SECTION 1 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS TRAY SUPPORTS Install side tray supports. Tray supports are attached by means of key-hole clearance slots which are slipped over studs located on the sides of the Sterilmatic chamber. BAFFLE INSTALLATION To insure maximum drying of packs, a baffle is supplied with your STM-E Sterilmatic. Place perforated splash baffle in bottom of the sterilizing chamber. Install small baffle with no perforation at the rear of the upper tray support channel.

SECTION 1 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLING PAN SUPPORTS AND BAFFLES 1. Locate the mounting studs on the inside of the chamber. There are two rack mounting studs on each side. 2. Taking one pan support and positioning rack so that the pan stop is facing the rear of the unit and the wires are facing toward the center of the unit. The pan stop is a piece of sheet metal welded to the rack with a 65o bend. 3.
SECTION 1 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS THE ELECTRIC SUPPLY CONNECTIONS FOR STM-E AND STM-EL Connect to proper electrical supply as indicated on nameplate on top of unit. Connection is located behind the terminal box cover at the lower left side of unit. Whether the supply current is 208 or 240 volt, single phase or three phase, all control circuits are 120 volts. In order to accomplish this, a current-carrying grounded neutral must be provided.

SECTION 2 WATER CONDITIONS Market Forge from time to time is asked the question about using distilled or dionized water for use with our Sterilizer models STM-E and STM-EL. We are always asked why these water choices are not allowed for use with our units and what would be recommended. To address this situation, we have complied the following as a means of satisfying these questions: 1.
SECTION 3 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS: 1. IMPORTANT: Make sure the drain valve is closed. Fill bottom of the sterilizer chamber with approximately six quarts of water of just bellow ledge at bottom of door opening. (If water supply is known to be hard or corrosive, a source of treated water should be used.) DO NOT USE DISTILLED WATER. (See page 13) 2. LOAD STERILIZER: Use proper sterilizer loading procedures when placing materials in sterilizer chamber.
SECTION 3 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS STERILIZATION GUIDE PACKS (Linens, gloves, etc.) – Use wire basket to facilitate drying. Be sure condensate baffles are in place. Place packs on edge and arrange load in chamber, so that only minimal resistant to passage of steam through the load will exist. NOTE: Place gloves in upper twothirds of chamber. JARS, CANISTERS (etc.) – Place containers on side to allow for displacement of air and complete contact of steam to surfaces. Drying is also facilitated.
SECTION 3 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS MINIMUM STERILIZATION TIMES TIME (Minutes) 15 20 30 45 ARTICLES - Glassware, empty, inverted. - Instruments, metal in covered or open tray, padded or unpadded. - Needles, unwrapped. - Pipettes, blood diluting, serological, volumetric, etc - Tubing glass (6mm), (10mm) inverted - Flasked solutions 75-250 mo. - Instruments, metal combined with other materials in covered and/or padded tray. - Instruments wrapped in double thickness muslin.
SECTION 5 ASSEMBLY DOOR ADJUSTMENT The Door Adjustment is Located in the Fulcrum Casting at the base of the door opening. This adjustment employs the use of a screw and locknut In order to adjust the Sterilmatic Door to a tighter closed position (to prevent steam from leaking by the door gasket as pressure builds up), it is necessary to loosen the locknut and back off the screw at least one-quarter of a turn and re- tighten the locknut. THE DOOR GASKET Keep the gasket clean.
SECTION 5 ASSEMBLY ROLLER ASSEMBLY (Items 8 & 9) The Roller Assembly must be kept free-rolling at all times. Should this assembly be allowed to become frozen due to lack of lubrication, undue strain will be put on the door handle and the fulcrum casting while the door is being locked. Use only a dry lubricant such as graphite; as oil or grease will tend to attract dirt to this area.
SECTION 5 ASSEMBLY EXPORT THE PRESSURE ACTUATED TEMPERATURE CONTROL, STM-EX AND STM-ELX The pressure actuated temperature control, located behind the control panel assembly, governs the manufacture of steam by controlling the input of electric current to the heating elements. HOW IT WORKS When the timer is set, rear and front contactors will become energized allowing input of current to the temperature control, thus closing the contacts completing the current to the heating elements.
SECTION 5 ASSEMBLY DOMESTIC CHECKING THE 230° SETTING, STM-EL The Unit should be completely evacuated then temperature selector dial should be turned on 230° Fahrenheit, Observe the current until it takes a sharp drop to approximately one-third of the full load; at this instant, there should be a corresponding chamber pressure of 2 PSI Observing the current further will show an- other sharp drop to approximately 2 Amps; at this instant, there should be a corresponding chamber pressure of 6.
SECTION 5 ASSEMBLY THE TIMER The Sterilmatic is put into operation with the manual setting of the timer. With the setting of the timer, an electrical current is directed to the pressure control. The current energizes the pressure control, which activates the contactor coils to cause a current flow to the heating elements. When the cylinder pressure reaches 13 to 13.5 PSI, the timer motor and pilot light are energized.
