AV Series

Flexible-layout steam sterilizer

The AV Series is a flexible GMP steam sterilizer for applications ranging from formulation and fill-finish to biotech, vaccines, labs and terminal sterilization. Choose from 25 standard chamber sizes and over 400 validated options to match your process, layout and automation standards. Cycles are engineered for reliable sterility assurance with optimized time, water and energy consumption.

Typical loads
Suitable for sterilization of a wide range of items, including:

  • Machine parts
  • Filter housings
  • Closure components (stoppers, plungers, caps)
  • Liquids in open or vented containers
  • Liquids in closed containers (SVP in vials, ampoules)
  • Glassware
  • Vessels with vent filter
  • Textiles
  • Contaminated materials

Features

Flexible design with validated options

Select from 400+ pre-engineered, validated options for a configuration that matches your specific requirements and layout constraints without custom engineering.

EN 285 compliance

To meet EN 285 requirements, the sterilizer can be configured with a full range of options for independent monitoring: separate sensors and recording systems, air detector, steam sampling ports, leak and Bowie-Dick tests. Qualification services are available to support these options.

Thermal insulation options

Chamber and piping insulation can be specified to match room grades and support long-term maintainability. Options include conventional ceramic wool with cladding, quick clip-on removable insulation designed for frequent access during maintenance and calibration and closed-cell elastomeric insulation suitable for cleanrooms.

Cycle development and validation support

We develop cycles around your loads and acceptance criteria, then document them in a qualification package aligned to your project scope. Risk-based cycle definition, mapping and test support help you reach a robust, repeatable process sooner.

Non-proprietary components

The equipment is manufactured with proven, globally available, industry-standard components rather than proprietary parts. Original spare parts can be sourced through SteelcoBelimed with appropriate documentation and traceability or directly from original manufacturers.

AVD Series

Combined steam sterilization and HPV biodecontamination.
The AVD Series combines steam sterilization and HPV biodecontamination in a single system, saving space and capital cost. It supports safe transfer of heat-sensitive equipment and components into aseptic areas with full GMP compliance.

SteelcoBelimed equipment for pharmaceutical applications is designed and manufactured in accordance with cGMP principles and within an ISO 9001–certified quality system. All systems are developed to meet applicable international pharmaceutical regulations (FDA, EU GMP), as well as relevant electrical, EMC and safety requirements.
