Price, lead time and documents for your market are confirmed in the quotation.
Key takeaways
- Model 2 of 3 in the HP-N41–N43 group: HP-N42 is a horizontal autoclave machine for CSSD and large labs.
- Shares the HP-N41–N43 body design: an enclosed cabinet, hand-wheel door and twin gauges.
- Quote-based supply: send quantity, voltage and destination; the data sheet and market documents come with the quotation.
HOPE INTERNATIONAL lists HP-N42 as model 2 of 3 in the HP-N41–N43 horizontal group: a horizontal autoclave machine of the pressure steam type. Where HP-N36–N40 and HP-N44–N46 leave the chamber on an open frame, N41–N43 is a closed cabinet with a digital panel near the base. Per-model data sheets let you compare HP-N42 with HP-N41 and HP-N43.
Key Features
- High-capacity layout – built for central sterile supply and high-volume loads.
- As shown in the photo – an enclosed cabinet whose front carries a round hand-wheel door, two gauges above it and a digital control panel below.
- Three models, one design – HP-N42 sits between HP-N41 and HP-N43; compare neighboring data sheets.
- Verifiable cycles – checked with chemical indicators in each pack and routine biological tests.
Applications
Hospitals choose a horizontal unit like HP-N42 when trays, linen and drums outgrow vertical sterilizers, or when a new CSSD is being equipped. Hospitals that prefer an enclosed hospital autoclave machine over an open frame can compare HP-N42 within the N41–N43 group.
How to specify when requesting a quote
- Model – quote HP-N42; add HP-N41 and HP-N43 if you are still choosing a size.
- Chamber size – ask for the usable diameter and depth of HP-N42 and check your largest tray or drum fits.
- Power supply – state your mains voltage, frequency and plug type; we confirm the supply HP-N42 is built for.
- Load types – unwrapped, wrapped, hollow, textile or liquid loads; we confirm the air-removal method of HP-N42.
- Quantity – units of HP-N42 and any HP-N models to ship together.

Frequently asked questions
+What are the main parts of a horizontal autoclave?
Expect a pressure chamber, sealed door and locking mechanism, gauges, safety valve, steam supply, drain and exhaust lines, temperature sensing and controls. Ask for the spare-parts list of HP-N42 so you can stock gaskets and wear items.
+What is a horizontal autoclave?
It is a front-loading autoclave with a horizontal cylindrical or rectangular chamber, used where large trays, packs and drums are sterilized in volume. HP-N42 belongs to the HP-N41–N43 group of horizontal pressure steam sterilizers.
+How does a steam autoclave work?
It combines heat, moisture and pressure: pressurized saturated steam reaches temperatures well above 100 °C and penetrates loads once air is removed. After the hold, steam is exhausted and the load dries and cools. HP-N42 is a pressure steam sterilizer of this kind.
+How does HP-N42 compare with the other HP-N41–N43 models?
HP-N42 is the second of three models built on the same horizontal body. Its published name does not state a volume, so we confirm chamber size, heating power, weight and packed dimensions for HP-N42 – and for HP-N41 and HP-N43 if you want to compare – in the quotation.
