CAUTION indicates the potential for damage to equipment.

1. The operator should carefully read this manual, and should have a good working knowledge and
experience in sterilization. The sterilizer must be used according to the procedures in this
manual. If the sterilizer is used in a manner that is not specified by the manufacturer, the
protection system of the sterilizer may be impaired, that results in a human injury and
damage.

2. Do not sterilize the toxic materials, and also items that may deteriorate, discolor, deform,
explosive, malfunctioned when exposed to high pressure and temperature steam.

3. The sterilizer must put to earth perfectly for avoiding possible electrical shock.

4. The area where the sterilizer would be installed should be ventilated at least ten times an hour.

5. When sterilizing liquids, please observe the following:


1) Use air-permeable(porous) closures. Do not use a screw cap or rubber stopper.
2) Use only borosilicate glass bottles (typeⅠ). Do not use ordinary glass bottles or containers that
are not designed for sterilization purposes.
3) Avoid opening the door immediately after completing the sterilization cycles. Instead, slightly open
the door and let it cool for about ten minutes.
4) Do not shake or move the hot bottle, as doing so may lead it to burst.
5) Small containers are preferable for sterilizing liquid rather than a large container or the different
sized containers.
6. Only technically qualified and experienced personnel should inspect, adjust, and repair the
sterilizer:

1) Always wear protective gloves when operating the sterilizer.


2) Disconnect the power plug and let the sterilizer cool down before conducting inspection and
maintenance.
3) Use only those spare parts designated by the manufacturer.

1. GENERAL INFORMATION

1.1 Features
1) Theses sterilizers, which are a practical medium sized chamber between the large and small
sized sterilizers and are very effective to load the volumed loads, use the saturated vapor as
sterilant supplied from the built-in steam generator or the external steam supply system. The
chamber with jacket is the most sound structurally and the door is sealed firmly by the
locking system with the radial type levers.

2) 4 kinds of basic cycle program are embedded in the sterilizer, therefore the operator can
select a proper cycle program conveniently for sterilizing according to the material of the
items to be sterilized(textile, metal device or instruments, liquid contained in the bottle), the
packaging type(wrapped or unwrapped) and air removal method(pre-vacuum or gravity).

3) Cycle progressing is fully automated by a built-in microprocessor and if any trouble is


occurred during operating, its error code is displayed on the digital LED display with an
audible alarm and the cycle in progress is aborted after venting the chamber automatically for
safety.

4) The doors are not opened without power supplying and the selected cycle is not started
unless the door has been locked. The door locking system is designed to seal the chamber
simply by the radial type levers. To open the doors safely under pressure in the chamber, turn
the door handle counter clockwise, then the radial levers are released and the vapor is leaked
through the gap between the chamber edge and door. The strong open/close mechanism and
the door plate cover for blocking heat can protect the operators from a burn during sterilizing.
In case the chamber pressure exceeds in the set value, the safety valve exhausts the vapor in
the chamber, then the chamber pressure is decreased.

5) The built-in panel printer prints out the cycle performance recorder after cycle completion for
analyzing the results of sterilization and for keeping it as the evidence of sterility afterward.

1) Select the basic cycle program No.4(121oC/40min). Load the sterilization chamber and lock
the door, the [LOCK] indicator lamp is lit. The [READY] indicator lamp is lit when the jacket
has been reached to the set temperature.

CAUTION
Use only the liquid cycle program(No.4) and do not use wrapped or unwrapped cycle
program(No.1~3) for liquid load.

NOTE
If you select the LIQUID cycle program, the drying phase cannot be set.

Fig. 3-9. Loading of Liquid loads

WARNING
1. The liquid should not exceed in 70% of the container capacity.
2. Leave the container open or use air vent lid. Don't use screw type or rubber lids.
3. Only borosilicate glass (Type I) should be used. Do not use ordinary glass container
which is not suitable for the sterilization process.
4. Pay attention to handling the hot glass. Moving the container filled with boiling liquids
may lead to burst.

- 24 -
CAUTION
1. Sterilization of chloride solution must cause corrosion in the camber.
2. Sterilization time depends on the container capacity. Bigger containers require longer
sterilization time(see Table 3-4. Recommended Exposure Time).
3. Putting the bottles with same capacity in the chamber is advantageous to a good
result of sterilization.

2) Pressing <START/STOP> button in succession, the sterilization cycle is started. The cycle is
automatically proceeded in the order of Condition, Sterilization, Cooling, and Completion as
follows:

CAUTION
If you want to change the programmed values or open the door during the sterilization,
you should stop the cycle first by pressing <START/STOP> key. Open door after confirm
the chamber has exhausted to atmospheric pressure.

3) Conditioning
The condition precess is started with influx of saturated steam into the chamber from jacket.
[TEMP.] LED displays the actual temperature in the chamber and [TIME] LED displays the
remaining time. The [CONDI.] indicator lamp is blinking.

NOTE
In case the heating time exceeds 120 minutes for some reason, the alarm [Err 6] will sound
and the cycle will stop. If the chamber is cooled, the cause of exceeding preheating time shall
be clarified, and repair and maintenance shall be made.

4) Sterilizing
When the chamber is reached to the set temperature, it proceeds to the sterilization phase.
The [STER.] indicator lamp is blinking and the [TEMP.] LED displays the set temperature.
As the sterilization begins, the [TIME] LED displays the remainder time of the sterilization in
one minute decrements.

NOTE
In case the sterilization temperature deviation is out of the set range, the cycle is stopped
automatically and chamber is vented sounding alarm [Err 4]. Pressing the <START/STOP> key,
the audible signal is stopped and the sterilizer returns to the initial state.

NOTE
If the heater is overheated during the heating or sterilization phase, there will occur an alarm
(Err 2). The sterilizer will stop its operation and begin to ventilate. If you press the
<START/STOP> key, the audible signal will stop. When the chamber has been cooled, press the
reset button (at rear side of HS-4085G and in front side of machine room of HS-5020G) of
the overheat protector manually, the control panel will return to the original state. Problems
should be checked and repaired.

- 25 -
5) Cooling
When the sterilize phase is finished, the cycle proceeds to the cooling phase substituted for
the venting. In this phase, the vent valve does not work and a little amount of steam is
discharged slowly through the trap, while most of the remaining steam is being condensed.
This is the most safe method for cooling the liquid to the ambient temperature.

NOTE
During the cooling phase of liquid cycle, it does not exhaust the steam and water to outside,
but slowly cools down the steam in the chamber and condense it, thus dropping the pressure
and temperature. In this manner, you can protect the hot bottles from being burst or overflown
during the venting.

6) Completion
When the cooling phase has been finished, the [COMP.] indicator lamp is lit. The [TEMP.]
LED displays the actual temperature of chamber, [TIME] LED displays 「End」 and the
completion signal buzzes for 30 seconds at an interval of 0.1 second. The panel printer print
out the cycle performance record. If you open the door or press the <START/STOP> key, the
control panel will return to the original state.

NOTE
Do not full open the door suddenly after completion of cycle. Leave the door 20~30 mm open
and wait for about 10 minutes for cooling. Then you may take out the sterilized loads safely.

second after cycle has been completed.

3) Warning sound : Warning signal is sounded at an interval of 0.5 second until <Silence>
button is pressed in case of occurring an error during operating the sterilizer.

3.6 Error Code


If an error has been occurred during operating the sterilizer, the error code and message are
displayed on the control panel accompanying an audible alarm by the built-in self-diagnosis
program. The error codes and its causes are as follows,

- 27 -
CODE CAUSE
Err 1 Malfunction of jacket temperature sensor.
Err 2 Steam generator overheated during operation.
Err 3 Door latch unlocked during cycle.
Err 4 Deviation of sterilization temperature is out of the set range.
Err 5 Malfunction of chamber temperature sensor.
Err 6 Excess of preheating time.
Err 7 Stop supplying water

3.7 Safety Equipments

1) Safety Valve (RV)


If the actual pressure in the jacket exceeds the set value of safety valve, the safety valve is
opened automatically and the over pressure is released safely.

2) Program for Sensing the Deviation of Sterilizing Temperature


If the actual sterilization temperature is out of the set range, the cycle is aborted
automatically and sounds audible alarm signal, "Err 4" code is displayed on the touch screen
by this program.

3) Temperature Sensing and Control System by Temperature Sensor for Chamber (TT1)
and Jacket (TT2)
This system senses the actual temperature in the chamber and jacket in real time by a
built-in sensor which has the sensing range of 0.0~150.0℃, and also has a temperature limit
program which controls the sterilization temperature within the range of 0.0~135.0℃.
Transducer sends the temperature data to the controller and displays it on the touch screen
by digital type.

4) Main Circuit Breaker (CB1)


The circuit breaker cuts the power off to protect the control circuits in case of inflow over
current to the controller due to short circuit, insulation breakdown of the electrical
components or the other caution.

5) 2nd Circuit Breaker (F1, F2)


If over current is flown into the power input terminal, heat is generated and the contact point
of auto fuse is opened automatically and then power supplying is cutoff immediately,
therefore it is a second circuit breaker for protecting the control circuit of sterilizer. Push the
buttons sprang out to the original position once, the contact point is connected and power is
recovered. The standard product with the capacity specified in the wiring diagram should be
used for replacing it.

3.9 Technique of Steam Sterilization


The information in this section is a guidance of the steam sterilization technique for the most
common items and materials to be sterilized with steam. Prior to sterilization, all materials and
items to be sterilized must be thoroughly cleaned. After sterilization, most loads should be
stored for a certain period time but it must be kept within 30 days even though it's different
according to wrapping materials. It had better to contact with the manufacturer to get the
characteristic informations for the items or materials which were not specified in this section.

- 29 -
1) Principle of Steam Sterilization
⑴ Steam with pressure is the simplest and most reliable method for sterilizing medical items.
It can be produced inexpensively and penetrates into the loads rapidly to heat them and
applied effectively, therefore applying range of the pressured steam is very wide. Typical
steam sterilization temperature is 121℃ and 134℃ and effective steam sterilization requires
following points:

① Presence of saturated steam

② Keeping proper temperature

③ Proper exposure time

⑵ Steam sterilization relies on steam condensing on the loads to be sterilized. When steam
condenses, moisture and heat are transferred to the surface of load. The presence of
saturated steam assures the transference of this heat and moisture.

⑶ Air removal from the loads and chamber is to keep the saturated steam in the chamber
and to optimize the performance of sterilization. Air hinders to penetrate steam into the
loads and protects microorganisms from the moisture in the steam. Sterilizers are equipped
with automatic air exhaust valve for this purpose and it keeps open until air is removed
from the chamber. Once air is removed, the valve is closed to increase the pressure for
reaching up to the set sterilization temperature.

⑷ The importance of moisture and saturated steam is illustrated by the fact that steam
sterilization is accomplished within a few minutes at 134℃, but it's required several hours
at the same temperature if there exists a little or no moisture like the dry-heat sterilization.
The presence of saturated steam can be confirmed by comparing and contrasting the
chamber temperature and pressure after reached up to set temperature during the
sterilization phase, This means that the temperature and pressure keeps a constant relation
if the steam is in saturate state.

⑸ Temperature and pressure have to be controled in each cycle to secure a perfect


sterilization condition. The enough water recommended need in the chamber and the air
vent function have to be performed in perfect to fill up the saturated steam in the chamber
by full air removal. It is very important for the loads to be exposed for enough long time
with selection of proper sterilization time and temperature, the recommended time and
temperature table is the results of a long time experiment, therefore it had better to follow
as possible except a special case.

⑹ Only a proper pouch or cloth for sterilization must be applied in case of wrapping the
loads, the fabric and instrument packs should be loaded by stand on the edge for easy air
removal and dry and each loads should be disposed on the tray in capable of exposing to
the steam evenly. When processing mixed loads combining fabrics and hard goods, place
the hard goods on the lower tray or rack. This prevents wetting of muslin packs from
condensate dripping from hard goods load. Remove any caps from and invert empty jars,
canisters and all other nonporous containers to facilitate sterilization and drying.

⑺ It has to check the sterilization performance at least once a week for checking all of the

- 30 -
process by applying the biological and chemical indicators.

2) Cleaning of Loads
⑴ Instruments: Cleaning the instruments immediately after use them is the most effective,
disassemble them as possible as maximum and unlock of all the locked parts and then
wash with water, every dirt debris should be removed completely at this time. Remove the
moisture by washing out cleanly with warm water and an detergent firstly and apply the
water-soluble lubricants designed for instrument sterilization on it nextly.

⑵ Lumens: Catheter, syringe needle and tubes should be washed cleanly and remove
moisture, then soak with distilled water. Pack them with moisture remained in the tube and
sterilize immediately(at least within 24 hours) for achieving effective sterilization and
prevention of pyrogen generation.

⑶ Textiles: Wash out cleanly immediately after use and dry completely before sterilize.

3) Wrapping the Fabrics and Instruments


⑴ Wapping of the fabrics and instruments is purposed to protect the loads not to be
contaminated again when pull the loads out from the chamber. The protective packing
also to prevent the loads from contacting with contaminants during handling them,
entering of the insects and infilterating the dust or foreign matters during storage of the
sterilized loads. The steam sterilization wrapper must be used to protect the surgical
instruments.

NOTE
The muslin of 140 thread count has been used for a packing material for steam sterilization.
The manufacturers of the other materials have to verify their products that is equivalent or
better than the muslin in steam sterilization, dry and keeping of sterile.

⑵ It's helpful to protect the loads from the superheated steam and extend the fabrics life by
using of the 140 thread count muslin laundered cleanly(or equivalent).

CAUTION
DO NOT OVERLOAD STERILIZER. Allow for steam penetration between packs. Avoid
contact of load components with the walls of the chamber.

4) Treatment of the wet Packs


⑴ The most important factor to keep the sterility of the items being supplied is "state of
dryness". The wet materials may be a media of the bacteria and give an worse effect to
the sterile condition of the treated pack or instruments. The main cause of happening wet
pack is not simple but complex and wet pack comes out several situation or condition as
follows,

① Types of loads (instrument sets, utensil sets, textile packs and steam sterilized plastic,
paper or plastic pouch coated with pure plastic).

② Types and size of wrappers (reusable fabrics, disposable items based on cellulose or
polypropylene).

- 31 -
③ Packing and loading method.

⑵ Followings are some guideline for evaluation of the pack dry state.

① It's unacceptable if there exists any water droplets or visible moisture on the external
surface of the pack or banding tape unless that they are completely impermeable to the
water like the plastic film.

② It's unacceptable if there exists any water droplets in the inner side of the wrapper which
is not water impermeable completely or on the packed items.

③ It can't be used if a pack is wet when unpack it. A general guideline is that the pack
must be completely dried after cooling at the ambient temperature(21℃ and 50% relative
humidity) for one hour at least following pull the pack out from the chamber. If the room
temperature and relative humidity is varied from these recommendations, a longer drying
time and increased cooling time may be necessary before the packs are handled or
stored.

⑶ These guidelines are not fixed rule but can be a basis for evaluating the wet pack to
assure an acceptable "state of dryness".

5) Sterilizing of Liquids
⑴ This sterilizer is designed to sterilize the liquid loads only by using the borosilicate flasks
with poromeric lid and it's required a special sterilizer designed for any other flask and with
a non-poromeric lid. The borosilicate glass is recommended because it has a strong
durability of which accepts the high pressure, resists against thermal shock and withstands
to repeated handling.

⑵ If the other type of glass(such as flint glass) and non-poromeric(sealed) lid is used to
sterilize liquid load in the chamber, a dangerous accident which is capable of causing
human injury and property damage may be happened. In case the liquid and residual air
in a sealed flask are heated, they are expanded and create an internal pressure greater
than the external steam pressure, that is progressed to make glass too weak and has
greater potential of bursting.

⑶ After the sterilize phase, the steam with pressure in the chamber is exhausted slowly but
more rapidly than the inner pressure of the sealed flask. The extra pressure in the flask
exists until the residual air and the liquid load cool down unless the lid is poromeric, and
then the latent danger which is capable of causing human injury and property damage may
always exists.

2. Do not use a steel wire brush, a steel wool and an abrasives for cleaning inside
chamber.
3. Remove moisture completely inside chamber with a dried cloth after cleaning.
4. Do not use a uncertain detergent for cleaning inside chamber, it may leads a poor
sterilization.

1) Cleaning of Chamber Inside and Drain Pipe


⑴ Chamber should be cleaned before sterilizing. It must clean immediately to prevent
solidifying and corroding when the solution was spilled on the chamber floor. Wash all
interior surfaces with a mild detergent solution and rinse with water. Clean the shelves and
loading car in the same manner.

⑵ Remove the fragments of foreign matter, cloth patches and any debris from the chamber
before operating the sterilizer. The chamber drain screen should be lifted out, inspected and
cleaned prior to loading.

⑶ Check and clean the drain pipe system once a week. Lift out the chamber drain screen
and insert a suitable funnel into the draining hole and pour one liter of hot trisodium
phosphate solution(containing about 28 gram of trisodium phosphate) into the pipe, and
flush the pipe with one liter of hot tap water again.

- 47 -
2) Cleaning of Chamber Drain Filter
The filter is in the drain hole of the chamber and it should be disassembled and cleaned
daily to prevent the drain hole from clogging. To clean the drain filter, lift it with hand and
remove dirts or debris completely with wire brush, and then put the drain filter again in the
drain hole.

Figure 6-1. DRAIN FILTER

3) Replacing of Door Gasket


The door gasket should be cleaned as frequently as possible because it has to keep airtight
of the chamber. It must be inserted correctly in the gasket groove and checked whether
deformed or not and its elasticity. Remove the old gasket with a suitable tool and clean the
gasket groove up. Insert a new gasket.

Push insert a center of gasket into the upper side of the gasket groove first, and then insert
it pressing from the center of each side, I.e. upper, lower, left and right side, to the corner
of each side gradually. Push down and insert the gasket completely if there is the parts that
were not fully inserted. The gasket should be put evenly without strain or contraction partially.

4) Door Interlock Release


In case of power failure or switched power off, the door is opened because the hand-wheel
does not revolve counterclockwise. In this case it could open the door as follows.
⑴ Rotate the hand-wheel clockwise fully. Remove access hole cap on the door cover.
⑵ You can see head of the set screw through the access hole with flash light.
⑶ Insert 3㎜ hex wrench to the socket head of the set screw through access hole with flash
light, rotate 3~4 turns the hex wrench clockwise to raise the set screw, therefore the click
is lifted up and fixed.
⑷ Open the door by rotating the hand-wheel counterclockwise.
⑸ In case of checking or repairing of the interlock system, first remove the door hand-wheel,
cover and then check wiring and related components.

- 48 -
Fig. 5-2. Door Interlock Unit

5) Replacing of Air Filter


The bacteria-retentive air filter is installed at the air introducing line of the chamber. This
HEPA filter is designed to filter the particles greater than 0.3㎛ up to 99.999%, therefore it
can filter dust and bacteria contained in the air enough to prevent the sterilized items from
recontamination in the chamber.

The chamber recovers atmospheric pressure from a vacuum state by the introduced air. If the
chamber pressure is not recovered atmospheric pressure within the set time during air-in
process of the vacuum leak cycle, then its error number is displayed on the message center
accompanying an audible alarm. This may be caused by a clogged air filter, so replace the
air filter with new one and retest once at this time.

Pull the used air filter out from the air introducing pipe holding the bottom side of it forcibly.
Put a new air filter in the air introducing pipe. The removed air filter should be discarded
according to the relative regulation.

The air filter is a disposable part, so it is recommended to be replaced at least once a year
even though there is no error during operation.

6) Operating of Main Circuit Breaker (CB1)


As a safety device of disconnecting electric power automatically when occurring an overload
in the electric power supply system, the main circuit breaker is installed in the electric wiring
box and "CB1" is marked. If power supplying is cut off by the main circuit breaker due to an
overload, its cause should be investigated throughly and then turn the breaker switch on after
treating the problem. In case the sterilizer is not used for a long period, turn the breaker
switch off.

7) Operating of Second Circuit Breaker (FUSE1, FUSE2)


Two auto fuses as the 2nd circuit breaker are installed in the electric wiring box. If an

- 49 -
over-current flows to the input part of control circuit, the fuse switches are sprang up by the
joule heat and current is cut off automatically. The cause must be inspected thoroughly and a
proper action should be taken before restarting. Only pushing the fuse switches once to the
original position after cooling is required for recovering its function.

8) Replacing of Temperature Sensor


Temperature is detected by the resistance temperature detector(RTD). The RTD has 100.00
ohms of resistance value at 0℃ and varies at a rate of value depending on temperature
change. The output of the sensor is converted into the temperature display at the
programmed logic circuit(controller).

There are two temperature sensors that one is for the jacket temperature control(TT1) and the
other is for the chamber temperature control(TT2). If a trouble has been occurred in the
temperature sensor during operation, the sterilizer displays the relative error number on the
message center and the cycle in progress is aborted automatically by the built-in self
diagnosis program. The defective sensor should be replaced with a new one.

9) Inspecting of Safety Valve


The safety valve must be replaced for both that if it is not opened at a pressure over the set
point and opened at a pressure below the set point. Do not attempt to repair or adjust the
safety valve. When replacing the safety valve, shut off the steam and power supply first and
do work after cooling down the sterilizer enough to touch safely.

Fig. 5-3. Safety Valve

10) Disassemble and Cleaning of Strainer


Foreign matter or rust accumulated in the strainer may disturb flow of fluid or blocks perfectly
in severe case. The filter should be disassembled and cleaned in the following method;

⑴ Disassemble the hexagon plug and the gasket.

⑵ Take out the filter from the main body.

⑶ Remove the foreign matters or rust from the filter and clean the filter and the main body.

- 50 -
⑷ Put the filter in the body, and replace the filter damaged or corroded.

⑸ Insert the gasket and fasten the hexagon plug tightly, use a new gasket if necessary.

⑹ Check if all the pipe have been connected tightly after assembling.

Fig. 5-4. Strainer

11) Disassemble and Cleaning of Check Valve


The check valve is installed to prevent counterflow of water, steam and air in pipe line.
Failure of normal operation of check valve is mostly caused by the insertion of foreign matter
which interferes attachment of ball cone to the seat.

In this case the check valve should be disassembled and cleaned, but it should be replaced
with new one if the problem persists after cleaning.

Fig. 5-5. Check Valve

12) Disassemble and Cleaning of Steam Trap


Steam trap is installed to drain line for discharging condensates. If the trap does not operate
normally, condensates will not be drained or steam will be leaked causing troubles. In this
case you should disassemble the trap and clean at first. The trap should be disassembled
and cleaned once a month regularly. The method of cleaning is as the followings;

⑴ Remove the cover from the main body.

- 51 -
⑵ Remove the bellows to clean, and check for damaged part.

⑶ Clean inside of the main body and check for damaged part.

⑷ In replacing damaged parts, correct parts shall be used.

⑸ Assembling should be done in reverse order of dismantling.

Fig. 5-6. Steam Trap

13) Inspection of Solenoid Valve


⑴ In general, when the rating voltage is given to the coil, sluggish valve operation, excessive
leakage or noise will indicate that cleaning is required. The strainer also should be cleaned
when clean the solenoid valve, replace the part worn or damaged.

⑵ Check the valve as follows if it's operation is not normal,

① Faulty control circuit : It indicates the loss of electrical power that a metallic click signal
is not caught when the solenoid valve is energized. Check the ground of coil and short of
input line.

② Coil opened : Check if coil is opened. Replace coil if necessary.

③ Low voltage : Check the voltage given across the coil leads. It must be given at least
85% of the rating voltage specified in the nameplate.

④ Incorrect pressure : Check the pressure added to the valve, it must maintain within the
range specified in the nameplate.

⑤ Excessive leakage : Disassemble the valve and clean all the parts, replace the valve if
worn or damaged.

⑶ Changing coil

① Turn off electrical power and disconnect the lead wires of coil.

② Remove nut and separate the nameplate.

③ Remove the old coil from the tube, insert new one.

④ Reassembling is in reverse order of disassembling.

- 52 -
Fig. 5-7. Solenoid Valve

14) Inspecting of Heat Exchanger


Performance of the heat exchanger decreases by scale accumulated inside it, therefore
cleaning is required using tube cleaner such as the trisodium phosphate. Pour hot trisodium
solution(mixture of 1 liter of water and 30 gram of trisodium phosphate) into water inlet of the
heat exchanger. After 15 minutes, wash out trisodium phosphate solution by operating the
pump.

Cleaning should be performed regularly by establishing a proper interval(about once a year)


according to the mineral content of the using water.

Figure 5-8. HEAT EXCHANGER

15) Inspecting of Water Pump


⑴ Priming water: Never operate the pump without the priming water. For the centrifugal
pump, fill water in the casing and the intake pipe before using. If the water supply level is

- 53 -
at the center line of the pump, remove priming plug and open the water supply ball
valve(BV2) a little, then the air in the pump is removed and water is filled. If water
overflows at priming hole, seal the hole with the plug and open the water supply ball valve
(BV2) fully. In case water supply level is lower than level of the pump center, remove the
priming plug and fill the pump and the intake pipe with water through priming hole, then
seal the hole with the plug.

⑵ Operation: During pump operation, check the condition such as leakage, water pressure of
the piping and current to the pump motor, and confirm if there is any trouble.

⑶ Freezing prevention: There is a risk of breakdown by freezing if the pump is stored at the
temperature below 0℃ without operation, so remove the drain plug and the priming plug,
drain water. The plugs should not be screwed until the pump is used again.

Fig. 5-9. Water Pump

16) Steam Generator (Boiler)


⑴ Blowdown: It is the best preventive maintenance for the boiler and will add years
of life to the unit. Make sure a blowdown schedule is established and followed
regularly. Blowdown will remove accumulated hard water scale and dislodge scale
from water heating surface thereby insuring efficient heating. In extremely hard
water areas blowdown is necessary once a day. In soft water areas, once each
week. In case of using the purified water by the reverse osmosis technology, once
a month.

① Turn off the power switch of the sterilizer.

② If you open the blowdown valve (Figure 5-10 ③ ), water will discharged.

③ When blowdown is complete, close the blowdown valve.

④ Fill the steam generator with water through the funnel or water in valve

⑵ Cleaning: Exhaust steam generator. Remove cover of heater terminal (Figure 5-6. ⑥) and
disassemble flange (Figure 5-10. ⑦) with heater assembly. The scale on the heaters and
sensor should be removed, and situation of sensor should be corrected if necessary.
