HP-P17 Vertical Autoclave with Drying Function, Internal Circulation
Price, lead time and documents for your market are confirmed in the quotation.
Key takeaways
- HP-P17 is the second of three Drying Internal Circulation vertical autoclaves, HP-P16 to HP-P18.
- Autoclave drying time sets your turnaround for wrapped loads; ask for the HP-P17 drying settings before sizing your fleet.
- Quote HP-P17 alongside a Dry-version model to compare the two drying versions.
HP-P17 is the second model in the Drying Internal Circulation version of our vertical line, an autoclave with drying function for clinics, wards and labs. For wrapped loads, autoclave drying time often decides how many packs you can turn around per shift.
HP-P17 sits between HP-P16 and HP-P18. If you are deciding between drying versions, put HP-P17 and HP-P13 (Dry) on one quote and compare their drying method and times on the data sheets.

Frequently asked questions
+How long is the drying stage on HP-P17?
It depends on the load and the program. We send the HP-P17 drying method and time settings on its data sheet. Dense wrapped packs need more drying than unwrapped glassware, so add drying time to sterilization time when you calculate turnaround.
+Why are packs still wet after the drying stage?
Overloading, packs touching the chamber walls, non-absorbent wrapping, excess water or opening the lid before drying ends are common causes. Fix the loading first; if packs are still wet, extend the drying time within the manual's limits.
+What is the autoclave dry cycle temperature?
The drying stage is not a sterilization step, so it has no sterilizing temperature. The chamber stays hot after the steam phase and the dryer removes moisture. HP-P17 settings are on its data sheet.
+Internal-circulation drying or Dry version: which should I choose?
Both vertical versions include drying but carry different drying designations. Compare HP-P17 with HP-P13 on drying time, power and price for your loads; we can quote the two side by side.
