3.4 DESCRIPTION OF THE INTERNAL WATER TANKS
The sterilizer is equipped with two independent water tanks, one for clean water and one for used water.
The tank on the right side is called "clean water tank" and has to be filled with distilled or demineralized
water required for the sterilization process. It is fitted with a minimum (0.6l) and a maximum (4 l) water lev-
el sensor. The tank can be filled manually through the tank hole on the top of the sterilizer or automatically
with an external water supply system (see § 4.5.1).
Use the quick connector behind the service door (left/blue) to drain the clean water tank for cleaning pur-
poses (see chapter on maintenance).
The tank on the left side is called "used water tank"and contains the used water collected at the end of
each sterilization cycle. It is fitted with a maximum water level sensor (3.5l).
Use the quick connector behind the service door (right/grey) to drain the used water tank (see chapter on
maintenance).
The used water tank can also be drained automatically by connecting a drain tube to the D4 fitting located
at the back of the sterilizer (see §4.5).

4.4 LISAWARE - CONNECTING THE STERILIZER TO A COMPUTER (optional)
Connect up to four Lisa 517/522 sterilizers to a computer or computer network with LisaWare, a computer
software that allows automatic saving of cycle data on a computer and the remote monitoring of the cycle
progress on the computer screen.
Sterilizers can be connected to a computer in two ways, either via a LAN connection using a MOXA ether-
net to serial adaptor, or via a serial connection.
4.4.1 LAN connection
- Your sterilizer features two serial ports in the back: male and female; either port can be used for
data transfer. Switch on the sterilizer, access the setup menu, enter the “RSDATA port selection”
option and select one of the two available serial ports for data transfer (see 6.1.17).
- Scroll to the “Connection to PC/Log” option in the setup menu and select and confirm “yes” (see
6.1.16).
- Please refer to the MOXA configuration sheet for instructions on how to configure your MOXA
NPort 5110 to your network.
- Once you have configured your MOXA, use one of the supplied serial cables (F-F and F-M) to
connect the MOXA to the serial port you selected for data transfer.
- Connect the MOXA to the LAN using an ethernet cable (or if connecting directly to the computer
use a cross-wire cable).
- Use the supplied cable to connect the MOXA to the mains power supply.
For further information, please refer to the “Connection Lisa to LAN or PC” quick-start guide.
W&H does not accept any responsibility should the MOXA interfere with the normal
functioning of your network.
4.4.2 Serial connection
- Your sterilizer features two serial ports in the back: male and female; either port can be used for
data transfer. Switch on the sterilizer, access the setup menu, enter the “RSDATA port selection”
option and select one of the two available serial ports for data transfer (see 6.1.17).
- Scroll to the “Connection to PC/Log” option in the setup menu and select and confirm “yes” (see
6.1.16).
- Use one of the supplied serial cables (F-F and F-M) to connect the sterilizer (from the selected
serial port) directly to the serial port on your computer.
For further information, please refer to the “Connection Lisa to LAN or PC” quick-start guide.
W&H recommend using
the
MOXA NPort 5

10
which has been tested and is compat
i-
ble with the Lisa sterilizer and its software.
The use of other ethernet to serial adaptors removes all responsibility from the manu-
facturer in regards to the correct functioning of the system, the warranty and any
other claims.

11
4.5 AUTOMATIC WATER SUPPLY
Your sterilizer can be connected to an external water supply system and to a continuous drain line. Once
connected, the clean water tank will be automatically filled when empty, and the used water will drain con-
tinuously. Thus, neither manual filling nor draining are required. The water supply system must deliver de-
mineralized water meeting the requirements as listed in Appendix 7.
4.5.1
Connection to the water supply and
to the drain
Remove the two caps installed on the elbow fittings
on the rear side of the sterilizer. Connect the water
supply to the D2 port using a 6mm ext/4 mm int. dia.
tube (not included). The water pressure must be be-
tween 2 and 8.6 bar, max. flow 0.5 l/min.
Connect the drain tube to the D4 port using an 8mm
ext/6mm int. dia. plastic tube: a 3 meter piece of tube
is included in the package.
4.5.2 Demineralizer (optional)
W&H’s Multidem is the water filtration system de-
signed to provide high quality demineralized water
for the sterilization process and for all the other
needs of the dental practice. Contact your dealer for
more information.
4.5.3
Drain tube mounting kit with fittings
(optional)
This kit (see image to the left) allows to connect the
sterilizer drain tube to an existing drain pipe in a fast
and easy way. See Appendix 9.

If the sterilizer is not used for a certain programmable time period, it will automatically switch to “Sleep
mode” to conserve energy (programmable time-out; default 1 hour; see § 6.1.2). Press the “Sleep mode”
icon to get back to the main menu.
5.3 DATE-CLOCK SETTING
To properly save or print cycle data on a memory card or on a printout, the internal sterilizer time and date
has to be set since these parameters are included in the sterilization cycle data report. Please refer to §
6.1.9 for details on how to properly set the sterilizer date and time.

5.4 FILLING THE CLEAN WATER TANK
5.4.1 Manual filling
Use only high quality distilled or demineralized water (see Appendix 7).
•
Slide the tank cover to the right to access the clean
water tank inlet.
•Remove the cap (1) from the tank inlet.
•
Insert the funnel and fill the clean water tank with
app. 3.5 litres of distilled or demineralized water.
•Once the clean water tank is almost full, an audi
ble
tone will sound; stop filling.
•Place the cap (1) to close the tank.
•Slide the tank cover back into its original position.
•Drain the used water tank (see § 5.5).
The water level in the clean water tank decreases during every sterilization cycle, while the water level in
the used water tank is rising. The sterilizer is equipped with an internal water conductivity sensor that con-
stantly monitors the water quality in regards to mineral content. Should the mineral content go beyond a
maximum threshold (conductivity >15µS/cm), a warning message is displayed on the screen.
Every time you fill the clean water tank, drain the used water tank (see § 5.5).
5.4.2 Automated water supply (optional)
If an automated water supply system is connected to the sterilizer (see §
4.5), the clean water tank automatically fills
once the water level drops below the minimum level.
An internal water conductivity sensor constantly monitors the water quality in
regards to mineral content. Should the mineral content go beyond a maxi-
mum threshold (>15µS/cm conductivity as defined by the European Norm
EN 13060), a warning message is displayed on the screen (see screenshot
to the left).
Water of low quality
with high mineral contents
can impair the sterilization process
and seriously damage the internal components of the sterilizer. Damages caused by
water of poor quality will not be covered by the manufacturer’s warranty. Once the non
conform water message is displayed, check the water source (refer to the water supply
system user manual; replace resin cartridges etc.). In case distilled or demineralized
water is purchased, switch to a brand of better quality.

5.5 DRAINING THE USED WATER TANK
When the waste water in the used water tank reaches the maximum level, the
following message is displayed:
The message will disappear once the used water tank got drained. Keep
draining the tank until it is completely empty.
5.5.1 Manual draining
•Open the service door at the front of the sterilizer.
•Insert the drain tube into the quick connector for the
used water (grey connector / right).
•Drain the used water tank until it is completely empty.
•Press the push-button on top of the quick connector to
dislodge the drain tube.
Never reuse water from the used water tank!
5.5.2 Continuous draining
If the permanent drain tube for automated draining of the used water is mounted, the used water tank gets
drained automatically. For more information see § 4.5.
If the sterilizer is not used for more than 3 days, both water tanks should be completely
drained in order to avoid algae growth or any other deposits.
5.6 MEMORY CARD
5.6.1 Inserting / removing the memory card
Lisa 517/522 sterilizers are equipped with a digital cycle data recording
system. Cycle data are written and saved on removable/rewritable memo-
ry cards.
- Insert the memory card into the dedicated slot behind the service door
until it clicks into its final position. Ensure that the flat corner of the
card points to the top/right (see image to the right).
- Periodically remove the memory card to download cycle data to a
computer.
- To remove the memory card, slighty push it in and pull it out gently.
For further instructions on the use of the memory card, see §12.
