Enbio autoclaves are compact, fully automatic Class B vacuum steam sterilizers designed in Switzerland by Enbio Group AG. They are built for clinics that need fast instrument turnaround without giving up counter space. Both models complete a wrapped 134°C cycle with drying in 15 minutes and offer a FAST cycle for unwrapped instruments in 7 or 9 minutes, so instruments can be reprocessed between patients rather than waiting through longer conventional cycles.

A vacuum process removes air from the chamber so steam can penetrate wrapped loads and complex instruments, and every cycle is automatically recorded to USB for sterilization record-keeping. Enbio autoclaves run on standard 110-120 V / 60 Hz power, plug into a standard electrical outlet, and need no plumbing or drain connection. They are suited to medical clinics, dental practices, surgical offices and procedure rooms.

Choosing an Enbio Autoclave

• Enbio S: The smaller, faster model, with a 2.7 L chamber that holds up to 8 pouches. It has a 7 minute FAST cycle for unwrapped instruments and is 25 cm wide. It suits practices that reprocess smaller loads frequently throughout the day.
• Enbio Pro: The higher-capacity model, with a 5.3 L chamber that holds up to 16 pouches, 16 handpieces or 16 diagnostic sets. Its taller load space fits surgical and implant cassettes, and it has a 9 minute FAST cycle for unwrapped instruments. It suits practices with larger instrument volumes or cassette-based workflows.

Important: External Water Supply

Unlike most tabletop autoclaves, Enbio autoclaves do not have a built-in water tank. They draw distilled or demineralized water with a conductivity below 15 µS/cm from an external container. Before ordering, confirm there is space next to the unit for the external water supply and that your facility can maintain a supply of water meeting this specification.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are Enbio autoclaves manual or automatic?
Enbio autoclaves are fully automatic. The user selects a program on the touchscreen and starts the cycle, and the unit completes vacuum air removal, sterilization, drying and data recording on its own.

What class of autoclave is Enbio?
Both the Enbio S and Enbio Pro are Class B vacuum steam autoclaves, which are designed for wrapped loads and instruments with hollows or complex shapes.

How fast are Enbio autoclaves?
Both models complete a wrapped 134°C cycle with drying in 15 minutes and a wrapped 121°C cycle in 45 minutes. The FAST cycle for unwrapped instruments takes 7 minutes on the Enbio S and 9 minutes on the Enbio Pro.

Do Enbio autoclaves need plumbing?
No. Enbio autoclaves use an external water container, so no fixed water connection or drain is required. They plug into a standard 110-120 V electrical outlet.

What is the difference between the Enbio S and the Enbio Pro?
The Enbio Pro has about twice the chamber volume of the Enbio S, holding up to 16 pouches compared with 8, and it fits surgical and implant cassettes. The Enbio S is smaller and has a faster FAST cycle for unwrapped instruments, at 7 minutes compared with 9 minutes.
