Overview
High-pressure steam autoclaves use electric heating to generate pressurized steam for sterilization. Components include a sealable chamber, pressure gauge, exhaust valve, safety valve, and heating element. Proper maintenance ensures reliable operation and extends equipment service life.
Pre-Operation
When using after a long period of inactivity, pre-wash the system four times before use. Install per the user manual with correct pipeline connections to prevent leakage. Verify connections are secure and water tank is filled.
During Operation
Confirm correct settings before starting. Drain waste promptly. Clean surfaces with neutral cleaner. Keep rails dry. Use reset button to stop, never force manually.
Safety Rules
Ensure proper grounding. Place in ventilated dry area. Never remove safety valve seals. Do not exceed 80 percent capacity. Avoid seal ring oil contact. Leave gaps between items. Wait for gauge reading zero before opening. Calibrate regularly. Check safety valve and seal ring.
Program Settings
Liquid program at 121 degrees Celsius for 30 minutes at 120-140 KPA. Standard program at 134 degrees Celsius for 8 minutes at 220-240 KPA. Allow automatic cooling after cycle. When pressure returns to zero and alarm sounds, open door to retrieve items.
Operating Notes
To stop mid-cycle, long-press the stop button. The system will auto-release pressure and alarm when pressure reaches zero. Ensure packaging materials are properly secured and do not contact the chamber inner wall. Liquid items must only use the liquid program, not the standard program.
Routine Care
Check circuits and water level. Open door, load items, close securely. Replace water weekly. If not used daily, run standard cycle to clear chamber, drain tank, and add purified water before next use. Wipe equipment after use. Clean water filter with brush.
