GENERAL DATA
Caracteristics and operation
Manometer
It’s used for temperature and pressure control,
and its graduation range from 0 kgf/cm² to 4.0 kgf/
cm² and from 100ºC to 152 ºC.
Manometer’s tolerance variation
Divide the manometer’s scale by three equal
parts. For the first part, the tolerance is 3%, for the
second part is 2%, and for the third is 3%.
Sealing ring
Besides sealing the door, it also works as
a safety device, relieving chamber’s internal
pressure in casa of overpressure.
If the sealing ring were moved from its place,
call a Gnatus authorized technician to carry out
the maintenance of the equipment.
Safety seal and anti-vacuum valve
Placed in the internal part of the door, they
diminish the pressure in the chamber, in case it
exceeds. The anti-vacuum valve has the same
function, and it also reduces the pressure of the
chamber if it were negative (vacuum).
NOTE:
If during the sterilization procedure the valves
were opened, the operator can reset them.
However, the appropriate cooling time must be
observed in order to prevent accidents.
If the valves were opened repeatedly, call a
Gnatus authorized technician.
NOTE: Execute the replacement of the safety
seal and anti-vacuum valve within the period
“of 36 months”. If it is necessary to do it before
the period indicated, request the presence of
an authorized Gnatus technician.
