8. MESSAGES DISPLAYED
8.1 Alarm management
In the ON and CYCLE statuses, the system supervises the functional events that cause an alarm
status if faults occur. In the alarm status, the system issues a rhythmic sound that can be
interrupted by resetting the alarm itself.
RESET: This is done by pressing the “START/STOP” key (10). If a fatal error has occurred, the
autoclave will remain in the OFF status.
CODE 00
TRIAC ALARM (FATAL)
Autotest handled by the microprocessor of the
heating system.
CODE 01
OVERTEMPERATURE ALARM (FATAL)
The temperature exceeds 150°.
CODE 02
HEATING ALARM (FATAL)
The gradient of the autoclave is less than the
established value during the heating phase with
indicator light (5) on.
CODE 03
INSUFFICIENT STEAM (FATAL)
The parameter between temperature and pressure is
different from the preset value.
CODE 04
WATER LEVEL TOO LOW
The level of the water in the fill tank (13) is less than
the minimum mark. Indicator light (8) on.
CODE 06
MAXIMUM LEVEL IN DRAIN TANK
The level of the water in the drain tank (14) is at the
maximum mark. Indicator light (7) on.
CODE 07
DOOR OPEN (FATAL)
The door has not been shut properly.
Cod.08
TIME OUT LEVEL STEAM
GENERATOR (FATALE)
Level staem generator not maximum down time
standard.
Cod.09
STOP MANUAL (FATALE)
Cycle stopped from the operator.
CODE 10
INSUFFICIENT VACUUM (FATAL)
The preset vacuum value has not been reached in the
chamber within the preset time.
CODE 11
INSUFFICIENT FRACTIONED VACUUM
(FATAL)
The preset vacuum peak is not reached in the
chamber within the preset time.
CODE 13
LEVEL PROBE ALARM (FATAL)
One or more of the tank probes is/are defective.
CODE 14
PRESSURIZING ALARM (FATAL)
The steam generator has failed to reach the preset
temperature gradient.
CODE 15
STERILISATION BAND EXCEEDED
(FATAL)
The sterilisation temperature band has been
exceeded.
CODE 16
STERILISATION BAND NOT REACHED
(FATAL)
The sterilisation temperature band has not been
reached
CODE 17
POWER DROP (FATAL)
Power supply has been cut off.
CODE 18
TIME OUT BOILER (FATAL)
The preset temperature value has not been reached
in the steam generator within the preset time.
NOTE: If the operator resets before the error message has been printed, the alarm will not
appear on the printout. Non-fatal alarms that occur at the beginning of the cycle are not printed
as the cycle is actually not started.
OTHER MESSAGES THAT APPEAR ON THE DISPLAY:
WAIT FOR STEAM GENERATOR TO HEAT:
This is displayed when the machine is powered and still
cold (wait a few minutes before proceeding with the sterilizing cycle).
RELIEVE:
This is displayed once the sterilizing time has terminated (the machine is relieving the
pressure from the chamber).
END OF CYCLE:
This is displayed once pressure relieving and the drying time (if applicable) have
terminated (the machine can be opened and the instruments removed).
