The autoclaves Vitale have the following safety devices:
TEMPERATURE X PRESSURE DATA CROSSING ELECTRONIC SYSTEM - Internal system of the equipment which will check
the cycle, in case any problem is detected while reading the pressure in the chamber or if it exceeds the safety
limit, the cycle will be cancelled automatically.
2
SAFETY VALVE - It opens when the pressure reaches from 2,5 to 3 Kgf/cm or 245 to 294 kPa - See “Autoclave
Components Identification” (Item 7, page 9).
ANTI-VACUUM VALVE - It works the same way of the safety valve by releasing the vacuum build-up inside the
chamber. See “Autoclave Components Identification” (Item 7, page 9).
2
DOOR GASKET - In case the pressure exceeds 3 kgf/cm or 294 kPa, the door gasket will detach from the edge of
the door making a loud noise. See “Autoclave Components Identification” (Item 6, page 9).
FUSE - Safety device which purpose is to protect the electrical wiring against peaks of energy. The fuse used is the 20
AGLF Glass - Quick Action. In case the operator wishes to replace the fuse personally, the table below will provide
the necessary information. See “Troubleshooting” (Page 21).
