    AHS-Ni/12 DO NOT OPEN THE AUTOCLAVE UNTIL THE END OF THE PROCESS AND THE MANOMETRE WILL SHOW "0". ¡CAUTION! Place the tray for collecting water below the entrante of the vessel in order to collect water that may drop while opening the door. AUTOCLAVE SHUTDOWN To stop the autoclave, put the main switch in the position 0.

  • Page 17: Exhaust Switch

    AHS-Ni/12 EXHAUST SWITCH This switch can be used to attenuate the pressure in the chamber. If for any reason or emergency you need to open the door of the autoclave, when there is still pressure in the chamber, press the exhaust switch (7) until the manometer shows 0. PROTECTED PROGRAMS (Info.) The autoclave comes from the factory with 4 standard program of sterilization, memorized in programs P0 to P3, and they are protected, that means impossibility to change them.

    AHS-Ni/12 We must clean the filter carefully under a current water flow, using a sharp tool if necessary to remove bigger residues. If it is obstructed with agar, we must use hot water. If we can not recover the filter, we must replace it for a new one. To re-insert the filter, we must use a screwdriver.

    AHS-Ni/12 SAFETY THERMOSTAT Sometimes, the alarm pilot-light (6) may light on: it may indicate that there is not enough water in the autoclave or that the temperature is too high. In that case, the safety thermostat will block the heating system of the autoclave and the pilot-light (6) will stay lit up. To rearm the safety thermostat and to restore the service of the autoclave, press the red button (15) until you hear a “click”.
