Control lockout switch - prevents cycle from starting until limit switch signal is received. If signal is lost during cycle, alarm activates, cycle aborts and chamber safely vents controlled exhaust. Chamber float switch - activates alarm, aborts cycle and safely vents chamber if detecting excessive condensate. Pressure relief valve - releases pressure buildup in chamber if approaching or reaching rated pressure. Vacuum pump effectively pulls chamber to specified vacuum levels and reduces water consumption. Resistance Temperature Detectors (RTD) are installed for sterilizer temperature control. Dual element chamber drain line RTD senses and controls temperature variations within sterilizer chamber. Dedicated RTD provides jacket-space temperature control. Electronic water saving control includes an RTD to control water quantity used in condensing chamber steam exhaust. Automatic utilities start-up/shutdown permits utilities conservation. Shutdown may be programmed to activate at a specific time of day. When used, utilities control automatically shuts off utility valves, conserving steam and water. Sterilizer utilities can be restarted automatically or manually. Different daily shutdown and restart times can be programmed Steam activated gasket requires no lubrication and is warranted for 2 years. Enhanced display is located at ergonomic height and features large cycle countdown visible from 15 feet away. Ink on paper impact printer provides permanent cycle record. Utilities usage is minimized with multiple temperature sensors. System operation can be continuously monitored with remote service monitoring.
