Unveiling the RDS Series Autoclaves

Rob Dyer Surgical
RDS160

Sterilisation is the backbone of any theatre, CSSD or laboratory, and the RDS Series is Rob Dyer Surgical’s flagship answer: hospital-grade steam sterilisers from South Africa’s sterilisation specialists since 1990, available in single-door and pass-through (double-door) configurations to match your workflow.

Two configurations, one standard

The single-door model is perfect for settings where floor space is a concern, delivering the full RDS feature set in a compact footprint.

The pass-through (double-door) model adds a physical barrier between the used and sterile sides of a department: materials enter from one side and exit sterilised from the other. That added layer of safety and efficiency makes it the natural choice for high-traffic hospitals and research labs, where preventing cross-contamination matters.

Advanced features

  • High-efficiency sterilisation: both models are equipped with a high-efficiency vacuum system that guarantees thorough sterilisation. The ultimate vacuum reaches above -90 kPa, so loads dry thoroughly and contamination risk drops.
  • User-friendly operation: an advanced control system with an easy-to-read LCD screen displays temperature, pressure and cycle status at a glance, making the process straightforward to monitor and control.
  • Multiple safety features: over-temperature automatic protection, a door safety interlock, double over-pressure protection and electronic circuit safety devices ensure safe, reliable operation.
  • Versatile applications: suitable for medical instruments, laboratory vessels, culture media and items that may come into contact with blood or body fluids.

Quality assurance: LDX2101 stainless steel

Quality is at the heart of the RDS Series. The chamber and jacket are constructed from LDX2101 stainless steel, a duplex grade selected for its strength and corrosion resistance in demanding, high-cycle sterilisation environments, and the pressure vessel is backed by a guarantee of up to 10 years.
