Novo Pro 18L LED Steam Sterilizer
The Novo Pro 18L LED is a compact Class B steam sterilizer designed for a small reprocessing area in a dental clinic or small medical practice.
Overview
What The Novo Pro 18L LED Is For
The Novo Pro 18L LED is a compact Class B steam sterilizer designed for a small reprocessing area in a dental clinic or small medical practice. A 18 L chamber fits up to five trays, handles wrapped and hollow loads, and completes sterilization in as little as 5 minutes with automatic cycle management. The LED interface requires only three clicks to start a cycle, and every step is monitored and recorded. It runs on single-phase 230 V and occupies 585 x 438 mm of bench space, making it suitable for tight back rooms.

Key Benefits
Why Clinics Choose The Novo Pro 18L LED
Class B sterilization with fractionated vacuum for wrapped and hollow instruments, not just unwrapped solids
11 fully automatic programs managed by a microprocessor, requiring no manual intervention during the cycle
Three-click start with LED interface simplifies operation for rotating staff with minimal training
Fast cycle times: 5 minutes for universal loads, 18 minutes for prion inactivation, 20 minutes for soft materials
Built-in water quality detection (optional) helps prevent scale buildup and extends machine life
Double safety door locking prevents operation if the door is open or not properly secured
Application Scenarios
- Sterilizing wrapped instruments and hollow handpieces in a single-chair dental clinic with limited space
- Processing small surgical packs and porous items that must remain sterile until use at the chairside
- Running a quick cycle for solid instruments between patients without waiting for a full load
- Inactivating prions in instruments used in high-risk procedures, with a dedicated 18-minute cycle
- Sterilizing thermo-unstable materials like plastic or rubber instruments with a low-temperature soft cycle
Who It Is For
- Single-chair or small dental clinics with limited reprocessing space and staff rotation
- Stomatology departments in small hospitals or outpatient clinics without a central sterile services unit
- Aesthetic and cosmetic clinics that sterilize reusable needles and small instrument sets
- Veterinary practices reprocessing small surgical packs in-house
- Dental equipment distributors seeking a Class B model with documented conformity for their product line
Problems It Solves
What Goes Wrong Without It
- Unwrapped-only sterilizers cannot process wrapped or hollow loads, limiting the range of instruments a practice can reuse
- Manual cycle management increases the risk of human error and incomplete sterilization
- Lack of automatic record keeping makes compliance audits difficult and time-consuming
- Tap water or poor feed water leads to scale buildup and shortens the life of the boiler
- Large sterilizers take up too much space in small reprocessing rooms, making them impractical

- Aluminium instrument trays
- Aluminium finned heat exchanger for the cooling window
How It Is Used In The Workflow
- Load preparation - instruments are cleaned in an ultrasonic cleaner and dried before wrapping
- Wrapping - pouches or reels are sealed on a thermal sealer with the cycle date visible
- Water supply - the clean water tank is filled with distilled water below 5 microsiemens per cm
- Cycle selection - the operator selects one of the 11 programs via the LED interface with three clicks
- Automatic cycle - the microprocessor manages vacuum, preheating, exposure, and drying phases
- Record - the cycle is stored automatically in the system for compliance and audit purposes
- Post-cycle - the door unlocks only when pressure reaches atmospheric level, ensuring safety
Quality Control
- Each cycle is monitored for vacuum, pressure, temperature, and time; the cycle aborts if any parameter fails
- The intelligent diagnosis system identifies the failing component and displays the fault code
- All units undergo a 1800-day aging test before shipment, simulating long-term use
- Programs include daily tests that can be run before the first load of the day
- Cycle data is retained in the system and can be retrieved after a failure for traceability

Comparison
How The Novo Pro 18L LED Compares
| Compared With | What Changes |
|---|---|
| Class N sterilizer | A Class N unit only handles unwrapped solid instruments; the Novo Pro 18L LED also processes wrapped and hollow loads, at a higher purchase price |
| Novo Pro 23L LED | The 23L chamber suits a multi-chair practice and holds more trays; the 18L is better for single-chair clinics with limited space |
| Novo Pro 18L Touchscreen | The touchscreen model offers more detailed interface and program access; the LED variant is simpler and faster for basic operations |
| Central sterile services | Sending instruments out removes the equipment cost but adds a transport cycle and a second set of instruments |
Use Guide
Running The Novo Pro 18L LED Day To Day
- Fill the clean water tank with distilled water below 5 microsiemens per cm and check the transparent level indicator
- Run the daily test programme before the first patient load
- Load trays so pouches lie flat with the paper side up and do not touch the chamber wall
- Select the program that matches the load: quick, universal, prion, soft, or other
- Use the soft cycle for thermo-unstable materials like plastic or rubber instruments
- Empty the waste water tank when prompted and never return waste water to the clean tank
- Keep the system powered on to maintain preheat and reduce cycle start time
FAQ
Novo Pro 18L LED Questions
What is the difference between Class B and Class N sterilization
Class B uses fractionated vacuum to remove air from wrapped and hollow loads, allowing steam to reach all surfaces. Class N handles only unwrapped solid instruments. The Novo Pro 18L LED runs Class B cycles conforming to EN 13060.
What water does the sterilizer need
Feed water must meet EN 13060 Annex C, which means conductivity below 5 microsiemens per centimetre. Distilled water from a Distilo water distiller meets this. Tap water scales the boiler and shortens the life of the machine.
How many instrument trays fit in one load
The carrier takes up to five trays, or three trays when rotated 90 degrees. The steel wire carrier measures 310 x 205 x 200 mm and the aluminium trays 285 x 193 x 16 mm.
How are cycle records kept for an inspection
Every cycle is stored automatically in the system. No manual logging is required. The data can be retrieved for audit purposes without additional steps.
What power supply does it need
200-240 Vac, 50/60 Hz single phase, nominally 230 Vac at 50 Hz, drawing 1700 W and protected by a 10 A fuse. Plan a dedicated circuit rather than sharing a socket with other equipment.
Can it be used at altitude
The unit is rated to 3500 m above sea level. Above that height it must not be used, because the pressure and temperature relationship the cycle depends on no longer holds.
Do you supply OEM or ODM versions for distributors
Yes. Joident supplies distributors and OEM or ODM partners, including a multi language operating system set for the destination market. Send your requirement on WhatsApp or by email and we will confirm what is feasible.
