INSTALLATION
3.1
General
The sterilizer is self-contained and requires
very little installation.
Follow these steps to
set up the sterilizer for operation: -
1.)
Open either side door and remove
the gasoline burner.
2.)
Tilt the unit lengthwise so that the
front end is raised off the ground.
3.)
Unlatch the door on the front end
and swing it down 180° into place.
4.)
Screw the two T bars on the door
firmly into the case to anchor the
door to the case.
5.)
Unlatch the door on the back of the
Sterilizer.
6.)
Raise the back end of the sterilizer,
allowing the door to drop into place.
7)
Tighten the two T bars on the door
firmly into the case to anchor the
door to the case.
8.)
Level
the
sterilizer
as
needed
to
ensure
proper
drainage
of
the
condensate
for effective
operation.
To ensure proper levelling, open the
Sterilizer
door
and
pour
a
small
quantity of water on the bottom
of
the chamber at the rear.
The water
should gently flow to the chamber
drain in the front of the chamber.
9.)
Arrange the shelves as desired.
10.)
Check the chamber and jacket drain
openings on the bottom of the case
and remove any obstructions to the
free flow of the water.
For
indoor
use,
mount
a funnel
under
the
chamber drain and connect to a drain line.
The vent line may be rotated to point in a
convenient direction by loosening the fitting
attaching it to the multiport valve, turning the

Electric Heat
To operate with electric heat, simply connect
the sterilizer to the power supply.
Remove
the
cover
on
the
electric
control
box
to
access the terminal strip. The unit has been
designed
to
operate
on
various
power
supplies.
Inside the sterilizer rear cover are
wiring diagrams for each variation.
220 VAC,
1+, 50 or 60 cycle, 45 Amps,
use
wiring diagram A.
380 VAC,
3, 50 or 60 Cycle,
15 Amps,
use
wiring diagram B.
220 VAC,
32, 50 or 60 Cycle, 25 Amps,
use
wiring diagram C.
208 VAC, 3s, 50 or 60 Cycle, 25 Amps, use
wiring diagram D.
440 VAC, 3s, 50 or 60 Cycle, 15 Amps, use
wiring diagram E.
440 VAC,
1+, 50 or 60 Cycle, 15 Amps, use
wiring diagram F.
For 440 volt power,
change
the connection
on the contactor coil to the 440 volt terminal.
For 440 volt operation (1 s or 33), only two
heaters will be used, with the unit operating
on 2/3 wattage, thereby increasing the heat-
up time.
If 440
volt,
3s,
the
heaters
are
connected across a single phase creating an
unbalanced load.
Operating with 208 volt
power
will
also
increase
heat-up
time
because of the reduced wattage.
