• Using leak detection spray, check all ports and other areas of the
equipment which come into question for leaks.
• Block off individual ports to rule out certain assemblies and localise the
area of the problem.
3.12 Super Dry (optional)
3.12.1 Position and function
This is used to efficiently dry solid objects, hollow objects and porous
sterilised goods such as filters or textiles. Steam is applied to the heating
coil in the sterilisation chamber using the steam generator, which then
heats up the condensation. This has a drying effect. If a vacuum unit is
fitted, this can support the drying process through vacuum deep-drying.
3.13 “HoldTemp” function (optional)
This function is used for maintaining the temperature in the sterilisation
chamber after the end of the program. The hold temperature can be set
using parameter 18 (HoldTemp).
On X devices, the temperature is maintained by the heating coil. On
E devices, the residual demineralised water is heated.
In order to activate the function, parameter 19 (HoldTime) must be set as
follows:
0 = Function inactive
1 = Unlimited time
2
= Hold function via steam valve, max. 24 hours (
)
>2
= Time in minutes
Special feature on X devices:
On X devices, the temperature can be maintained via a steam
inlet (max. 24 hours). The product will become wet in this case.
3.13.1 Maintenance tasks
Checking the functionality of the heating coil
The heating coil is maintenance-free – only the correct working of the
valve is checked, including the steam air extractor.
