Comprehensive Functionality

The TLV-MP Series integrates preparation, sterilization, rapid cooling, and dispensing of high-quality culture media in a single system. By ensuring excellent batch-to-batch reproducibility, it reduces contamination risks while addressing gelation and solubility challenges. Moreover, it records every operation for complete traceability, strengthening laboratory performance.

Modern design and hassle-free cleaning with multiple automated functions

Push-button-controlled mechanically assisted door. Automatic filling from the water network. Water-cooled direct discharge. Dispensing lines can be cleaned and disinfected before, during, and after the dispensing phase with steam that reach the entire length of the line to prevent contamination. Pause the dispensing phase to avoid gelation issues. The inner bucket features ergonomic handles and can be easily removed.

Versatile Options

Scientists can choose from four media preparator sizes and four dispensing modes to fit their laboratory requirements. Each model offers optional heating capacity upgrades, which drastically shorten heating phases and improve overall efficiency.

 

Modern Design Features

Raypa designed the TLV-MP for easy cleaning and operation. The push-button door streamlines handling, while automatic water filling and water-cooled direct discharge improve workflow efficiency. Steam-cleanable dispensing lines prevent contamination, and ergonomic inner bucket handles simplify removal.

 

Safe and Efficient Operation

The TLV-MP prioritizes safety with a mechanically assisted door and casters equipped with brakes. Laboratories benefit from up to a 90% reduction in cooling time, while adjustable dispensing speeds between 7 and 100 mL/s provide flexibility for various applications.

Accessories

Dual Functionality and Exceptional Build Quality

Operating as both a media preparator and an autoclave, the TLV-MP saves space and costs. Users can adjust programs by time, temperature, or F0, supported by flexible probe controls. Built with durable AISI-316L stainless steel in the chamber and inner vessel, it guarantees reliability and longevity.
