FAILURE O FOLLOW INS RUC IONS AND/OR

IMPROPER USE MAY RESUL IN SCALDING,

BODILY INJURIES OR EXPLOSION.

When using the pressure steam sterilizer, basic

safety precautions should always be followed:

1. Read and understand the instruction manual

before operating unit for the first time.

2. Unit will become hot during use. Do not touch

hot surfaces. Always use caution when handling

unit when it is hot.

3. Closely supervise children if the sterilizer is

used near children.

4. Extreme caution must be used when moving

the sterilizer containing hot liquids.

5. Do not use the sterilizer for other than its

intended use..

6. Whenever possible only use distilled or

deionized water in sterilizer.

7. Always check the pressure release devices for

clogs before using your sterilizer.

8. his and every steam sterilizer operates under

pressure. Improper use may result in scalding

injury. Make certain to read operating instruc-

tions before first use and that the unit must be

properly closed before operating to prevent

possible injury.

9. Before each use make sure that your gauge

reads zero.

10. NEVER loosen wing nuts until the steam

pressure gauge reaches zero and have allowed

remaining pressure to escape by opening the

control valve in the vertical “open” position.

11. NEVER open the sterilizer until the unit has

cooled and the internal pressure reads zero on

the steam pressure gauge.

12. NEVER use this sterilizer for cooking or

processing food.

13. NEVER run the unit without water. Doing so

will damage the heating element.

14. NEVER move your sterilizer while it is

pressurized.

15. Be sure to keep metal-to-metal seal lubri-

cated.

16. Do not subject your sterilizer to sudden

extreme temperature changes, as this may cause

expansion or contraction of the metal which can

damage any aluminum device. Do not move

sterilizer from a cold storage area directly onto a

hot flame or element. Do not add cold water to

a sterilizer which has been boiled dry and

remains hot. Do not cool sterilizer by pouring

cold water into or on the unit.

17. As in all clinical/laboratory settings, wear

safety glasses when attending to your sterilizer.

Please Note:

This unit has been steam pressure tested at the

factory and approved. The slight discoloration on

the inside of the unit is caused by the hot steam

test.

CLEANING

When you are done using your sterilizer, you

need to empty the water from the unit, rinse

thoroughly and dry completely. This procedure

needs to be done daily. Do not leave water in the

unit overnight. Rinse thoroughly between water

changes. Store your sterilizer in a dry area. On

your next use, fill the sterilizer with clean distilled

water. Distilled water is the recommended water.

If distilled water is not available, then you may

use your local water. If your local water supply

contains lime or high levels of minerals, the unit

will require periodic cleaning to remove and

prevent the buildup of deposits.

Units should be cleaned whenever there is a

buildup of lime or mineral deposits. After many

cycles, a white deposit may begin to form on the

bottom of the sterilizer. We recommend cleaning

with a lime remover. Manufacturers of coffee

makers have cleaning solutions which may be

used. There are also solutions available at your

local hardware and drug stores that can be used

to clean aluminum. Follow the manufacturer's

instructions and make up a solution of the

cleaner, filling your sterilizer above the standard

operating level. Let the sterilizer stand a few

minutes then rinse thoroughly. You may have to

repeat this procedure a few times to fully remove

the lime and mineral deposits from your sterilizer.

Never turn the sterilizer "on" when filled

with a cleaning solution.

You may also use standard white vinegar to clean

your sterilizer. Fill your sterilizer above the

standard operating level with vinegar and let it

stand a few minutes then rinse thoroughly. You

may have to repeat this procedure a few times to

fully remove the lime and mineral deposits from

your sterilizer.

OPERATION

1. Place sterilizer on a stable, heat tolerant

sur ace with access to appropriate electrical

power.

2. Remove the cover o the sterilizer by turning

the wing nuts in a counter-clockwise motion.

Always undo two opposite wing nuts at a time.

Turn cover and remove cover rom bottom. Next

remove inner container and inner container rack

rom sterilizer bottom (See Fig. A).

3. LUBRICATE METAL-TO-METAL SEAL Apply

lubrication to the entire beveled edge o the

bottom (See Fig. 1). We recommend using a high

temperature lubricant like high vacuum grease;

petroleum jelly may also be used as a substitute.

Only a thin ilm o lubrication is needed to

lubricate the metal-to-metal seal.

4. Place distilled or deionized water up to the

water line machined into the bottom o the

sterilizer. Water must be directly over the heating

element and NOT inside the inner container.

Next, place the inner container rack inside the

inner container with the lip side down (See Fig.

A). The purpose o the inner container rack is to

provide an air space at the bottom o the inner

container so that air may be evacuated and steam

is allowed to circulate reely throughout the entire

chamber.

5. With the inner container and inner container

rack out o the sterilizer place articles to be

sterilized inside the inner container on top o the

inner container rack. You may wish to place the

articles to be sterilized inside plastic bags speci -

ically designed or use inside steam sterilizers.

Arrange items so that steam may circulate reely

inside the chamber during the sterilization cycle.

Also, you can place a towel or cloth on top o the

items inside the container to absorb any moisture

that may drip down rom the cover onto the

items.

6. Check to see i your water level inside the

sterilizer is correct and then place loaded inner

container inside the sterilizer.

7. VERY IMPORTANT – make sure that the air

exhaust channel (located on the inside o the

inner container) is positioned on the right side o

the sterilizer. This is necessary so that when the

cover is placed on the unit you can guide the air

exhaust tube into the air exhaust tube channel

(See Fig. A).

8. Place the cover o the sterilizer making sure

that that index alignment arrow on the cover

aligns with the index line arrow on the side o the

bottom; AND that the air exhaust tube is inserted

into the air exhaust tube channel on the inner

container. With the cover aligned with the bottom

and the air exhaust tube inside the air exhaust

channel you may tighten the wing nuts on the

cover. Be sure to tighten wing nuts evenly,

always tightening down two opposite wing nuts

at one time. As you are tightening the wing nuts

be sure to maintain an even gap between the

cover and the bottom. Loosen or tighten the

wing nuts accordingly to maintain an even gap.

This will draw the cover down evenly and ensure

a proper seal. NEVER USE A WRENCH OR ANY

MECHANICAL DEVICE TO TIGHTEN WING

NUTS. NEVER HAMER OR STRIKE THE WING

NUTS OR COVER WHILE OPENING OR

CLOSING UNIT.

9. Plug power supply cord into the proper outlet

120V or 240V (re er to dial plate on ront o the

control box and note in the upper le t hand corner

i your unit is 120V or 240V). Next, turn the

on/o toggle switch to “on” position, the red pilot

light should be illuminated indicating that

electrical current is working and the heating

element is now operating. To increase heat, turn

the heat control knob in a clockwise direction; to

reduce heat, turn knob in a counter-clockwise

direction. Always maintain a close watch on the

pressure gauge and adjust heat accordingly.

10. OPEN CONTROL VALVE (See Fig. 2) by

moving the lever into the upright position. Steam

generated by the sterilizer will be drawn rom the

bottom o the unit up through the air exhaust tube

and out the control valve. STEAM MUST

CONTINUOUSLY ESCAPE FROM THE CONTROL

VALVE FOR AT LEAST 5 MINUTES. Once this

has occurred, CLOSE THE VALVE AND LET

PRESSURE BUILD UNTIL THE GAUGE READS IN

THE “GREEN” STERILIZATION ZONE, which is

between 17 to 21 PSI or 121°C/250°F to

127°C/259°F. Once you have completed the

above, OPEN THE CONTROL VALVE A SECOND

TIME AND VENT THE CHAMBER FOR AN

ADDITIONAL 3 TO 5 MINUTES. Please Note that

the greatest reason or a sterilization ailure is

trapped air in the chamber o the sterilizer.

Trapped air may prevent the steam rom perme-

ating the contents to be sterilized.

11. Once the chamber is properly vented, close the

65k Control Value, then the sterilization cycle may

begin. Start timing the sterilization cycle when the

gauge needle is in the green sterilization zone on the

ace o the gauge between 17-21 PSI. We recommend

running a sterilization cycle o not less than 35 minutes

at a temperature o no less 121°C/250°F. Your

sterilizer is equipped with a mechanical bell

timer located on the left side of the control unit.

This mechanical timer is not connected to any

electrical circuit and will not turn the unit on or

off. ALWAYS MONITOR THE GAUGE DURING

THE CYCLE MAKING SURE THAT THE

PRESSURE REMAINS IN THE GREEN STERILI-

ZATION ZONE ON THE FACE OF THE GAUGE.

We highly recommend that you use steam

integrator strips in your sterilizer to ensure that

you have run a successful sterilization cycle.

12. At the end of the sterilization cycle, turn the

on/off toggle switch to the “off” position and

open the control valve into the open position

(See Fig. 2) to allow the steam to escape. The

valve will be hot after the cycle, to avoid injury

always use heat resistant gloves to open the

valve. Continue monitoring the gauge until it

reaches 0 PSI and no sound of escaping steam

can be heard coming through the control valve.

NEVER ATTEMPT TO OPEN THE STERILIZER

UNTIL THE GAUGE READS ZERO.

13. With the pressure gauge reading 0 PSI

loosen the wing nuts evenly by turning two

opposite wing nuts counter clockwise. The

wing nuts may still be hot, we recommend

wearing heat resistant gloves to avoid potential

burns. With the wing nuts removed, remove the

cover by turning it counter clockwise.

Remember when removing the cover always tilt

and angle the cover away from yourself or other

people to prevent injury from any remaining

steam in the chamber. PLEASE NOTE, when the

sterilizer is allowed to cool with the cover

tightened to the bottom this increases the chance

that the cover may become stuck to the bottom.

14. With the cover removed the inner container

may now be removed. In the event that the inner

container remains hot, we recommend using

heat resistant gloves to handle the inner

container. If the sterilizer is not going to be

immediately used again, before storing the unit

all water should be emptied from the unit and

the inside must be thoroughly dried. We

recommend pouring the water out of the unit

while it is still warm and leaving the cover off to

let the inside of the chamber dry. The residual

heat will help dry the unit. For storage, place

the cover on the unit and loosely attach the wing

nuts. We recommend leaving the control valve

open (See Fig. 2) to allow air to circulate

through your sterilizer.

15. We have included a sterilization log sheet

that we highly recommend using as best

practice. The sheet will allow the operator to

keep a record of all of the sterilization cycles.

The operator should diligently fill out and keep

the record safe. Additional sheets can be

downloaded from our website.

MAINTENANCE

1. Metal-to-Metal seal (See Fig. 1). We

recommend periodically checking the metal-to-

metal seal and lubricating as needed. It is

extremely important to keep the seal lubricated

as failure to do so could cause the cover to stick

potentially making it very difficult to remove the

cover.

2. PRESSURE GAUGE, PART NO. 72S. (See Fig.

4) Do not immerse your pressure gauge in water

when cleaning the unit. The gauge does not

require any maintenance other than periodically

making sure that the opening of the gauge on

the underside of the cover is open and free of

any foreign matter. DO NOT USE YOUR UNIT IF

THE GAUGE FACE

CRACKS, FILLS WITH

STEAM OR DOES NOT

RETURN TO ZERO.

3. CONTROL VALVE,

PART NO. 65K (See

Fig. 2 & 3). To ensure

long life and proper

operation it is

important to periodi-

cally clean the control valve thoroughly in hot

soapy water. If distilled water is not used, calci-

fication could build up and cause the valve to

leak. To clean any built up calcification, put the

lever in the open position and soak the valve in

vinegar. Be sure to clean the control valve in hot

soapy water after soaking in vinegar.

In the event that you are unable to

properly remove any foreign material in your

control valve, we recommend that the control

valve be discarded and replaced with a new

control valve.

4. AIR EXHAUST TUBE, PART NO. 2155 (See

Fig. 5). It is essential that the air exhaust tube

be frequently checked to make sure that air

passes freely through it. We recommend that

you blow air through the exhaust tube at least

once a month to make certain that it is not

plugged with any foreign material. Simply

remove the air exhaust tube from the control

valve on the bottom of the sterilizer cover. The

tube may be cleaned using a small diameter wire

running through the length of the tube several

times. If you notice any difficulty cleaning the air

exhaust tube or notice any corrosion on the

inside of the passage , we recommend that you

discard the tube and replace it with a new one.

5. EXCESS PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE, PART NO.

2050CS (See Fig. 6). Your sterilizer is equipped

with a new type of excess pressure relief valve. It

is designed for longer,

maintenance free

service; however, we

recommend that the

valve be replaced every

three years in normal

service. The valve is

designed to be release

pressure at 26 PSI. This

valve is equipped with a

deflector cap that will

direct any steam

released in a downward

direction. It is possible

to manually release steam with the valve by

simply grasping the deflector cap and pulling

upwards slightly. The deflector cap will be hot so

always wear heat resistant gloves when manually

venting the unit with the excess pressure relief

valve. Once the deflector cap is released, the

valve will automatically seal back into place

thereby preventing any additional pressure from

escaping.

6. OVERPRESSURE PLUG, PART NO. 1010 (See

Fig. 7). Your sterilizer is also equipped with an

overpressure plug which acts as an additional

safety device. The plug is designed to automati-

cally release pressure should pressure reach

greater than 30 PSI. The plug is made from

silicone and is found on the cover located

directly in front of the Excess Pressure Relief

Valve. For best performance of the plug and safe

operating of your sterilizer, we recommend that

you replace your plug every six months. The

overpressure plug and opening should be

checked at least once per month. The

overpressure plug may be removed using your

fingers (NEVER REMOVE THE PLUG WHEN THE

STERILIZER IS HOT). Once the plug is removed

it is important to clean the opening in the cover

where the plug goes to keep it clear of any

foreign matter, residue or grease buildup that

may occur. Next clean the opening with hot

soapy water. After, inspect your plug and make

certain that it is in good condition free of cracks,

or becomes too hard or deformed. After cleaning

reinsert the overpressure plug by pushing the

round top side into the opening from the

underside of the cover (See Fig. 7).

7. OPTIONAL SUPPORT BASE, PART NO. 2180,

(See above photo). This support base is an

accessory that elevates the sterilizer bottom

approximately 1⅜” above the work surface upon

which the unit is operated. The support will

eliminate any potential heat damage to the work

surface as it permits free circulation of air.

How Part No. 2050CS

Works

Closed

Resilient seal design prevents leakage.

Sealing efficiency increases with

increased pressure up to cracking

pressure. Metal-to-metal seat on low

pressure side supports spring load,

prevents sticking.

Open

When system pressure overcomes spring

force, poppet opens, momentarily

exposing variable orifice between poppet

and body to pass increasing flow with

minimum pressure rise without

blowdown.

esealing

Resilient seal automatically establishes

line of contact with spherical seat. Seal

provides dead tight reseal very close to

cracking pressure.

Operating characteristics of the No.

2050CS excess pressure relief valve are

A. Zero leakage to 95-98% of cracking

pressure.

B. Increased sealing efficiency as

pressure increases. Resilient "Q" ring

seal is forced against metal seat as

pressure increases up to set cracking

pressure.

C. Cracking pressure accuracy. Valves

are preset to required cracking

pressure of 26 PSI.

Fig. 6

Part No. 2050CS

Excess Pressure

Relief Valve

Deflector Cap

Steam is an ideal sterilizing agent because it kills

microbes quickly. A large volume of steam

condenses to a very small amount of water and

more steam is drawn to replace it. This causes

excellent penetration of fabrics, papers and

certain plastics.

It is essential that this and any steam sterilizer be

regularly checked for proper steam penetration

throughout the entire chamber of the sterilizer.

We recommend using steam sterilization

indicator strips that may be purchased at many

medical supply retailers. Place the indicator strip

in every load to ensure that adequate steam

penetration is present in the load thereby

assuring a successful sterilization cycle. A melt

indicator in a small glass vial is another

acceptable way to determine temperature and

steam penetration during the cycle. For more

information on steam sterilization we recommend

going to the Center for Disease Control

http //www.cdc.gov/.

P ESSU E GAUGE

ACCU ACY

The gauges are rated as having an accuracy of

3%-2%-3%. This designates plus or minus 3%

of the full span for the first and last quarter of the

dial and 2% for the middle of the dial.

T OUBLE SHOOTING

Question: I am having trouble passing a spore

test, what am I doing wrong?

Answer: Most likely you are not properly venting

all the air out of the chamber before you start timing

your cycle. Always vent the chamber using the Part

65K Control Valve as outlined in No. 10 of the

operating instructions.
