,
ALWAYS CHECK THAT THE QUALITY AND CHARACTERISTICS
DECLARED BY THE PRODUCER ARE COMPATIBLE WITH THOSE SHOWN IN THE TABLE
.
WARNING
THE USE OF WATER FOR GENERATING STEAM CONTAINING CONTAMINANTS IN
LEVELS EXCEEDING THOSE SHOWN IN THE TABLE WILL SIGNIFICANTLY SHORTEN
THE STERILIZER'S LIFE.
IN ADDITION, THIS MAY INCREASE THE OXIDATION OF MORE SENSITIVE MATERIALS
AND INCREASE LIME RESIDUES ON THE GENERATOR, BOILER, INTERNAL SUPPORTS
AND INSTRUMENTS.
