Sturdy SA-232X Poleax Series Autoclave Device Analysis Report

Device Identification

The device shown in the visuals is an autoclave (steam sterilizer) device used in medical and laboratory environments, performing sterilization with high-pressure steam. Designed as a tabletop model, this device is used for sterilizing surgical instruments and medical materials from microbes and bacteria.

Brand and Model

As a result of detailed visual analyses, the brand and model of the device have been definitively identified. The brand logo, model code, and series name on the device’s front panel are clearly legible.

• Brand: STURDY
• Model: SA-232X
• Series: Poleax series

Originality

The “STURDY” logo, model designation (SA-232X), “Poleax series” inscription, and “CE 0434” certification label on the product indicate that the device is an original production. The control panel layout, analog pressure gauge, and placement of warning labels are consistent with the manufacturer’s standard design language.

Areas of Use

This device is designed for the sterilization of heat-resistant medical instruments, glass materials, and metal surgical equipment. It is suitable for use in areas where hygiene is critical, such as dental clinics, veterinary clinics, medical laboratories, hospitals, polyclinics, and tattoo studios. The device in the visual is the main unit; materials are sterilized via trays (not visible in the visuals) placed inside.

General Condition and Status

The device is generally in used (second-hand) condition. While its casing and main components appear sturdy, there are cosmetic marks on the outer surfaces due to use. The device’s integrity is preserved, and its cover and control mechanisms are in place.

Physical Deformation Examination

Upon examination of the visuals, the following details regarding the cosmetic condition of the device have been identified:

• Side Panel: There is a distinct, curved scratch on the right side panel of the device (when viewed from the back). Additionally, there are scattered scuff marks on the panel.
• Top Surface: Slight dirt, faint stains, and signs of use are visible on the top metal surface.
• Front Panel: The control panel and cover part are clean, but there may be slight age-related discoloration (yellowing) on the plastic parts.
• Rusting/Corrosion: No significant signs of rust or metal corrosion have been detected on the visible outer surfaces.

Mechanical and Electronic Components

Mechanical and electronic condition information obtained from the visuals is as follows:

• Door Mechanism: The front cover of the device has an octagonal locking handle with a honeycomb logo on it, and it appears sturdy.
• Control Panel: The front panel features a pressure gauge (manometer), LED status lights (Power, Heat, Ster., Complete), Start/Select buttons, and a Power switch, all of which are intact.
• Valve and Control Knob: The “Filling/Draining” control knob (Filling, Water, Valve, Close) located at the bottom is in place.
• Water Level Indicator: A transparent hose and metal clamps indicating the water level are present on the left side panel (when viewed from the front).

Technical Indicators and Label Information

The device features detailed tables and warnings containing operational information:

• Temperature and Time Table:
  • At 1.2kg/cm² (121°C) pressure: Wrapped 30 min, Unwrapped 15 min.
  • At 2.1kg/cm² (134°C) pressure: Wrapped 15 min, Unwrapped 4 min.
• Manometer: The analog pressure gauge displays pressure (kg/cm²) and vacuum values.
• Safety Warnings: A “WARNING” label on the front door (warning not to open the door until pressure drops to zero) and a yellow triangle “Hot Surface” (SSS) warning symbol on the rear mechanism part are present.
• CE Mark: The “CE 0434” code indicates the device’s compliance with European standards.

Battery and Power

This device operates with mains electricity (AC Power). It does not have an internal or external battery. Although the power cable is not visible connected to the device in the visuals, the cable outlet points at the rear are visible.

Quantity Information

The visuals subject to this report show 1 unit of a Sturdy brand autoclave device. Sterilization trays or shelf accessories are not included in the visual.

Potential Failure Risk

The scratches visible on the outer casing of the device, particularly on the side panel, and surface stains are merely cosmetic flaws and do not impede operation. There is no visible breakage or missing parts in the mechanical lid locking system or the buttons on the front panel. However, the transparency of the device’s water level hose and its gasket parts are susceptible to aging over time. No critical damage risk requiring urgent intervention (such as broken or cracked casing) has been observed during the visual inspection.
