OPERATION
Program start
Where applicable, the operator must state process parameters and other
information requested by the control system. On equipment where an
authorisation code for programs not intended for routine sterilization is
activated, the operator must also enter an authorisation code
immediately after startup.
Via operator panel OP20
• When the start button is lit, the process is ready to start.
• Check that the correct program number is displayed on the operator
panel.
• Then start the process by pressing the start button.
Process startup is prevented if:
• there is an unacknowledged alarm
• the door is not closed and interlocked in accordance with the
conditions
• the control system has detected an interlocking error (affects door
safety)
• the keyswitch for manual stepping is activated
• the keyswitch for door blocking has been activated (only if there is a
keyswitch)
• media supply, eg steam or cooling water, is not available (only if the
sterilizer is equipped with sensors for this).
• the jacket temperature has not been reached or is too high (only if the
process includes jacket heating)
•
The operator must choose a program on the operator panel
via program buttons.
