  • Page 11: Introduction

    INTRODUCTION HS 66 HS 66 is the designation of a series of GETINGE high-pressure auto- claves with vertically sliding automatic doors, all with the door opening 660 x 660 mm There are both stand-alone and built-in versions. The autoclaves are intended for sterilization of materials in the health service as well as in industry.
  • Page 12 The control unit is therefore prepared for controlling an autoclave having a GETINGE ASF automatic loading and unloading unit. As with other GETINGE double-jacketed autoclaves, the external sur- face of the chamber is more than half covered by all-welded U-sec- tions..
  • Page 13: Overview Of Safety Devices

    For this reason, they must not be replaced with components of any make or design that has not been approved by GETINGE. It is of the highest importance that the operational reliability of these components is continuously upheld during their entire service life.
  • Page 14 Doors The doors are closed and locked while the process is running and remain locked in the event of media loss. The doors cannot be opened until the pressure in the chamber has been equalized with the ambient pressure, not even if fault management gives an opening command. The sliding doors are operated by a compressed air cylinder which has a severely throttled inlet.

    undesired flow through the valves in case of power failure. A fail safe function is achieved. Pressure vessels The sterilizer chamber jacket and steam generator are pressure vessels, designed and built in accordance with standards laid down by official bodies charged with monitoring this area of safety. The internal steam supply to the sterilizer is protected against excessive supply pressure by a safety on the steam generator, the sterilizer or both.
  • Page 16 When the key is in the safety valve check position, steam is produced continuously and regardless of the setting of the operating pressure switch. Water level regulation Version with conductive measurement The Getinge conductive level system is designed for water with a con- ductivity above 2 μS/cm. 12 - INTRODUCTION...
  • Page 17 The distance between the electrodes is another factor that affects the overall sensitivity of the level control system. Version with float The GETINGE float-based level control system is intended for water with a conductivity of 0 to 2 μS/cm, but it can also be used for higher conductivity.
  • Page 18 Overfilling protection The timer relay prevents the steam generator over-filling with feedwater if the level control system stops working. “Reset level button ” If a fault occurs on any of the safety components of the steam generator, it must be reset manually in accordance with applicable boiler regula- tions.
  • Page 19: The Process

    THE PROCESS The steam sterilizing process The universal steam autoclaving process can be divided into three main phases: A Pre-treatment B Sterilizing C Post-treatment Pre-treatment It has been found that moisture is an essential element in achieving ste- rility with steam. It is therefore important that the steam comes into close contact with the micro-organisms to be killed.
  • Page 20 When sterilizing liquids, the temperature is measured with a tempera- ture sensor in the load. The condition for countdown of sterilizing time is that both temperature sensors in the chamber and the sensor in the load indicate the programmed sterilizing temperature. Post-treatment The purpose of the post-treatment is to normalize the temperature and moisture content of the goods.
  • Page 21: Maintenance Program

    Maintenance program Leak test Fully automatic process for steam autoclaves With autoclaves equipped with an analogue pressure transducer the leak test can easily be automatically performed. The leak test is to be per- formed with an empty chamber. The chamber additionally has to have been warm, for example as a result of a heating program having been run beforehand.
  • Page 22 See Components in the TECHNICAL MANUAL for printer settings and maintenance. The system stores the last process so that an “emergency printout” can be produced afterwards if there is a problem with transmission of the printout or with the printer itself. If the system is fitted with a SUPERVISOR, the printer is connected to that.

  • Page 35: Error Codes

    NOTE! Important where a steam generator safety valve has been blowing off for a long time and the chamber is under pres- sure at the same time. Only switch off the sterilizer control switch as a last resort, because doing so disables certain safety functions. Instead, call a service technician who can trip the steam generator circuit-breakers.

    Fire hazard There have been reports of textile loads catching fire in the sterilizer chamber. In all cases this has been due to the load becoming excessively dry and hot. This can happen in two ways: • The load has been placed in a heated chamber and left for a long time without the process being started.
  • Page 40 The sterilizer should have cooled down before cleaning. When the key switch cannot be constantly observed, the person doing the cleaning must always take the key with them. This is to ensure that no-one mistakenly resets the key switch. • Clean the strainer in the chamber floor drain.
  • Page 41: Approved Consumables

    The list of consumables below is intended as a guide to be used with GETINGE’s CE-marked sterilizers. Always check whether consumables have a use-by date before using them.
  • Page 42 Getinge AB recommends using chemical indicators in steam steriliza- tion processes. For other types of processes it the user’s responsibility to evaluate whether individual makes are applicable to the GETINGE sterilizer process. An established test method in which chemical indicators are used is the Bowie-Dick test, with test packages or its equivalent with a disposable package.
  • Page 43 As a result, only equipment that has been evaluated by Getinge AB and registered as approved equipment may be used together with the sterilizer. Should non-approved equipment be used, Getinge AB exempts itself of all product liability for the sterilizer and its CE label.
