1.5.7 Fill Times
1.5.8 Drain
1.5.9 Verification
In most installations, at least one Diagnostic Cycle and
two consecutive Liquid Chemical Sterilant Processing
Cycles should be run. If the Customer has already run
cycles, verification should include at least one
diagnostics and one liquid chemical sterilant
processing cycle.
• ADDITIONAL
PREFILTERS:
Indicate the type
(preferably in micron
rating) and location of any
additional prefilters
installed.
• TIME VS >
TEMPERATURE:
Measure and chart the
water temperature at a
sampling of intervals to
show at what rate the
temperature rises and
becomes stable. This
should be done without the
prefilter elements in place
in service mode to open the
dump (S5) solenoid valve.
Monitor water flow for at
least five minutes. This
should be done before
water has been permitted
to run through the system.
• AVAIL PRESS: Enter the static available
water pressure (in psi),
with no water flowing, at
the inlet to the SYSTEM 1E
Processor.
• INLET PRESS: Enter the water pressure (in
psi), while filling, at the
inlet to the SYSTEM 1E
Processor.
• ENTER THE
FILL TIME (IN
SECONDS),
AND THE
NUMBER OF
FILLS
NOTE: After a
completed cycle,
first fill time will
always be slower
due to the filter
integrity test.
By measuring the rinse fill
times, and interpreting the
FP readings, an indication of
water pressure, supply line
capacity, and (at least on a
short term basis) water
quality is obtained.
• DISTANCE TO
STANDING
WATER:
Record, in inches, the
distance from end of drain
hose (or drain fitting) to
standing water.
• DEDICATED/
SHARED:
Circle the appropriate choice.
If drain is shared, describe
how.
• COMMENTS: Note any unusual conditions,
potential problems, or
additional information.
• TRAYS TESTED: Indicate trays tested.
• DIAGNOSTICS
CYC:
Indicate cycle count, start
time, readings of stored
variables and who ran the
cycle. Enter F for
DIAGNOSTICS run by the
field service representative,
or C for DIAGNOSTICS
run by the Customer.
• FZ VALUE: Enter the value of the
variable FZ.
• FP VALUE: Enter the value of the
variable FP.
• CP VALUE: Enter the value of the
variable CP.
• CZ VALUE: Enter the value of the
variable CZ.
• PS VALUE: Enter the value of the
variable PS.
• LIQUID
CHEMICAL
STERILANT
PROCESSING
CYCLE
Enter the cycle count for the
liquid chemical sterilant
processing cycle being
recorded.
• TEMP Enter the temperature
range from the printout.
• CONC Enter the concentration
reading from the printout.
