INSTALLATION
GENERAL
For the right operation, features exploitation and life extension of the sterilizer, the first and basic step is the correct and careful installation.
Such precaution besides avoids possible malfunctions or damages to the equipment, as well as possible danger situations for property and
people.

We suggest to meticulously follow the warnings reported on this chapter.


e The sterilizer is forwarded after having passed a set of programmed controls. Therefore further calibrations for the operation are not
necessary any more.

Power supply

The electric plant to which the sterilizer is connected has to be correctly sized according to the electric characteristics of the equipment. The
rating data are on the rear panel of the machine.

e Install the equipment so that the plug of the mains cable can be easily accessible.

Verify the adequacy of the electric plant particularly for the earth connection.

B s -B b
Page 1-10
Dimensions for build mounting

Should the sterilizer be set into a piece of furniture, it is necessary to provide a suitable space all around the equipment in order to assure an
effective ventilation, as well as a free space in the rear side for the draining pipelines and power cord.

Accordingly it is essential that the build for the


installation has the following minimum dimensions:

Height 450 mm
Width 550 mm
450
Depth 570 mm

550 500

Build dimensions smaller than the indicated ones can jeopardize the air circulation around the equipment and not guarantee a
suitable cooling, with consequent reduction of the performances and/or possible damages.

If after the installation of the sterilizer the mains breaker is not accessible, use a mains socket incorporating a switch.

Don't remove the carter neither other external elements. Arrange into the build the equipment complete in every part.

For the complete technical data refer Technical Characteristics.

B s -B b
Page 1-11
GENERAL INSTALLATION DIRECTIONS
In order to assure the correct operation of the equipment and/or avoid situations of risk, observe the following directions:
– Install the sterilizer on a plain surface.
– Verify that the plane is able to support the weight of the equipment (abt. 44 kg);
– Allow a suitable space for the ventilation (at least 10 cm) all around the sterilizer, particularly in the rear side.
– In case the equipment is set into a piece of furniture, verify the respect of the warnings as above indicated, avoiding possible obstruction of
the air slots;
– Do not install the sterilizer near tubs, sinks or analogous places, avoiding the contact with water or liquid. Otherwise, short circuits and/or
situations of potential danger for the operator could occur;
– Do not install the sterilizer in environments characterized by the presence of excessive humidity or in rooms with poor ventilation;
– Do not install the sterilizer in environments characterized by the presence of inflammable and explosive gas or vapors;
– Install the equipment in such a way the power cable could not be bent or crushed. The cable should run freely to the A.C. socket.

From the rear vent fitting steam exit could occur. Install the sterilizer
in such a way the rear side is seeing a wall and not a passage or
parking area. If necessary, put a pipe on the rear fitting (max 1.5 m) in
order to convey the vent. Do not bend or crush the pipe that should
freely run into a container gathering the condensation (see example
of the figure). Do not immerse into water the free side of the pipe,
since this should be able to suck air as necessary.

B s -B b
Page 1-12
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
The sterilizer should be connected, in compliance with the in-force laws and/or directives, to a mains socket of the electric plant with a power rate
suitable for the equipment consumption and provided with earth connection.
The mains socket should be suitably protected through differential switch having the following characteristics:
Differential switch Mains socket
– Rating current In 10 A with earth pin

– Differential current I∆n 0,03 A

Mains switch

e The manufacturer is not liable for the damages caused by an installation where a not
suitable electric plant and/or earth connection are provided.

In case the mains plug doesn’t match the socket, replace the cable plug with a suitable
type of same electrical characteristics or anyway suitable for the electrical requirements
of the equipment.

The plug choice and replacement is at care and responsibility of the user.

Directly connect the supplied cable to the plug/socket. Don't use extensions, adapters or
other accessories.

Connect the plug of the supplied mains cord to the rear inlet of the machine and the other side of
the cable to a mains socket.

TREATEMENT OF THE MATERIAL

INTRODUCTION
The process sterilization can consider effective, reliable and repeatable on condition that the material is first suitably treated and subsequently
tidy and correctly arranged into the sterilization chamber.

We notice that the organic residues or deposits of substances used in the medical practice are obviously receptacles of microorganisms and can
hamper the contact of the steam with the instrument surfaces, inactivating, at least locally, the lethal process that the sterilization normally
guarantees.

An incorrect arrangement of the load can lead to a difficult and sometimes impossible flowing and/or penetration of the steam on the material,
with imaginable consequences. The drying process can strongly be also affected by this factor.

Therefore we suggest some basic directions concerning this aspects, leaving the user to deepen the problem in the most opportune way.

BEFORE STERILIZING
Before everything we remember some precautions that are basic for the handling and moving the contaminated material:

– Wear rubber gloves of suitable thickness;


– Wash one’s hands, already covered by the gloves, with a germicide detergent;
– Always use a tray to move the tools;
– Do never transport them directly picking up by hand;
– Protect the hands from the contact of possible sharpened or cutting parts in order to avoid the risk of dangerous infections;
– Immediately separate each item that has not to be sterilized or is not be able to support this process;
– Wash carefully one’s hands covered with the gloves as the handling the not sterile material is over.
All the material and/or instruments to be sterilized should be then perfectly cleaned and deprived of whatever kind residues (organic and
inorganic deposits, fragments of paper, buffer of cotton or gauze, calcareous residues etc.).

e The lack of the cleaning and removal residue procedure, besides to cause problems during the sterilization process, can provoke
damages to the tools and/or the very same sterilizer.

B s -B b
Page 1-14
For an effective cleaning, proceed as follows:

1. Rinse under a throw of running water the tools immediately after the use;
2. Separate the metallic instruments according to the material type (carbon steel, stainless steel, brass, aluminum, chrome, etc.) in order to
avoid electrolyte oxidation;
3. Wash by using an ultrasonic equipment with a mixture of water and germicidal solution, taking care to follow the recommendations of the
manufacturer.
4. To obtain the best results use a neutral pH detergent specifically studied for the ultrasonic washing.

e Solutions containing phenols or quaternary ammonium mixtures can cause corrosion on the tools and metallic parts of the ultrasonic
equipment.

5. After the washing, carefully rinse the tools and verify the complete elimination of the residues; if necessary repeat the washing cycle or
operate manually.

e If possible, use deionized or distilled water for the rinsing operation in order to prevent the formation of calcareous stains. If high hardness
tap water is used for this operation, it is advised to always dry the instruments.

Consult the indications supplied by the manufacturer of the instrument/material to be sterilized before treating it into the
autoclave, verifying possible incompatibilities. Meticulously follow the use instructions of the cleansing or disinfectant
products and the operating manual of the washing and/or lubrication automatic equipments.

B s -B b
Page 1-15
ARRANGEMENT OF THE LOAD
To get the better effectiveness of the sterilization process and to preserve the material in time, follow the indications below reported.

General notes for the arrangement of the load on the trays.

– Arrange the tools of different metal (stainless steel, moderate steel, aluminum, etc.) on different trays or however
well separate between them.
– In case of not stainless steel tools, interpose a sterilization paper napkin or muslin cloth between tray and tool,
avoiding direct contacts between the two different materials;

OK
– Arrange however the objects sufficiently outdistanced, in order they maintain the layout for the whole sterilization
cycle;
– Verify all the tools are sterilized in open position;
– Arrange the cutting tools, (scissors, lancets, etc.) so they cannot come in contact during the sterilization process; if
necessary use a cotton cloth or gauze to isolate and protect them;
– Arrange the containers (glasses, cups, test-tubes, etc.) on one side or inverted position, avoiding possible water
stagnation;
– Don’t overload the trays over the stated limit (see Technical Characteristics). In a lot of situations, this maximum
admitted value might be excessive; in this case always use a bit of common sense.
OK
– Don’t stack the trays one above the other or put them in direct contact with the walls of the sterilization chamber.
Always use the supplied tray-holder.
– To introduce and extract the trays from the sterilization chamber, always use the supplied special tray removal tong.

e Being the available sterilization programs not provided with a drying phase, it's recommended to not wrap the
instruments.

e To detect the process result, set a sterilization indicator test per each tray: this precaution avoids from processing
once again the same load or, for the worse, from using a not sterilized material.

B s -B b
Page 1-16
PRESERVING THE STERILIZED MATERIAL
The sterilized material has to adequately be handled and preserved to maintain own sterility in time until its use.

An improper maintenance can provoke its fast recontamination.

However this provokes an hazardous situation, as the alternative is to use the contaminated material (unconsciously in many cases) with risk for
both operator and patient, or to perform a new sterilization process with inevitable waste of time and resources.

Therefore we retain useful to give some basic advice, letting the operator make further carefully investigations

HANDLING

By assuming that the sterilizer is arranged in a clean place, without dust and damp, pay attention to the following indications when handling and
moving the sterile material:

1. Remove the load from the sterilization chamber by wearing cleaned, or better, sterile gloves and white uniform. For greater precaution put a
protective mask on the face;
2. Place the trays on a dry table, suitably cleaned and disinfected. Pay attention to outdistance or however separate the sterile material from
the area of the contaminated material to be sterilized;
3. Touch the material and/or the tools as less is possible, paying very much attention do not lacerate or damage the wraps;
4. Let the tools cool before transporting (and storing). If necessary, use dry, clean and disinfected containers to move the material. The
containers must be closed or, if open type, covered with clean cloths.

B s -B b
Page 1-17
STORING

The sterile material, on waiting for the use, must be stored by taking opportune measures in order to slow as possible the contamination process.

1. Preserve the material and/or tools inside the protective wraps used for the sterilization. Don’t wrap the tools after the sterilization as such
practice, besides to be useless, is completely without meaning;
2. Store the material in a dry place, suitably clean and disinfected, away from areas where the infected material transits. If possible, prefer the
closed areas provided with ultraviolet illumination;
3. Identify the sterile material by affixing the sterilization date (use a copy of the printed report or an adhesive labels);
4. In the first place use the material stored for longer time (by using a FIFO criteria, "first in first out"). This allows to have homogeneously
stored material, avoiding too long storing periods with consequent risks.
5. Don’t store for long time the material. Do not neglect that, even if the above indications have been followed, the material tends however to
degrade, with a new contamination within a certain time.

e Check on the specifications supplied by the manufacturer of the packing material for the maximum storing time admitted.

MAINTENANCE
GENERAL
In order to guarantee a sure and efficient operation for the whole life of the equipment, a regular maintenance by the user as well as the correct
use are necessary.

For a better quality of the maintenance, it is necessary to integrate the ordinary controls with periodic check-up by the Customer Service.

In addition, a periodic validation of the device, i.e. the check of the thermodynamic process parameters and its comparison with reference
values measured by tools suitably adjusted, is fundamental.
Refer to the paragraph Periodic Validation of the sterilizer.

The ordinary maintenance, as described below, consists of easy manual operations and preventive activities by using simple tools.

In case of component or equipment part replacement, require for and/or use ONLY ORIGINAL SPARE PARTS.

ORDINARY MAINTENANCE

SCHEDULE
The following table reports an overview of the type and interval of the maintenance activities to be performed in order to maintain the sterilizer
always efficient. We suggest to shorten the maintenance interval in case of heavy use:

DAILY Cleaning of the porthole gasket and cover.


Cleaning of the external surfaces
WEEKLY Cleaning of the sterilization chamber and accessories
Desinfection of the external surfaces
MONTLY Lubrication of the door locking mechanism
Cleaning of the vent fitting and lubrication of O-ring
Maintenance of the safety valve
EVERY 3/6 MONTHS
Cleaning (or replacement) of the draining filter
(depending on the use frequency)
YEARLY Validation of the sterilizer

B s -B b
Page 1-22
GENERAL DIRECTIONS

Always refer to the following general directions:

– Do not wash the sterilizer with direct pressurized or rain throw water. Possible water penetrations on electric and electronic components
could jeopardize, also irreparably, the operation of the equipment or internal parts;
– Do not use cleaning abrasive cloths, metallic brushes (or other abrasive materials) for cleaning the equipment or the sterilization chamber;
– Do not use chemical products or disinfectant substances for cleaning the sterilization chamber. These products could provoke possible
damages, sometimes irremediable, to the sterilization chamber;
– Do not let the calcareous or dirty residues accumulate on the sterilization chamber, porthole cover and gasket, but provide for their periodic
removal. In the time these residues could cause damages on this parts, and jeopardize the operation of the components installed in the
hydraulic circuit.

e The presence of white spots at the base of the inside wall of the chamber means the use of poor quality demineralized water.

Before carrying out the ordinary maintenance operations, check that the mains switch of the sterilizer is in
OFF position (equipment switched off) .
If the disconnection of the power supply from the equipment is impossible and the external mains breaker is
far or however not visible to the people in charge of the maintenance, the notice WORK IN PROGRESS must
be positioned on the breaker after having switched it in off position.

As for every equipment, a decadence of the performances and components during the life, depending on the utilization type and frequency, is
inevitable.

In order to guarantee a constant process safety it is necessary to verify, at periodic expiration (possibly yearly), the process thermodynamic
parameters (pressure and temperature), checking if these are remaining within admitted limits or not.

The performance validation of the sterilizer is at care and responsibility of the user.

The reference European standards EN 554 (Sterilization of the medical devices - Method for the validation and systematic control of the steam
sterilization) and EN 556 (Sterilization of the medical devices – Requirements for the medical devices marked with “STERILE” indication) supply
an effective guide tool for carrying out the verifications on the steam sterilizers.

Since these controls require, besides a specific experience and knowledge, the use of a special tools (high accuracy sensors and probes, data
logger, dedicated software, etc.), properly verified and adjusted, it is necessary to address to companies specialized in this activity.

e M.O.COM. Customer Service is at your disposal to supply every possible information concerning the periodic validation of the
sterilizers.

THE PROGRAMS

GENERAL

The steam sterilization is suggested for nearly all the materials and tools on condition that these are able to support without damages a
sterilization temperature of 121°C (on the contrary other sterilization systems at lower temperature should be used).

The material normally autoclavable into a steam sterilizer is as follows:

– Stainless steel surgical instruments;


– Stainless steel generic tools;
– Carbon steel generic tools;
– Dynamic instruments, air motorized by gears (turbines, contrangles, removal tools, etc.);
– Glass articles:
– Mineral basis articles;
– Heat-proof plastic articles;
– Heat-proof rubber articles;
– Heat-proof textile articles;
– Treatment material (gauzes, tampons, etc.);
– Other autoclavable generic material.

process times, allow the sterilization of wrapped solid instruments only if packed in non multilayer wrapping.

It should be moreover remarked that this device cannot guarantee an adequate drying of the wrapped load.

SELECTING A CYCLE
The program choice is fundamental for the success of the sterilization process.

GENERAL
Since every tool or material has conformation, consistence and different characteristics, it is very important to individualize the more suitable
program, both to preserve its physical characteristics (avoiding or however limiting any alterations) and to guarantee the better sterilization
effectiveness.

CHOICE OF THE STERILIZATION PROGRAM

ALARMS

GENERAL

Each time an anomalous condition occurs during the sterilizer operation an alarm signaling with a specific code (formed by one letter and three
figures) will be generated.

The alarm codes are divided in three categories:

• E = ERROR
Wrong action and/or use, or external equipment cause.
Problem generally recoverable by the user.
Code format: Exxx (xxx = identification number 000 ÷ 999)

• A = ALARM
Failure of first level, not concerning the safety.
Problem generally recoverable on site by a specialized technician.
Code format: Axxx (xxx = identification number 000 ÷ 999)

• H = HAZARD
Failure of second level, involving the safety.
Problem generally recoverable by the Customer Service.
Code format: Hxxx (xxx = identification number 000 ÷ 999)

ALARM PROCEDURE
The intervention of the alarm procedure causes the interruption of the program (or the normal operation), associated with the alarm code
displaying and an acoustic signaling, and the lighting of the alarm red led (steady or intermittent).

This procedure is designed in order to avoid the user from any possible confusion between an anomalous cycle and the correctly completed
one, and consequently from unintentionally using the not sterile material.

The performing of the alarm procedure differs according to whether it occurs during or out the program execution, and is structured for driving
the user until the final RESET of the sterilizer.

ALARM OCCURRING DURING THE STERILIZATION CYCLE


If the alarm occurs during the sterilization program, the display will show:

X # # #

where Xxxx represents the alarm code (E, A o H) and # is the alarm number occurred.
The equipment automatically performs a procedure for the return to the ambient pressare condition in the sterilization chamber. Reached the
safety conditions, the display signaling will flash and a beep sounds.
Open the door, and reset the system must according to the indication explained on the following.

ALARM OCCURRING OUT THE STERILIZATION CYCLE


If the alarm occurs out the sterilization program, the display will show:

CLOSING CROSS-BAR ADJUSTMENT

e Before performing the service, switch off the equipment and unplug
the power supply cable from the mains socket.

This adjustment should be performed each time the cross-bar, left block or pin of
the closing assembly is replaced.

1. Do not tighten the two screws fixing the left block to the chamber frame. Keep the
cross-bar horizontally in such a way the closing hook enters freely in the front
panel slot (1); so tighten before the lower screw (2) and then the upper screw.
Check for the right closing;
2. Check, with the porthole cover mounted, the right working of the closing
assembly; in case of its misalignment, remove or add spacers (3) under the left
block of the cross-bar ;

In case of leakage from the gasket, identify the area and correct the
adjustment.
e Before performing the service, switch off the equipment and unplug
the power supply cable from the mains socket.

Each time any components of the closing system have to be replaced, it is


necessary to remove also the porthole cover from the cross-bar; when
reassembling you need to readjust it. The same adjustment should be performed
also in case the chamber gasket is replaced. The adjustment procedure is
performed in two steps

SWING AND SLANT ADJUSTMENT


Act on the two screws fixing the porthole cover.
1. Screw down up to the screw-heads are at the cross-bar surface level.
2. Check that the porthole cover is not blocked and for its little offset.
3. Screw more down the upper screw and check to close.
4. When opening the cross-bar the upper part of the porthole cover should detach
from the gasket before.

DISTANCE ADJUSTMENT
Adjust the right porthole cover distance from the gasket. Swing & Slant
Basculamento
1. Let the door to approach the closing position without acting on the handle; no e piega
beep is generated in this condition;
2. The handle will be partially projecting, and the beep will be generated only by
pushing on the handle;
3. In case the operating differs from what described above, act on the large central
screw to adjust the distance of the porthole cover. Screw down to shorten the Profondità
Distance
distance or unscrew slightly to increase the distance and make the closing more
soft.

These adjustments affect each other; adjust again the first after having
performed the second and vice versa up to obtain a balance between swing,
slant and distance

FRICTION ADJUSTMENT

e Before performing the service, switch off the equipment and unplug
the power supply cable from the mains socket.

This adjustment should be performed each time the snail spring is replaced or the
service has been requested to solve a closing problem.

1. Use a large pliers to keep locked the lower block (1) of the closing hook, and act
on the handle to open/close.
2. If the movement occurs freely without encountering any resistance, the friction
should be adjusted as follows:
– Use a wrench #8 to keep the locknut (2) and screw down the cap screw of the
friction; test again the resistance encountered by open/close the handle as before
– Repeat the adjustment if necessary.
– If the handle movement encounters high resistance, the friction must be loosen by
adjusting the cap screw in reverse direction.
3. Carry out gradually the adjustment and test more times the working of the friction.
4. Close the service by performing a sterilization cycle and verify the correct
opening of the door at the end of the cycle.
