      Jeffrey WalterAug 25, 2025
      If you find water in the chamber or door channel at the end of a cycle in your Amsco Laboratory Equipment, there are several possible causes: * The drain may be plugged or clogged, so clean the drain. * The steam separator/strainer may be plugged, so clean it. * The drain line check valve may be defective, so replace it.

    Why are wrapped goods wet in Amsco Laboratory Equipment?
    • J
      Julie RobertsAug 28, 2025
      If wrapped goods are wet after completing a cycle, or there is excessive vapor in the chamber when the door is opened on your Amsco Laboratory Equipment, the dry time might be too short for the load type. Try increasing the setting for dry time.

    What causes high pressure and low temperature in Amsco EAGLE 3023 Laboratory Equipment?
    • E
      erichuntAug 31, 2025
      If, during the sterilize phase, the pressure is too high and the temperature is too low in your Amsco Laboratory Equipment, it might be due to air trapped in the chamber because of a clogged strainer or drain. Clean the strainer inside the chamber, and flush and clean the drain line and traps.

    Why isn't the jacket pressure rising in Amsco EAGLE 3023?
    • W
      williamsronaldSep 12, 2025
      If the jacket pressure does not rise to the required level in your Amsco Laboratory Equipment, consider the following: * Ensure the steam supply hand valve is open; if not, open the valve. * There may be a flood condition or the steam supply solenoid valve is closed. * The steam supply may be less than 50 psig (3.52 kg/sq.cm) dynamic; check the supply pressure and increase if necessary.
