The VARIOKLAV Type 25 T steam sterilizer is a compact benchtop unit with an
electrical heater built into the jacket space:
The feed water is pumped from the feed water tank to the jacket space where it is
heated. The heated feed water then supplies the sterilizing steam. The sterilizing
steam is introduced directly into the sterilizing chamber (8). A rigidly mounted
temperature sensor is measuring the chamber temperature.
The following components are stored in the case (3):
•
the sterilizing chamber (8),
•
the safety valve,
•
the feed water tank (4),
•
the control panel (5).
The control panel (5) is used to select sterilization parameters and to start the
sterilizing program. Sterilizing chamber (8) pressure and temperature are shown
on the control panel display.
The built-in timer is used to set a start time for the sterilization cycle.
The sterilizer may include additional expansion options indicated on the front page.
Expansion options are described in Chapter 4.
We highly recommend having the sterilizer serviced regularly by an authorized
service agency. Furthermore, please observe the Maintenance Manual. This will
give you guaranteed trouble-free, safe operation and a long service life.
We offer you a low-priced yearly safety check and benefits such as calibration and
qualification (see Chapter 10.6).
