3. FUNCTIONS AND CYCLES
The STATCLAVE G4 is a dynamic air removal (pre-vacuum) table-top steam sterilizer that uses steam to
sterilize wrapped and unwrapped instrument loads typically used in dental and medical offices. It has six
validated sterilization cycles with optimized drying for fast, effective instrument processing. An additional
custom cycle can be configured using one of three temperature settings but this cycle must be validated by
the user.
