Ovens, also known as drying pans, are devices used to dry and sterilize glass and metal vessels used in various laboratory processes. Laboratory stoves enable sterilization by dry heat, where hot air is used to carry out this process, this equipment allows uniform distribution of heat inside, where the material is exposed to temperatures of around 170ºC for 2 hours.

Dry heat sterilization works by destroying micro-organisms through oxidation of their cellular components. It is a less efficient process than moist heat sterilization, as microorganisms die more rapidly when in the presence of water, as it allows their protein configuration to be changed more easily, and provides a means of distributing heat evenly throughout the internal chamber of the sterilization equipment.

Intelligent temperature control by microcomputer, digital display; centrifugal wind wheel, even heat flow; large study space, fast heat-up time; (can be fitted with explosion-proof locks, explosion-proof doors). Used for product dehydration and drying, suitable for industrial companies, mining, batch production in workshops, it can be an uninterrupted operation over a long period.

For dehydration, drying, producing industries such as electroplating, electronics, alloy jewelry drip, food, plastics, leather, hardware and other applications, but not for strong volatiles. Flammable and explosive items to avoid explosions.

Ovens are used to dry and sterilize glass and metal containers. The temperature inside the oven is higher than that of the surrounding environment. Depending on their mode of operation, there are two main types of oven: those that operate by natural convection and those that operate by forced convection.

A Laboratory Oven can be used for sterilization, which takes place inside the oven and is known as dry heat sterilization, which is carried out only at 180°C for 2 hours. During this process, the glass or metal is heated by air to a high temperature, eliminating any possibility of biological activity.
