Connecting the feed water supply (installation examples)
The following pages provide examples for the recommended installation types for the feed water supply. The connection
of a different water treatment unit with the same water quality is possible after consultation with MELAG.
PLEASE NOTE
For detailed information on the cold water connection of the water treatment unit, see the user manual
of the unit.
Example 1: Using the internal water storage container
The steam sterilizer is supplied with feed water directly from the internal storage tank via a hose. Thus, apart from the
mains connection, no additional water connection is necessary. A float switch integrated in the device notifies the
absence of feed water. Programs can only be started after feed water has been filled. The used feed water (wastewater)
is collected in the wastewater chamber of the internal storage tank and is to be emptied manually at a later point. A float
switch in the wastewater chamber notifies a full wastewater chamber.

Example 2: Using the MELAdem 40 ion exchanger
The most simple installation is the direct connection of the ion exchanger to the steam sterilizer feed water inflow; this
generates demineralised water from normal tap water. The MELAjet spray gun can be installed as an option.
NOTICE
When connecting an external feed water supply it is necessary to connect an external wastewater
outflow as well.
There is a risk that hot wastewater might run through the emergency overflow.
To convert to the feed water supply from a water treatment unit, make the following preparations:
1. Empty both chambers of the internal storage tank.
2. Replace the feed water inflow fitting (5) located on the steam sterilizer with the hollow screw with feed water inflow
fitting for hose Ø6x1 (art. no.ME25655) because of the different hose diameter. Both parts are included in the water
connection set (art. no. ME09034). When using a MELAjet spray pistol use the swivel screw connection (art. no.
ME53465).
3. Replace both Cu seals (art. no. ME42360, included in the scope of delivery) for the hollow screw.
In this example, the used feed water (wastewater) is fed directly via the pressure drain into the siphon of the domestic
water network. Use the outlet hose (PTFE hose, Ø8/6mm, art. no. ME39180). Alternatively, the wastewater can also be
directed into the siphon via the one-way drain, see Example 3: Using the MELAdem 47 reverse osmosis unit
[}Page15].
When connecting the water treatment unit directly to the domestic water network, MELAG recommends the additional
installation of the leakage water detector (water stop) with shut-off valve and probe.

Example 3: Using the MELAdem 47 reverse osmosis unit
The reverse osmosis unit is connected directly to the feed water inflow of the steam sterilizer and uses normal tap water
to generate demineralised water.
NOTICE
When connecting an external feed water supply it is necessary to connect an external wastewater
outflow as well.
There is a risk that hot wastewater might run through the emergency overflow.
To convert to the feed water supply from a water treatment unit, make the following preparations:
1. Empty both chambers of the internal storage tank.
2. Replace the feed water inflow fitting located on the steam sterilizer with the banjo bolt with feed water inflow fitting
for hose Ø6x1 (art. no. ME25655) because of the different hose diameter. Both parts are included in the water
connection set (art. no. ME09034). When using a MELAjet spray pistol use the swivel screw connection (art. no.
ME53465).
3. Replace both Cu seals (art. no. ME42360, included in the scope of delivery) for the hollow screw.
In this example, the used feed water (wastewater) is fed via the one-way outlet drain into the siphon of the domestic
water network. To do this, connect the outlet hose and mount it to the double-chamber siphon via the double hose
nozzle.
When connecting the water treatment unit directly to the domestic water network, MELAG recommends the additional
installation of the leakage water detector (water stop) with shut-off valve and probe.

Connection to the wastewater
Method 1: Via the one-way drain
If you connect the one-way overflow hose of the device to the siphon of the domestic water supply, you need a drain
hose with a length of 2m (art. no.ME36585, not included in the scope of delivery).
Method 2: Via the pressure release
To connect the device directly to the wastewater, i.e. from the pressure outlet directly into the siphon of the domestic
water supply, you need a drain hose with a length of 1m (art. no. ME39180, not included in the scope of delivery).
Setting up the steam sterilizer
For a fault-free operation, the steam sterilizer must be set up horizontally by using a water level located close to the
sterilization-chamber flange. Then the front feet of the unit must be unscrewed by about five rotations in order to give the
steam sterilizer a slight backwards tilt.

5 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What does the log name mean?
Complete encoding of both the serial number and the total batch number is performed in the 8 digit log name. Manually
re-named files are always easy to identify but not to be recommended. A log name is never assigned twice. The log
name achieves good log sortability.
Knowledge of the encoding within the name of the log file is not necessary, as a double-click on the file reveals the
content and thus serial number and total batch number immediately. This requires assignment of a log file to a text
editor.

Date and time of the log files
The date and time of the log files in Windows explorer are identical with the time of the program start, provided of course
that the files were saved on the corresponding medium via immediate output. The information is lost upon subsequent
collected issue on a medium or e-mail dispatch.
How to format a CF card on the computer correctly?
The CF card should only be formatted on the device. In exceptional circumstances, this can be performed on the
computer. The CF card used may have a max. memory space of 4GB and must be formatted with the file system FAT16
or FAT32. CF cards from which a software update is to be performed may only be formatted in a FAT16 file system.
The device can only file or read data on CF cards formatted in this way. CF cards supplied by MELAG fulfil these
requirements and have already been formatted.
