Section 2: Installation Instructions
Planning the EO Abator Installation
Plan for the installation before the equipment is purchased. Consider such things as location, machine service
requirements, and code compliance. Obtain all state and local regulations affecting the use of Ethylene Oxide (EO).
If possible, review the proposed installation with the department manager, facilities engineer, architect, 3M sales or
service representative.
Ensure that anyone who will be involved with the EO Abator system installation receives a copy of this Operation and
Installation Manual. Contact your local 3M Health Care representative or 3M Health Care Field Service at
(800) 688-5888 for additional copies, or if you have any questions about installing the EO Abator system.
Service Installation Review and Checkout
Contact your local 3M service representative by phone when the EO Abator system is installed (i.e. all electrical and
mechanical services are connected and functioning).
Do not operate the EO Abator system without having a 3M service representative check the installation.
Complete the customer checklist. Call your service representative to review the installation. Discuss any necessary
changes before the checkout visit to assure that the sterilizer and EO Abator system are installed and will operate
according to 3M specifications.
Optional Configurations
The EO Abator can be used with 5XL, 8XL, and the GS Series 3M Steri-Vac sterilizers. A maximum of two Model 5XL,
two Model 8XL, or two GS Series sterilizers can be connected to a single EO Abator unit. Any combination of two of the
Model 5XL or 8XL sterilizers can be connected to a single EO Abator unit. The GS Series sterilizer must be connected
to a separate Abator. The Model 5XL or Model 8XL sterilizers CANNOT be combined with a GS Series sterilizer when
connecting to an Abator. Up to two additional Model XL Aerators can be added to the installation. The EO Abator
interfaces with the Model 5XL, Model 8XL, and GS Series sterilizers to start and stop automatically.
For 3M Model XL Aerator installations with the 5XL or 8XL sterilizer, the EO Abator must be configured to either run
continuously, or be wired as shown in Figure 7. For 3M Model XL Aeration installations with the GS Series sterilizers,
the sterilizer must be set to “Abator always on” in the Menu->Site Setup->Setup. See Figure 7 for Aerator venting
connections.
Contact your 3M service representative with questions.
