Maximize laboratory productivity with Consolidated’s cloud-enabled steam autoclaves. Thanks to a unique partnership with TetraScience, an Internet-of-Things company, Consolidated autoclaves are now able to connect to the internet—allowing scientists, lab managers, and facilities personnel to monitor their autoclaves and download their sterilization data from any internet-ready device. This feature is now available as an option on all Consolidated models — simply connect the autoclave via Ethernet or Wi-Fi to enjoy the benefits (cloud-based data storage, real time monitoring, and cycle alerts & reminders). In addition to this cloud system, Consolidated autoclaves can be configured with SteriNET® Connex to include remote troubleshooting with live factory support; ideal for facilities that cannot afford any down-time or that are located in remote areas where service assistance is hours or days away. Already have cloud? Login or Activate here If you have questions about the cloud, please visit our FAQ page or watch the Cloud Demo video below. *This cloud feature may also be retrofit on existing Consolidated autoclaves with Advantage-Series controls. Cloud Upgrade Available for Existing Autoclaves Enhance your existing autoclave to harness the Cloud using our Cloud Upgrade Kit. This kit enables a Consolidated sterilizer with an existing Advantage-Series (ADV-PB, ADV-PLUS or ADV-PRO) controller to be upgraded and have all the cloud capabilities as newer-model sterilizers. Cloud is also now available as an option for Controller Upgrades. If your autoclave is not configured with the above-mentioned control systems, then you may purchase a Controller Upgrade Kit from Consolidated with the cloud option built in.
