7. Check and verify that the ambient temperature range is 41˚F - 104˚F
(5˚C - 40˚C), it is preferable not to exceed 86˚F (30˚C).
8. Check and verify that the ambient relative humidity does not exceed
85%.
3.4 Connections to Utility Supplies
1. Check and verify that the power supply is a 1 phase, 230Vac ±5%,
50/60Hz (as appropriate), 15A supply.
2. Check and verify that the autoclave is connected to separate power
source to avoid flickers of light or sensitive devices.
3. Check and verify grounding of the autoclave.
4. Check and verify that the electrical net is protected with a current
leakage safety relay.
3.5 Final adjustments
At the time of installation, befo re the autoclave can be okayed for
daily operation the service technician needs to perform the follow ing
preliminary checks:
a. Integrity Check

7.2 Parameters
This section describes the parameters, how they affect the process and
the way to change them.
Listed bellow are all the available parameters.
Each section describes the parameter, the minimum and maximum
allowed values and the changing resolution. Also included are the pre-
set values of the parameters for each cycle (default value).
NOTE:
If a parameter is modified, the only way to return to the original
value is to manually reenter it.
A global parameter is a parameter that by changing its value in
one program, it is changed in all the other programs to receive the
same value.
To change a non-global value, i.e. specific parameter for each
program, choose first the required sterilization program in the
main screen of the autoclave and then enter the MENU and the
sub-directory PARAMETERS.

7.2.7 ATMPressure – ambient pressure
This parameter tells the unit the atmospheric pressure of the
location in which the autoclave is installed. The pressure entered
must be with an accuracy of 5% of the actual atmospheric
pressure for that location. It is a global parameter that means that
you only need to enter this parameter once in anyone cycle and
all cycles will be updated.
This value can easily be calculated by knowing the altitude of
your location. The atmospheric pressure at Sea Level is 100 kPa
For every 100 meter above sea level, the atmospheric pressure
drops 1 kPa.
For every 100 meter below sea level, the atmospheric
pressure increases 1 kPa.
Changes in pressure do to weather will not affect the accuracy of
this unit.

7.2.31 Heat Time Err - maximum time of the heating stage
This parameter defines the maximum time of the heating stage
until the beginning of the sterilization stage. If the heating
continues beyond this limit "ERROR 15" message will be
displayed and the cycle will fail.
7.2.33 WaterTimeErr - maximum generator water filling time.
This parameter defines the maximum time for filling water in the
generator. If, before a cycle, the water pump has operated as
long as defined by this parameter and the water level electrode
did not sense water, "ERROR 20" will be displayed and a cycle
cannot be started. If this will be during a cycle – the cycle will
fail with "low temp" or "low pres".
7.2.34 Sleep Power - time until the autoclave turns into "sleep
