Caracteristics and operation
Manometer
It’s used for temperature and pressure control, and its graduation range
from 0 kgf/cm² to 4.0 kgf/cm² and from 100ºC to 152 ºC.
Manometer’s tolerance variation
Divide the manometer’s scale by three equal parts.
For the first part, the tolerance is 3%, for the second part is 2%, and
for the third is 3%.
Sealing ring
Besides sealing the door, it also works as a safety device, relieving
chamber’s internal pressure in casa of overpressure.
If the sealing ring were moved from its place, call a authorized technician
to carry out the maintenance of the equipment.
Safety seal and anti-vacuum valve
Placed in the internal part of the door, they diminish the pressure in the chamber, in case it exceeds.
The anti-vacuum valve has the same function, and it also reduces the pressure of the chamber if
it were negative (vacuum).
NOTE:
If during the sterilization procedure the valves were opened, the operator can reset them.
However, the appropriate cooling time must be observed in order to prevent accidents.
If the valves were opened repeatedly, call a authorized technician.
NOTE: Execute the replacement of the safety seal and anti-vacuum valve within the period “of 36
months”. If it is necessary to do it before the period indicated, request the presence of an authorized
technician.
