6.4 Program 4: Liquid B – Waste
For liquids when the manufacturer recommends autoclaving at
temperatures of 121C (250F) for 30 minutes, such as liquid waste.
Note: both PT100 temperature sensors must be inside the bottles
For proper sterilization, fill the bottles with approximately the same
amount of liquid.
Nominal parameters default settings
Sterilization temperature: 121C (250F)
Sterilization time: 30 minutes
Operations Sequence
(PV, pre-vacuum model only) Air removal stage; four vacuum pulses
removes air by drawing the chamber down to 20kPa.
Water enters the chamber and is heated until pressure reaches 110 kPa
Heating by actuation of electrical heaters until the sterilization
temperature is reached.
Sterilization temperature is maintained constant during the sterilization
time.
Slow exhaust; the steam is slowly exhausted from the chamber, until it
reaches the required end temperature (approx. 85ºC) and the pressure
equals the atmospheric pressure.
