Your gateway to easy: The AN75 walks you through each step. Haven’t run a cycle in a while? No problem. The machine tells you exactly what to do, reducing the risk of user error and boosting staff confidence.

Once you select your cycle and aeration time, the AN75 will also tell you precisely when the cycle will finish. No math (or guesswork) with the clock and countdown timer. Ahh, the AN75 makes planning your day that much easier.

EO Cartridge

Longtime users of other Anprolene systems say they LOVE the new AN75 EO cartridges.

Each robust polyurethane cartridge protects a hermetically sealed glass EO ampoule. The addition of the trigger guard and safety seal provides a double layer of protection against accidental activation. When you’re ready to activate, remove the seal and guard and simply press the button!

The interlocking bag is attached to a sealed exhaust tube with a quick connect fitting to the sterilizer. Simply place the activated cartridge in the bag, close the high-quality zipper seal on top, and bag contents will safely exhaust into the machine.

FDA-Cleared

The AN75 is the only FDA-cleared, room-temperature sterilizer on the market. Why should you care?

Put simply, a clearance shows the government agency agrees with Andersen scientists – our sterilizers are safe and effective. Even though you do not work in a setting that demands an FDA-clearance, many of our veterinary customers like knowing our products have undergone rigorous testing that, then, passed a great deal of scrutiny.

PLUS!, you get hospital-grade terminal sterility (10-6 SAL) at a very reasonable price point.
