as the paper will be blackened.
Do not pull out the paper roll from the paper insertion opening.
Use only the 58mm. wide thermal paper rolls, supplied by your
dealer. Larger rolls will not fit inside the printer.
28
Note:
Make sure while placing the autoclave, to leave space around the machine, to
give the technician access to service the machine.
6.1 Electrical
The electrical connection should comply with the device's power
requirement. It must also comply with local installation and safety rules
and regulations. The voltage supplied to the device must comply with the
label 5%.
Note: Keep the back and the right side of the autoclave approximately 1”
(25mm) away from the wall to allow for ventilation.
Connect the power cord to the socket on the rear side of the autoclave;
plug it into the supply outlet. The autoclave must be connected to a
properly grounded outlet.
6.1.1 Setup for new units 2340, 2540, 3140, 3850 & 3870
Your new Tuttnauer Autoclave was set at the factory and requires a
minimal of setup.
29
Pour the proper amount of water into the chamber through the
front door of the unit (4).
This water should cover the bottom of the chamber to within +/-
½ inch of the groove in the front. (1).
If necessary, adjust the front leveling feet so that the water lays in
the chamber correctly. (2).
Once the chamber pitch adjustment is completed, empty the
water from the chamber and check if the automatic filling is set
correctly. See sec 6.2.3.
30
6.2.2 For units 1730 & any unit with serial number prior to 2003000
If it becomes necessary to adjust the automatic fill, follow these
steps:
1. Make sure the power is off.
2. The door should be open and the chamber empty of any water.
3. Make sure the Water Electrode is clean (see sec 9.10).
4. Press and hold the Water Inlet key (this is the button on the
keypad with the two arrows).
5. Turn the power on. When the program display screen appears,
release the Water Inlet key – wait one second and press it in
again.
6. Water will begin flowing into the chamber.
7. Monitor the water flow.
8. Hold the Water Inlet key until the water reaches the groove at
the front of the chamber.
9. Release the button – wait ten seconds – the unit is now
reprogrammed.
31
32
33
10. Place a sterilization indicator in each tray or inside each wrapped pack.
11. At least once a week use a biological spore test (Bacillus
Stearothermophilus) in any load to insure proper sterilization. (Be aware,
testing standards may vary). Always follow the spore test manufacturer’s
instructions.
12. Make sure that all instruments remain apart during the sterilization cycle.
Surfaces that are hidden because items are covering other items will not be
exposed to the steam and will not be sterilized.
34
19. Tubing should be rinsed after cleaning. When placed in the tray, make sure
that both ends of the tubing are open and there are no sharp bends or twists.
20. Packs should be placed upright on the tray. They should not be touching
each other or the Chamber walls. There should be about 1” between packs
for proper steam circulation.
35
36
37
Do not touch the strainer’s cover, mounted on the exhaust line, during and
shortly after operation, it will get very hot.
Touching the hot strainer’s cover may cause severe injuries.
38
39
40
To facilitate drying the instruments with the door of the chamber closed,
models EA and EKA are equipped with an air compressor and HEPA
filter (0.2µm). During the drying stage the compressor draws air through
the HEPA filter and forces the circulation of that air through the heated
chamber to remove moisture from the wrapped instruments. The filtration
of the air is performed by the bacteriological filter. Frequency of
replacement will be determined depending on the usage of the autoclave
and the surrounding environment.
The filter is mounted in an opening on the right sidewall of the autoclave
enclosure, this is to allow easy access for replacing it, (see picture below).
To replace the filter proceed as follows:
1. Remove the filter cover (2) by turning the cover counterclockwise
until it is released.
2. Remove the filter (5) from the filter cover by pulling the filter apart
from the filter cover
3. Cut the tie wrap (4) fixing the flexible tube (3) connecting the filter
to the copper pipe, and pull off the filter.
4. Replace the filter with a new one. Connect the filter (5) to the
flexible tube (3) and tighten it with a tie wrap (4).
5. Connect the filter to the filter cover by pressing the filter (5) into the
hole in the cover (1).
6. Insert the filter to its place inside the autoclave and reassemble the
filter cover by turning it a ¼ turn clockwise. Verify that the cover is
fastened well in its place.

Caution
Before starting, ensure that the electric cord is disconnected and
there is no pressure in the autoclave.
The drain valve is located on the front left side of the autoclave after the
door is opened. The function of the drain valve is to drain the water
reservoir.
1. Connect the silicone hose, supplied with the autoclave, to drain into a
bucket.
2. Turn drain valve counterclockwise to the open position.
3. Fully drain the reservoir.
4. With a quart of tap water, flush out the reservoir.
5. Turn drain valve clockwise to the close position.
6. Connect the electric cord to power source.
7. Fill the reservoir with distilled water to just below the safety valve (see
sec 6.5).
8. Turn on the main power switch.
9. The autoclave is now ready for use.
42
A dirty air jet is the number one cause of failed spore tests
The air jet consists of a small orifice with a clean out wire inserted in it
(wire is permanently installed and will not come out). It is required that
the air jet be cleaned once per week or more often if necessary, to remove
any accumulated dirt and debris.
It is preferred to clean the air jet when the unit is running a cycle and
under pressure. Any loosened debris will be blown away, however, it can
be done while the unit is idle.
43
Pull off the gasket from the door groove. Install the new gasket as
described in drawings 1, 2 and 3 above.
Caution!
This gasket is designed with a trapezoidal cross section. The gasket
should be placed with the widest side towards the door.
44
45
Caution
Make sure that the electrical power cord is disconnected!
46
Caution!
Before proceeding, make sure that the electric cord is disconnected
and there is no pressure or water in the chamber.
Warnings
1. The strainer’s cover is HOT
Do not touch the strainer’s cap, mounted on the exhaust line,
during and shortly after operation. Touching the hot strainer’s
cap may cause severe injuries.
2. If maintenance operation is performed while strainer cap is hot,
use heat resistant gloves to avoid injuries.
47
If the autoclave is not cleaned regularly, dirt and debris will build up and
clog the tubing and solenoid valves. This dirt can also be transmitted to
the instruments during sterilization. In addition, a layer of dirt on the
stainless steel chamber traps moisture against the metal and will lead to
the chamber becoming porous and failing.
It is recommended that your autoclave be cleaned with CHAMBER
BRITE ™ once per week.
Caution!
NEVER use bleach, steel wool, a steel brush or anything abrasive to
scrub or clean the Chamber.
Cleaning Procedure
1. Important – all steps in this procedure
must be completed without interruption.
2. When the autoclave chamber is cold,
remove instruments and trays from the
autoclave.
3. Open the door and spread the contents
of a packet in a straight even line along
the bottom of the chamber, from back to
front.
4 Select and start program No. 1.
(without dry). When the cycle is
finished it will automatically exhaust.
5. At the end of the exhaust cycle drain the
water from the reservoir.
6. Fill the water reservoir with distilled
water.
7. Repeat a sterilization cycle without
Chamber Brite ™ powder, to remove
any excessive dirt in the pipes. Select
and start program No. 1. (without dry).
When the cycle is finished it will
automatically exhaust.
8. At the end of the exhaust cycle, drain
the water from the reservoir.
9. Turn the autoclave off and allow chamber to cool.
10. Remove the tray holder; rinse and wipe the interior of the chamber
with a damp cloth.
48
CAUTION:
Keep out of reach of children. Contains mildly acidic ingredients.
Avoid contact with the skin, eyes or clothing. Wash hands well
after touching the powder, in the case of eye contact flush with
continuous running water for at least 15 minutes. If irritation
persists get medical attention. If accidentally swallowed, do not
induce vomiting, drink large amounts of water and obtain
medical attention. MSDS available upon request.
For models 1730, 2340, 2540 use one packet of CHAMBER BRITE ™.
