Sterilizer Operation

6.12.2  Vacuum Leak Test

This cycle is used for testing vacuum integrity of the sterilizer and
piping. 

A Vacuum Leak Test cycle should be run on the sterilizer at least
once each week. It should be one of the first cycles run for the day,
but not the first cycle. In this cycle, the sterilizer automatically checks
for vacuum leaks in the piping and door seal. If the sterilizer fails the
leak test, it must be inspected by a qualified service technician. (This
test is not a substitute for a Dart [Bowie-Dick] test.) The Leak Test
can also be used to confirm that the sterilizer piping is intact after
performing repairs.

NOTE: 

The measured leak rate (millimeters of mercury [mmHg] per

minute) is calculated by the control over a timed 10-minute period and
is included in the cycle printout. A leak rate of 1 mm Hg/minute or less
is considered acceptable.

Before running Leak Test cycle, refer to

 (at the beginning of this section). 

NOTE: 

The sterilizer should be warm before running this test

cycle. If no other cycle has been run on the sterilizer before the
Leak Test, run a Dart Warm Up cycle.

Press 

MORE CYCLES

. The Leak Test cycle touch-screen pad 

appears on display.

3.

To start the Leak Test, press the 

LEAK TEST

 touch-screen pad. 

Printer records cycle start. Cycle runs automatically as follows:

NOTE: 

Cycle requires 30-35 minutes to complete.

ACTIVATE SEAL – Steam enters the door seal, pressing seal against

inside surface of door.

PURGE – Chamber is purged; printer records end of purge.

PULSE #1

 

(and PULSE #2) – Two vacuum and pressure pulses then

occur and printer records each.

CHARGE – After the pressure pulses, temperature rises to 270°F

(132°C), unit begins to draw a vacuum for 10 minutes. (Printer
records temperature and pressure at beginning of 10-minute
vacuum time.) 

LEAK TEST/EVACUATING – Printer records temperature and vacuum

at end of evacuation time.

LEAK TEST/STABILIZING – 2 -minute stabilization period begins after

10-minute evacuation is completed.

LEAK TEST – Ten minute Leak Test period begins after 2-minute

stabilization is completed. Printer records calculated leak rate (mm
Hg per minute) after 10-minute leak time.

AIR BREAK – Chamber is returned to atmospheric pressure, complete

tone sounds and cycle summary and end of cycle messages are
printed. 

RETRACT SEAL – A vacuum is drawn on the seal, retracting it from

inner surface of door.

COMPLETE – Complete tone sounds. Cycle summary and end of cycle

messages are printed. 

4.

Once the sterilizer completes and passes the leak test, the unit 
can be used.

WARNING – BURN HAZARD: 

» Sterilizer, rack/shelves, and 

loading car will be hot after 
cycle is run. Always wear 
protective gloves and apron 
when removing a processed 
load. Protective gloves and 
apron must be worn when 
reloading sterilizer following 
the previous operation.

» Steam may be released from 

the chamber when door is 
opened. Step back from the 
sterilizer each time the door 
is opened to minimize 
contact with steam vapor.

WARNING – STERILITY 
ASSURANCE HAZARD: 
According to AAMI standards, 
a measured leak rate greater 
than 1 mm Hg/minute (1.3 
mbar/min) indicates a problem 
with the sterilizer. Refer the 
situation to a qualified service 
technician before using the 
sterilizer further.
