Chapter 3.
Routine Maintenance
This chapter presents the routine maintenance, or PM (planned
maintenance) procedures that are performed on the STERRAD
®
100S
Sterilizer. There are two maintenance intervals: PM Level 1 and PM
Level 2. These intervals are tracked by the system and the user is
notified when the PM is due. The PM Level 1 is performed every 1500
cycles or 6 months whichever comes first. PM Level 2 is performed
every 3000 cycles or 1 year, whichever comes first.
In addition, there are a number of “as needed” maintenance activities to
be performed. These are presented near the end of this chapter.
