**MELAG Vacuclave 305 — Compact Class B Steam Autoclave, 5 L** The MELAG Vacuclave 305 is a benchtop steam autoclave for reusable, steam-compatible instruments. Its 5 L chamber and 30 cm-wide housing suit practices that regularly process small loads. It can serve as the primary sterilizer in a low-volume practice or as a second unit for processing small instrument batches between appointments. **Sterilization and automatic drying** MELAG lists a minimum cycle time of 6.5 minutes for an eligible program and load, with drying time added separately. The DRYtelligence system automatically adjusts the drying duration to the load. **Touchscreen controls and cycle documentation** The touchscreen lets the operator select a program and monitor its progress.
