Why Choose the Tuttnauer 2340M?

The Tuttnauer 2340M occupies an attractive middle position in Tuttnauer's manual tabletop autoclave lineup.

It provides considerably more chamber capacity than the compact 1730 Valueklave without requiring facilities to move up to the larger 2540M.

That makes the 2340M a strong option for healthcare facilities that want:

• More capacity than the Tuttnauer 1730
• A traditional manual autoclave
• A 19-liter chamber for routine instrument processing
• Straightforward controls
• Three instrument trays
• Optional full- and half-size cassette capacity
• A tabletop sterilizer with a relatively compact footprint

Tuttnauer 1730 vs. 2340M vs. 2540M

If you are comparing Tuttnauer manual autoclaves, chamber size and instrument capacity are among the most important differences.

Choose the Tuttnauer 1730 if:

Your facility processes smaller instrument loads and compact size is a priority.

Choose the Tuttnauer 2340M if:

You need significantly more chamber capacity than the 1730 but don't require the larger 23-liter chamber and four-tray capacity of the 2540M.

Choose the Tuttnauer 2540M if:

Your facility routinely processes larger instrument loads and can benefit from the 2540M's larger-diameter chamber, 23-liter capacity and four trays.

Tuttnauer 2340M vs. 2540M

The 2340M and 2540M are both manual Tuttnauer tabletop autoclaves, but the 2540M provides additional chamber and tray capacity.

The 2340M has a 19-liter chamber measuring 9 inches in diameter x 18.5 inches deep with three trays.

The 2540M increases capacity to 23 liters with a 10-inch diameter x 18.7-inch deep chamber and four trays.

For facilities that don't need the additional capacity, the 2340M can provide a practical balance of chamber size, countertop footprint and manual operation.

For facilities processing larger loads, the additional chamber diameter and fourth tray of the 2540M may justify moving up to the larger model.

Tuttnauer 2340M Standard Unwrapped Cycle

Tuttnauer specifies an approximate 13-minute standard unwrapped cycle from a hot start and approximately 27 minutes from a cold start.

Actual cycle times can vary depending on the instrument load and operating conditions.

Facilities should always follow Tuttnauer's operating instructions and applicable sterilization protocols when selecting and running sterilization cycles.

Water Requirements for the Tuttnauer 2340M

Tuttnauer specifies distilled water for the reservoir of the 2340M.

For initial installation, Tuttnauer instructs users to place the sterilizer on a sturdy, level counter, add the specified amount of water through the front of the chamber and fill the reservoir with distilled water.

Facilities that regularly operate tabletop sterilizers may also consider producing distilled water on-site with a compatible water distiller.
