Fill & drain water
When you install the autoclave for the first time, after turn on the switch, then The machine displays lack of source water. Then you need to use the measuring cup to fill distilled water from the top inlet around 1500ml for the first time, next time do not filling the water too full. When the machine displays the used water full, please drain waster water out only after sterilizing in time. Please clean the brass filter inside the chamber, or it would effect the pressure releasing during the sterilization. Please clean the filter in the same time with you draining the used water.
Note : Be sure to fill distilled water .
- Before filling the distilled water, you must turn on the switch of the power!
- Please fill the distilled water only after finish working!
Function description Vacuum sterilizer is divided into the following processes: the preheating process;the vacuum step-up process; the sterilization process; the exhaust drying process; the pressure balance process.
preheating process:
Select the program first, then close the door, press start button to enter the preheating process, electrify heated steam generator heater reaches 100 ℃, electrify heated the chamber wall heater to set temperature 50 ℃.
vacuum process:
Chamber wall temperature to 50 ℃, when the steam generator temperature reaches 100 ℃, into the vacuum heating process, open the vacuum selection valve, exhaust valve (normally on) and start the vacuum pump, 300 seconds later Close the vacuum selection valve, exhaust valve (normally on) and the vacuum pump to stop pumping the vacuum. Pot inlet valve intermittent pumping power, as steam generator to generate steam. If the system is set up one pre-vacuum, the pressure rises to +0.5 Bar until the pot stops pumping, open the drain valve to drain the exhaust 0.0Bar to close drain valve, intermittent steam generator to pump water to generate steam, when the pot the temperature reaches the set value, the end of the vacuum and transferred to sterilized itinerary. If the system is set three times pre-vacuum, then when the pressure inside the chamber rise to +0.5 Bar ,end the first pulse. Start the pump again, and begin the second pre-vacuum process.
Sterilization process:
This trip is insulation packing process, when the pot temperature dropped to the set sterilization temperature of +0.5 ℃ , the pump starts pumping water to the steam generator, the pot temperature rise to the set sterilization temperature of +0.9 ℃ ,open the exhaust exhaust valve, allowing the pot temperature is kept between the set sterilization temperature +0.3 ℃ to the set sterilization temperature +0.9 ℃.
Exhaust drying process:
When the sterilization time, reduced to zero, into the exhaust stroke dry, open the drain valve to drain the pressure reduced to +0.0then the vacuum pump to start. When the drying time only 3 minutes ,open the intake valve to vacuum drying.
pressure equilibrium process:
When the drying time is reduced to zero, turn off the exhaust, dry intake valve opens, so that the pressure to achieve and external balance, open the automatic doors, complete sterilization.

Maintenance and Service
- Clean the top water tank by disinfectant or alcohol once a week.
- Disinfect and clean the interior surface of the autoclave chamber monthly.
- Replace the fuse.
- Shut off the power.
- Revolve the fuse base by counter-clockwise by a screwdriver to bring out the melting fuse to be replaced
- Replace the new fuse and reset the fuse base on the original position, then use the screwdriver to fasten the base by clockwise.
- Check the correctness of the data of the new fuse replaced.
Clean the sealing ring periodically The operator shall clean the sealing ring periodically for avoiding the influence to the seal caused by the dust/dirt left due to the long period use. Use the smooth cloth with distilled water to wipe the surface of the sealing ring or sealing cap gently. The user shall discharge the sealing ring for further cleaning or replacement if the air- leaking problem can not be resolved after the above process (The user shall discharge the sealing ring periodically for cleaning and inspection as recommendation by the supplier).
The replacement work for sealing ring
Tool: One flat screwdriver (No sharp edge at the head)
- One hand catches the lip of the sealing ring, the other hand insert the screwdriver into the clearance between the sealing ring and the door for raise up the sealing ring.
- After raising up part of the ring, you can use hand to draw the whole ring out. Wash its groove after drawing out the ring and pay attention to see whether it’s spoiled or not in consideration of the necessity of replacement.
- Put back the ring to the original door groove after cleaning. Most Important: the inset work must be done equably to the groove During the installation, the laid four equal points of the ring must be inserted to the groove firstly, later for the same work for the remaining segments of the ring. After finishing, press the sealing ring equally by the force of hand.
- Note: The inner circle of the ring may be raised up when insert the ring into the groove. Please press it to the groove by using the screwdriver carefully. Shut off the power and cooling the autoclave sufficiently before inserting the ring for avoiding scald
- Shut off the power before service or components’ replacement, and the service or replacement work shall be done by the technician.
Transportation and Storage
- The preparatory work before transportation and storage: Shut off the power, draw out the plug and cool the autoclave down.
Draining
Empty the water storing tank after the machine become colling; use the pipe packing together with the machine, connecting to the valve showing in the above picture A or B, A is the water exiting mouth for used water collecting tank, B is the water exiting mouth of the distilled source water storing tank. Revolving the water exit button by anticlockwise direction so as to release the water.

- The object apparatus to be sterilized shall be placed on the device plate with enough clearance retained in favor of the air circulation inside the sterilizing room.
- Empty the water inside the cooling water collecting tank frequently. Usually, the cooling water collecting tank shall be emptied once the water storing tank emptied.
- The door handle must be buttoned up before working.
- Don’t open the door of autoclave before seeing the “0” bar displayed on the pressure indicator.
- Not be too closed to the door of the autoclave in case of scald when open the door.
- Shut off the power before discharging/installing the sealing ring, and the work shall be carried out after further sufficient cooling in case of scald.
- Don’t drag or drop the autoclave during relocation period of the autoclave.
- The protecting ground shall be reliable.
