FORCED INTERRUPTION
The “STOP” icon allows the user to interrupt equipment function during sterilization or test
cycles.
The autoclave will behave differently depending on the status in which it is found at the
time of interruption.
During the initial vacuum phase
As no steam has yet been entered into the chamber, the autoclave will reset the
atmospheric pressure and refill air at forced interruption and resetting will take place
quickly.
During later phases (fractioned vacuums– increased pressure/temperature –
sterilization)
The autoclave has entered steam (in pressure and temperature) in the chamber and must
be brought to safe conditions.
Pressure present is discharged, drying takes place and then resetting of the atmospheric
pressure. These operations will last for a few minutes.
The same situations will be undergone in the event of a BLACK-OUT during the
aforementioned phases.
Sterilization cycles interrupted by means of the "STOP" icon or due to a black-out
are not to be considered valid. material in the chamber is not sterile.
