12 Pause times
Frequency of sterilization
Pause times between the individual programs are not necessary, as the sterilization chamber is
maintained permanently at the same temperature. After the end/abort of the drying time and removal of the
sterilized equipment, you can load the steam sterilizer again and start a new program.
Operating pauses
Duration of the operating pause Measure
Short pauses between two sterilization
processes
▪ Keep the door closed to save energy
▪ Set the energy-saving mode correspondingly
Pauses which last longer than an hour ▪ Switch off the steam sterilizer
Longer pauses e.g. over night or the
weekend
▪ Switch off the steam sterilizer
▪ Push the door to, to prevent premature wear and the
sticking of the door seal.
▪ If present, shut off the water inflow of the water treatment
unit
Longer than two weeks ▪ Perform a vacuum test.
▪ After a successful vacuum test, perform an empty
sterilization run in Quick-Program S
After pauses, perform the checks described in chapter Function tests depending on the length of pause
Decommissioning
When decommissioning the steam sterilizer for a long pause (e.g. due to holiday), proceed as follows:
1. Empty the double jacket steam generator, see Emptying the double jacket [}page 63].
2. Switch off the steam sterilizer at the power switch.
3. After deactivating, wait until the pressure display manometer of the deactivation pressure shows 0
bar.
4. Remove the power plug from the socket and if necessary, allow the steam sterilizer to cool.
5. Empty the internal storage tank.
6. Shut off if present, the water inflow of the water treatment unit.
Emptying the double jacket
You have the option of draining the water in the double jacket steam generator easily via the Draining
program. In order to do so, the steam sterilizer is heated once, building up pressure in the double-jacket so
that the water can be drained fully from the double jacket steam generator.
1. Switch on the steam sterilizer at the power switch.
