6 Key Factors to Extend the Life of a High Pressure Sterilizer

Table of Content [Hide]

    Proper Operation to Avoid Human-Induced Damage


    • Always follow the user manual carefully.


    • When loading, ensure items are placed properly to avoid blocking the steam passages.


    • Use appropriate sterilization bags or containers to prevent sharp objects from scratching the chamber.


    Regular Cleaning of the High Pressure Sterilizer


    • After each use, or periodically, ensure that sterilization water is emptied from the chamber.


    • Clean the sterilization chamber regularly to prevent scale buildup that could affect heating efficiency.


    • Clean the door seals to ensure proper sealing and prevent steam leakage.


    Water Quality Management to Reduce Equipment Corrosion


    • It is recommended to use distilled or deionized water to reduce scale and impurity deposits.


    • Regularly check water quality to avoid corrosion caused by hard water or excessive chlorine content.


    Regular Maintenance of the High Pressure Sterilizer


    • Periodically apply high-temperature lubricants to moving parts such as the door lock and rails to reduce wear.


    • Check key components such as the pressure gauge, safety valve, and temperature sensors for proper functioning.


    • Regularly replace consumable parts (such as seals and filters) to prevent performance degradation due to aging.


    Record Keeping of Operation and Maintenance


    • Keeping records of the high pressure sterilizer's operation and maintenance helps identify potential issues early and take corrective actions.


    • This practice not only extends the lifespan of the equipment but also improves its operational efficiency, ensuring it performs well when needed most.


    Proper Storage of the High Pressure Sterilizer


    • If the high pressure sterilizer is not to be used for an extended period, empty the water tank and sterilization chamber, and keep it dry to prevent mold growth.


    • Store the high pressure sterilizer in a well-ventilated, dry environment free of corrosive gases.
