The cycle phases are analogous to what is described in the Chapter, “Running a Sterilization
Program”.
At the end of the program, remove the test device, open the capsule and remove the indicator
from its housing.
If the steam has correctly penetrated, the ink will have completely changed color from what it
was before, along the entire length of the strip; if not (insufficient penetration) there will be only
a partial variation or none at all.
NOTE
N
ORMALLY THE COLOR CHANGE IS FROM A LIGHT COLOR
(
BEIGE
,
YELLOW
,
ETC
.)
TO A
DARK COLOR
(
BLUE

USE AND INDICATION AND ANY OTHER TECHNICAL DETAILS
.
The duration of the test is about 22 minutes.
As the door is opened at the end of the cycle, a report will be printed of the salient data for the
test cycle performed.
Attach the chemical indicator in the space provided, initial the document and file it in a suitable
place.
For complete details about printing summaries, please refer to the report examples shown in
Appendix B, Programs.
VACUUM TEST
To select the VACUUM TEST program, press the Test Selection key one or two times until
the display reads:
V A C U U M T E S T

The Vacuum Test program is run with the sterilization chamber empty, and only the trays
and their supports.

.
To avoid the heating of the sterilization chamber influencing the variation of the vacuum value
measured during the Vacuum Test, the system is programmed to prevent its execution when
the temperature sensors of the sterilization chamber shows a value higher than 50° C.
If you try to start the program with a higher temperature than indicated above, the liquid crystal
display will read:
W A R N I N G !
P T 1 O V E R H E A T I N G

After a short time, the device will automatically return to STAND-BY mode, ready for use.
