    Why is there foam in the Steris Washer chamber?
    • A
      Angela HendricksAug 27, 2025
      If you observe foam in the chamber, it might be caused by using the wrong type of detergent. Refer to the detergent specifications and follow the detergent manufacturer's recommendations for the amount of detergent to be used. Additionally, too much chemical injected during treatment can cause foam. Verify the chemical injection time in Automatic mode.
