MAINTENANCE
Disinfecting
Disinfect the oven if algae, mold, bacteria, or other biological contaminants are an issue. For
maximum effectiveness, disinfection procedures are typically performed after cleaning. Keep the
following points in mind:
•
Turn off and unplug the unit to safeguard against electrical hazards.
•
Disinfect the oven chamber using commercially available disinfectants that are non-
corrosive, non-abrasive, and suitable for use on stainless steel and glass surfaces. Contact
your local Site Safety Officer for detailed information on which disinfectants are compatible
with your applications.
•
If permitted by your protocol, remove all interior accessories (any shelving and other non-
attached items) from the chamber when disinfecting.
•
Disinfect all surfaces in the chamber, making sure to thoroughly disinfect the corners.
Exercise care to avoid damaging the sensor probes.
•
When disinfecting external surfaces, use disinfectants that will not damage painted metal,
glass, and plastic.

NTEGRITY
Periodically, inspect the door latch, trim, catch, and gasket for signs of deterioration. Failure to
maintain the integrity of the door system shortens the lifespan of the unit.

ASKETS
The ovens come with cured silicone gaskets that help seal the chamber door when under vacuum.
The gaskets are rated to 446°F (230°C) and are vulnerable to acids and solvents. See the
Replacement Parts chapter at the end of this manual to order replacement gaskets.
The chamber liner gasket is exposed to heating, the chamber atmosphere, and significant
compressive force, and requires periodic replacement. Check the liner gasket for cracking, dryness,
brittleness, or other signs indicating a loss of elasticity. Heavy use will necessitate frequent checks
and replacements of the door gasket.
Replacement Procedure: The gasket can be pulled off and the replacement easily installed by
pushing it into place. The edges of the chamber liner at the door may be sharp. Exercise caution
while working with the seal.
