NSK DXP clave - Sterilization Phase (3); Drying Phase (4); End of Cycle

Using the sterilizer
5.8.3 Sterilization phase (3)
During the sterilization phase, the temperature and pressure are kept stable for a predefined
time in order to carry out the load sterilization process.
The STOP during this phase leads to an interruption of the cycle according to EN 13060.
5.8.4 Drying phase (4)
The drying phase begins at the end of the sterilization phase, the duration of which complies
with the predefined parameters. At the end of the drying phase it will be possible to unlock the
door and remove the load. The STOP during this phase does not involve the interruption of the
cycle as the sterilization phase is completed.
If starting with a cold machine, the drying time automatically increases by 4 minutes.
5.8.5 End of cycle
At the end of the cycle the screen will change color and will indicate if the
cycle has finished successfully (green).
Sterilized instruments and the sterilization chamber are very hot.
Remove the trays very carefully using the special tool and without
letting parts of the body come into contact with the hot parts.
To unlock and open the door, press the button with the padlock located
under the screen and rotate the handle (see par.5.2).
The selected cycle is finished and the load can be picked up.
If a fault occurs during the cycle or an out of tolerance parameter is detected, the screen will turn a different color
and the error code that caused the problem will appear (the door will remain locked).
To view the error, press the error code that appears on the screen (example in the photo, button A50).
After checking the error, press the X button to exit the cycle.
The instruments and sterilization chamber are very hot. There is also the risk of bacteriological
contamination.
In the presence of a printer (optional), the microprocessor sends the most significant data of the cycle to the
printer to have a detailed report printed on paper with the certification value of the process carried out.
The display now returns to the HOME menu.
From this moment the sterilizer is ready to run a new program.
The operator can prepare a new load and start a new sterilization cycle benefiting from a much faster heating time
since the chamber is already hot.
At the end of the sterilization cycle, lubricate the internal mechanisms of any sterilized handpieces, using
the appropriate lubricating oil. This operation is useful in not reducing the life of the instrumentation.
