Cycle and Control Value Programming Operator Manual P129390-106
Amsco
®
Evolution™ sterilizers are shipped with factory-set cycles,
cycle values and control values programmed into the control (see
Table 7-1). These preset values can be changed to tailor the
sterilizer to the operating environment in which it has been installed.
To change these values, refer to S
ECTION 7.3.2, CHANGE CYCLE
VALUES PROCEDURE, PAGE 7-5.
NOTE: If a battery/memory failure should occur, operator-set cycles
and values would be lost. The factory-set cycles, cycle values and
control values would then appear on the display when the sterilizer
power is switched on.
Important: Applicable cycles have been validated to satisfy the
requirements outlined in Table 4-1. If cycle parameters (sterilize time
or dry time) other than those in Table 7-1 are required, it is the
responsibility of the healthcare facility to validate the cycle.
Reference EN ISO 17665-1:2006 for a guide to validating sterilization
cycles and to ensure drying efficiencies are met.
