What to look for in a
sterilizer
The Lisa can be connected to computer
via Ethernet, or the data downloaded at
any time on an 8GB USB device. Or with
the convenient free Lisa Mobile App, the
operator can monitor up to four sterilizers
wirelessly on a Smartphone or tablet in
real time from any place in the practice.
The Lisa Mobile App is able to retrieve
cycle reports from the barcode printed by
the optional LisaSafe label printer. The
barcode can be read with a Smartphone
camera.
The printed label’s bar code
information can be scanned directly
into a patient file linking a sterilization
cycle with a single patient, clinician and
procedure – i.e. batch control identification
– providing a permanent record for medico
legal purposes.
AIR DETECTOR
To be effective, a steam vacuum sterilizer
must remove all air from within the load
(pre-vacuum phase) before the sterilizing
phase commences. The Lisa VA is the
only bench-top sterilizer with a built-in
air detector that confirms instruments
are exposed to saturated steam without
the presence of air pockets in every cycle,
thereby negating the option to use a batch
load PCD (process challenge device).

accessories are available from A-dec

quick 13-minute cycle for small loads of
unwrapped instruments. Reducing cycle
time eliminates unnecessary exposure to
heat, which extends the life of instruments
and reduces energy consumption.
Easy to use
Thanks to its new colour touch screen
and intuitive menu structure, the LISA
VA-series is extremely simple to use.
The display can be easily customised to
commence a fully automatic B Cycle at
the single touch of a button, ensuring all
load types (solid, hollow, porous, wrapped
or unwrapped) are properly sterilized.
This is important, because selecting the
B Cycle ensures adequate air removal and
steam penetration for porous and hollow
wrapped loads.
SECURE
In keeping with Australian Standards,
AS 4815 & AS 4187 for traceability
requirements, Lisa offers the option of
password-protected user identification
at load release and automatic capture of
cycle data.
It is essential to have sound instrument
handling procedures and a proven and
traceable sterilization protocol - especially
in busy practices – to ensure staff and
patients are protected from potential
infections from dental instruments.
Recognising this, the new W&H
Lisa VA sets a new benchmark in fast,
simple and secure sterilization – ensuring
infection control standards are more
consistently maintained in the dental
practice.
FAST
The Lisa VA employs advanced patented
EcoDry technology that adapts the drying
time to the mass of the load – the smaller
the load, the less drying time needed
– without compromising necessary
cycle parameters for time, steam and
temperature!
The Eco Dry process enables the Lisa
VA to process and completely dry a typical
2kg B-type mixed load in just 30 minutes.
Lisa also offers the option of an extremely
