3. Installation and preparation for operation
Please read these operating instructions carefully before using the ENBIO S or ENBIO PRO.
During operation, observe the guidelines in these instructions as well as the applicable local
health and safety rules. The ENBIO S and ENBIO PRO units are designed for self-assembly by
the user and do not require specialized installation on site. The user is responsible for proper
installation of the unit on site in accordance with these instructions.
3.1. HEPA filter installation.
To protect the component during transport, a HEPA filter is not installed in the device. It was
placed inside the chamber, on a tray. Take it out of the chamber, take it out of the bag and by
yourself, carefully screw it into the slot provided for this purpose (see fig.). The filter should be
screwed in by hand (approx. 7 turns) until resistance is felt - further screwing in will damage
the filter and immobilize the sterilizer.
3.2. Feed water quality
It is unacceptable to use any liquids, solutions, chemicals, additives to the feed water - the device may be
powered only with demineralized or distilled water of appropriate quality.
No chemicals or additives must be added to the sterilization water, even if they are specifically intended
for use in steam generators, steam production or for use as additives in sterilization, disinfection, cleaning
or corrosion protection.
The use of incorrect quality water or solutions other than water reduces the effectiveness of sterilization
and leads to damage to the device and loss of warranty.
The total mineral content of the sterilization water must be less than 10 ppm or, in the case of conductivity
measurement, it must be less than 15 μS/cm - therefore tap water cannot be used as feed water for the
device.
The table below shows recommended water hardness and conductivity parameters for Enbio S and Enbio
PRO sterilizers.
Permissible parameters of water used for sterilization
• hardness <0.02 mmol / l
• conductivity (at 20 ° C) <15 μS / cm
• pH - from 5 to 7.5
• chemical additives - none
The use of water with an impurity content in excess of the above levels will damage the
device and will void the warranty.
The water in the supply tank should be replaced at least every three months (due to
increased conductivity due to prolonged contact with air). If the tank is dirty, also change it
to a new one. The tank should be closed with the attached stopper so that water does not
deteriorate its chemical composition as a result of contact with air.
The guarantee granted by the manufacturer becomes void if the autoclave has been used
with water of a quality inconsistent with the recommended
If the autoclave is operated in a water recycling system using the Enbio Magic Filter,
the filter must be replaced with a new one every 6 months or less when the resin has
completely discolored to an amber color. As long as the blue color is visible, the resin has
still water-purifying properties, i.e. water hardness <0.02 mmol / l and conductivity <15
μS / cm. In order to ensure the correct parameters of the water supplying the device, it is
recommended to check the water tank at least quarterly. In the event of contamination, the
tank should be emptied, cleaned and filled with new demineralized water. Failure to comply
with these obligations may disrupt the sterilization process and will void the warranty on
the sterilizer.
