combined with the fractionated flow method. A piston pump used to create
the vacuum combines the advantages of great efficacy with extreme
robustness in continuous operation. Thus the autoclave can be
immediately put into operation without additional installation work, apart
from providing the necessary power supply. For the optional connection of
the one-way drain and an external water treatment unit please follow the
water main and general information for the proper installation which must
be observed when setting up the device.

The autoclave works both according to the feed water one-way system as
well as the feed water circulatory flow system. In the one-way system, it
uses fresh purified feed water for every sterilization run. In the feed water
circulatory flow system, the autoclave works in a more water-conserving
manner, since the feed water is used for several sterilization runs.
