- Maximum Safety Pressure: 0.165 MPa
- Power Supply: AC 220V 50Hz (or AC 110V 60Hz variants)
- Power Consumption: 2.0 kW
Key Features & Design
- Full Stainless Steel Structure: Built entirely with medical-grade stainless steel to resist corrosion, support high-pressure containment, and facilitate easy cleaning.
- Double Scale Pressure Gauge: Features a physical dial displaying both internal pressure and matching boiling temperatures simultaneously.
- Automated Safety Reminders: Automatically shuts off heating elements and emits a beep reminder when the sterilization cycle concludes.
- Operational Protection: Features a built-in safety valve that automatically vents steam if the inner pressure exceeds the maximum safe limit.
Core Operation Steps
When running a cycle in this specific unit:
- Add Water: Pour approximately 3 liters of pure/distilled water into the chamber base.
- Load Materials: Place items inside the inner sterilization basket, leaving enough space for proper steam circulation.
- Seal the Lid: Align the lid, close the clasps tightly in an alternating crosswise sequence, and open the exhaust valve.
- Expel Cold Air: Turn on the power. Allow steam to displace the cold air through the open exhaust valve before closing it to let pressure build.
- Run & Cool: Maintain operating pressure for your designated sterilization time. Once complete, turn off power and wait until the gauge reads exactly 0 PSI before attempting to unseal the top.
