Description
3.5-Hour Sterilization
Achieves FDA-required 10-6 sterility assurance level for terminal sterilization of medical devices.
Easy Installation
Requires only a 120v or 230v outlet and a 1″ dedicated exhaust line.
Lock Mechanism
Door automatically locks at the start of the cycle and unlocks at the end.
Active Aeration in Same Chamber
Purge probe flushes the sterilization bag with a constant flow of fresh air at the end of the cycle – no need to transfer devices to a separate area. EO-absorbent devices may require additional aeration.
17.6g EO Cartridge
Terminal sterility with 90% less EO than any other system on the market. The cartridge protects the hermetically sealed glass EO ampoule from accidental activation.
Make your System Zero Emissions
Andersen abators are a simple, cartridge-based system that employs a dry catalyst resin that converts ethylene oxide to biodegradable organic compounds. Replaceable abator cartridge has a 20-cycle capacity. Spent cartridges are non-hazardous.
Free Operator Training
It’s like having a sterilization expert on staff! Free operator training for the life of your sterilizer and free 24/7 support.
Simplified Controls
The unit contains a two-button interface and digital display. Sterilization status and cabinet temperature are shown throughout the cycle.
Controlled Environment
Warm air circulates throughout the chamber walls to maintain a constant temperature – ensuring effective sterilization and aeration.
Process Challenge Device
Built into the purge probe handle to ensure the 10-6 biological indicator is consistently placed in the most difficult location for EO to reach in every cycle – providing data driven results, regardless of the operator.
Unmatched Sterilization Compatibility
Temperature-controlled cabinet sterilizes at low temperatures without external vacuum lines or steam generator. Protects your most delicate instruments, electronics, drills, fiber optics, handpieces and cameras. As well as those plastic, fabric, cellulose or rubber devices that you can’t sterilize with other methods. Most items except for food, drugs or liquids.
Shelf Life
The FDA has cleared EOGas 4 sterilization loads wrapped with Sterisheet® or Tyvek® Sterilization Pouches with Chevron Seal – both have a shelf life of at least three months.

Using the EOGas 4 Sterilizer
It’s so easy to operate our EOGas 4 sterilizer. This short (4 min) tutorial proves it! We walk you through the process, step-by-step, and review placement of all recommended accessories.
EOGas 4 Sterilization Process
Here is a quick run-down on how sterilization works in our EOGas 4.
The latest generation of heated gas sterilization units have been a game-changer because instead of a 24-hour cycle, now we have a few hours cycle and it’s just changed our whole environment.”
Dr. Joseph Hunstad
Board Certified Plastic Surgeon
H/K/B Cosmetic Surgery
Charlotte, NC
It’s super easy to use. Very effective. The one thing I really like about it is: The machines, they never fail. We don’t really have an issue with having to turn equipment over because we know that it’s going to be successful every time.
The machine that we have is so quick. We’re able to process a lot of our equipment that typically, in a normal sterilizer you wouldn’t be able to do because it would damage the equipment.”
Kristin Morrison
Registered Nurse
H/K/B Cosmetic Surgery
Charlotte, NC
Our EOGas 4 sterilizer is one of the best investments our clinic has made. The ability to sterilize a load in 3.5 hours has allowed our surgical productivity to increase dramatically.
Plastics that cannot be autoclaved can now be gassed, allowing continual savings to the hospital and to the client by keeping overhead lower. The gas unit is very easy to operate and requires minimal staff time freeing up technicians to complete other tasks.
Again, I cannot emphasize enough how much we use our sterilizer and what a positive impact it has on our hospital.”
Markee Kushel, DVM
Medical Director
Deer Creek Animal Hospital
Littleton, CO
The practice grew bigger and bigger, we had larger and larger gas bags to run every single day. And just from a sheer volume, we were running out of time to turn everything over in a safe amount of time.
So we looked into the new system that allowed a shorter cycle. We’re able to turn things over midday, rather than having to wait overnight.”
Amy Morgan
Veterinary Technician Manager
BluePearl of Richmond VA
We are a very busy surgical center and we use our sterilizers every day.
Technicians routinely sterilize anything we can: Bulb syringes, tubing, staplers, cautery, scopes, sutures, ET tubes, light handle covers, surgery packs, ligature tools, TPLO kits, etc. Veterinary Surgical Specialists has been using Andersen sterilizers for almost 20 years.”
Aimee Greenfield
Technician Manager
Veterinary Surgical Specialists
Tustin, CA
We love our EOGas 4 sterilizer! We like the fact we can do 3- or 5-hour cycles, rather than 12 or 24 hours with the old machine. It’s fantastic!”
