Binder CB 160 - Aborting Hot-Air Sterilization after Less than 4 Hours

CB (E6.1) 07/2017 Page 110/145
Aborting the sterilization cycle means cancelling it before the entire 10-hour duration is completed.
Whether effective sterilization has occurred depends on the time that has elapsed bevor abortion.
• Aborting sterilization after less than 4 hours: Prevents effective sterilization.
This symbol on the controller display indicates that the hot-air sterilization was aborted.
The interior may still be hot. Do not touch the glass door and inner surfaces!
• Aborting / terminating sterilization after more than 4 hours: The chamber is in the cooling-down phase,
meaning that the necessary duration for the proper sterilization phase has occurred.
This symbol on the controller display indicates a successful hot-air sterilization.
The sterilization cycle is now in the cooling down phase.
