NOTICE! Select the real volume of the liquid in the container, NOT
the container capacity!
Place the container with the medium
to be sterilized in the process cham-
ber – close the lid. the appropriate
closing is confirmed by appearance
of a button enabling passage to the
screen with medium volume selec-
tion.
select the volume of liquid in the
container. Push the button start
to commence the sterilization
programme.
switching on the start button ani-
mates the display which
shows the information on the current
status of the process
(pressure, temperature and time).
4.5. Medium temperature after autoclaving
the microjet sterilizer cools down the medium in the contain-
er to <100°c, so it can be removed in a safe way. in the case
of larger volumes (>250 ml), it can happen that a part of the
flask capacity (surface layer) might have a slightly higher tem-
perature than 100°c (over-heating), then if the flask is moved
in a rapid, swift way, the liquid may boil over. thus, especially
in the case of dense media and large volumes, the operator
should not mix the flask contents directly after removing from
once the heating is completed, the
cooling process starts with simulta-
neous pressure release.
the entire process runs automatical-
ly. - at the end, the display shows:
STERILIZATION COMPLETE, SAFE TO
oPen. the lid can be opened now
and the flask removed. be careful –
the flask is hot (about 90°c).
