Stainless steel surfaces within reach of the operating personnel are
insulated and cooled to a harmless temperature.
Valves
If the equipment has electrically and/or pneumatically actuated valves
they are normally made to close by means of spring force. This prevents
undesired flow through the valves in case of power failure. A fail safe
function is achieved.
Pressure vessels
The sterilizer chamber and jacket are pressure vessels, designed and
built in accordance with standards laid down by official bodies charged
with monitoring this area of safety.
The connected supply lines from external steam, water or compressed
air networks must be protected against excessive pressure by safety
valves. The sterilizer supplier is not responsible for these valves.
Permitted supply media pressures are stated in “Technical data”.
Monitoring the pressure behind the door seal
All valves admitting any medium to the chamber are kept closed until
the pressure behind the door seal is high enough to guarantee the
tightness of the chamber.
