Why the sterilization process phase of a sterilization cycle was longer than expected in W&H Med Laboratory Equipment?
If the sterilization process phase of a sterilization cycle was longer than expected, wait for cycle completion. If the problem occurs frequently, call technical service. This is because the chamber temperature dropped below the minimum threshold and the software performed a successful recovery.
Why are there corrosion or spots on instruments after using W&H Med Lisa VA131-17 Laboratory Equipment?
Corrosion or spots on instruments can appear due to several reasons: * Tap water on instruments when placed in the sterilizer. Ensure that instruments are dry before they are placed in the sterilizer. * Poor water quality or water containing chemical substances. Drain both water tanks and use water of good quality. * Organic or chemical residues on the instruments. Clean, rinse, and dry instruments before placing them in the sterilizer. * Dirty chamber, trays, or chamber rack. Clean the chamber and wash the chamber furniture. * Contact between instruments of different materials. Ensure that instruments of different materials do not touch; place them on different trays or cassettes or pouch them. * Scale deposits on the chamber. Clean the chamber and use water of good quality.
What to do if W&H Med Laboratory Equipment sterilizer enters into standby mode immediately after opening the chamber door?
