STEIN AUTOCLAVES
IN USE WORLDWIDE

STEIN autoclaves are characterised by high quality, solid workmanship and well thought-out designs. Whether considered in terms of production, cleaning or energy consumption, they impress by virtue of their economy. Completely made of high grade, stainless steel and fully insulated, our autoclaves, like all STEIN products, represent purchases that pay off.

STEIN autoclaves are available in two sizes, i.e. 120 and 240 litres, both of which have the following features in common: self-supporting construction, made of solid stainless steel; pressure containers hermetically sealed by means of four screw-type locks; smooth surfaces; microprocessor controlled, indirect heating ensuring low energy consumption. The following operations can be carried out with STEIN autoclaves:

  • Cooking, as in a boiler
  • Sterilisation of cans
  • Cooking under pressure or vacuum
  • Simmering under pressure
  • Vacuum steaming
  • Vacuum pickling
  • Maturing of uncooked sausages
  • Steaming
  • Roasting and deep frying


  • Every process is guaranteed to give perfect results with consistent quality. Both autoclave models are supplied with indirect electric heating, an essential requirement if they are used for roasting and deep frying. It is also recommended for melting fat, since this does not adhere and the dripping thus produced is white. F-value monitoring guarantees correct compliance with the preservation phases. STEIN also supplies combinations of boilers and autoclaves in a variety of sizes and with different types of heating, e.g. 120 l electric autoclave and 300 l gas boiler. The 240 l autoclave can also be supplied with oil or gas heating. We will be more than willing to discuss the various options with you on site and to give advice on appropriate forms of heating.
