Lifting and carrying
CAUTION:
Before moving the autoclave, Make sure that the electric
cord is disconnected from the power, and there is no
pressure in the chamber and in the generator.
Attention! The pressure of the generator does not decrease
immediately when the equipment is turned off. Wait
approx. ½ an hour to verify that the pressure has decreased
to atmospheric pressure.
1. Disconnect the power supply cord.
2. Drain the water from both reservoirs.
To avoid injuries, lifting and carrying should be done with at
least two persons or by using a fork-lift or any other mechanical
aid.
Do not drop the device!
3.1.2
Unpacking the autoclave
Unpack the autoclave and inspect for mechanical damage upon
receipt. Observe packing method and retain packing materials
until the unit has been inspected. Mechanical inspection
involves checking for signs of physical damage such as:
scratched panel surfaces, broken knobs, etc.
To avoid injuries, lifting and carrying of the autoclave should be

Installation preparations
1.
Check and verify that the counter carrying the autoclave is
a
rigid
and
leveled
surface
and
can
carry
a
load
of
225 lbs
(102kg).
Attention:
The Elara11 is not designed for use on any standard slide
out shelf. If it is necessary to use a slide out shelf, it must
be tested and/or rated for 225 lbs or more
2.
Check and verify that the counter dimensions are, at least,
22” wide x 24” deep (55cm x 63.5cm).
3.
Keep the back and the sides of the autoclave approximately
2” (5
cm
)
away
from
the
wall
to
allow ventilation and
facilitate the device disconnection.
4.
If placed in a cabinet, verify that the rear of the cabinet is
open to allow ventilation.
Insufficient space for ventilation may result in an increase
of the autoclave's temperature that may cause a malfunction
or damage the instrument.
