HP-N37 is a horizontal autoclave – a pressure steam sterilizer in the front-loading, floor-standing format built for central sterile supply and large loads – and model 2 of 5 in the HP-N36–N40 horizontal group. Of the three horizontal designs, N36–N40 is pictured with a white cylindrical chamber on an open steel frame and a second vessel below it.
Key Features
- Front-loading horizontal chamber – racks and large trays slide in at a fixed height.
- Pictured design – the product photo shows a white cylindrical chamber on an open steel frame, a door closed by a radial hand wheel, twin pressure gauges above the door and a second vessel with a control box mounted below.
- Five-model group – HP-N37 is listed between HP-N36 and HP-N38; ratings are confirmed per model.
- Saturated steam under pressure – the standard method for heat- and moisture-tolerant instruments, dressings and glassware.
Applications
Horizontal autoclaves are installed in hospital central sterile supply departments (CSSD), theatre sterile services and large laboratories. HP-N37 is intended for instrument trays, linen and textile packs, dressing drums and bulky glassware. As a horizontal cylindrical autoclave, HP-N37 serves as a hospital autoclave or CSSD autoclave for large loads.

Frequently asked questions
+What is a horizontal autoclave like HP-N37 used for?
Horizontal autoclaves process large instrument trays, surgical linen and textile packs, dressing drums, bulky glassware and lab media in fewer, bigger loads. Hospitals place them in CSSD or theatre sterile services. Ask us which programs HP-N37 offers for your load mix.
+What is the difference between a vertical and a horizontal autoclave?
Vertical autoclaves load from the top and suit wards, clinics and labs with moderate volumes; horizontal autoclaves load from the front, hold more and are built for central sterile supply departments that run large trays and textile packs. HP-N37 is a horizontal model; for the other format, see the HP-N07–N23 vertical group.
+How do you operate a horizontal autoclave?
Check water or steam supply and power, load trays on the rack without blocking steam flow, close the door and tighten the hand wheel fully, set temperature and time, start, and after the hold vent and cool until the gauges read zero before opening. Trained staff should follow the HP-N37 manual and local pressure-vessel rules.
+How does HP-N37 compare with the other HP-N36–N40 models?
All five models in the HP-N36–N40 group share the pictured design; HP-N37 is listed between HP-N36 and HP-N38. Models in one design group usually differ in chamber size and power, so we send the data sheets for HP-N37 and its neighbors with the quotation for a side-by-side check.
