To address pressurization alarm issues with the COMINOX STERILCLAVE 18 Series:

1. Follow the instructions in the INSUFFICIENT STEAM ALARM solution.
2. If the alarm persists, check for faults in the heating circuit.
3. During pressurisation or steam peaks, ensure the chamber internal coil is correctly powered (refer to wiring diagrams).
4. Replace chamber probe 21 if necessary.
