance and Cleanings: Unlike standard autoclaves that require distilled water and daily descaling, this dry heat system operates chemical-free and requires no routine cleaning.
• Dual-Function Timer Controls: Equipped with a mechanical automatic timer with a continuous "Hold" function, allowing the sterilizer to remain pre-heated and ready for consecutive patients.
• Sterile Utility Tray Storage: Supplied with heavy-gauge, lift-out stainless steel trays designed to keep instruments secure and isolated from contamination during transport.
• High-Durability Stainless Steel: Rigid stainless steel internal chamber and outer housing provide excellent structural integrity and clean-room compatibility.
