Sterilmatic STM-E & STM-EL Sterilizers The compact sterilizer that does a big sterilizer job. This little sterilizer has as much inside capacity as many large, more costly conventional sterilizers and up to five times the capacity of smaller tabletop units.

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.
Thus, a three phase system must be 4-wires and a single phase system must be 3-wires. If a current
carrying grounded neutral is not available from the power source, a separate 120 volt circuit must be run.
Most electrical codes require, and we recommend, that a separate disconnect switch be located within
sight of the sterilizer. When a separate 120 volt control circuit must be run, this must also be part of the
disconnect box assembly.
THE ELECTRIC SUPPLY CONNECTIONS FOR STM-EX AND STM-ELX EXPORT
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 the unit. All control circuits are 220 volts.
In order to accomplish this, a current-carrying grounded neutral must be provided.
Thus, a three phase system must be 4-wires. Most electrical codes require, and we recommend, that a
separate switch be located within sight of the sterilizer.
Your Sterilmatic Sterilizer has been developed to answer the need for a compact, automatic, low-cost
steam pressure sterilizer. The following instructions cover installation. Should service be required, it is
readily available by contacting our authorized service agency located nearest to you.
INSTALLATION
Set sterilizer on counter, using the 4" (102mm) legs provided or assemble the an optional stainless steel
stand with under-shelf. If your Sterilmatic includes a water-cooled exhaust condenser, we recommend
the use of the Sterilmatic stand, part number 95-6060. First, level unit in place, then adjust front legs to
pitch the unit forward 1/4" (6mm) to insure positive drainage of the cylinder.
ELECTRICAL
Connect to proper electrical supply box and disconnect switch as shown on one of the following
schematic diagrams-208 or 240 volts, single or three phase. Connection is located behind the terminal
box cover at the lower left side of unit. Whether the supply current is 208 volt or 240 volt, single or three
phase, all control circuits are 120 volts. In order to accomplish this connection, a current-carrying
grounded neutral must be provided. Thus, a three phase system must be 4-wires and a single phase
system must be 3-wires. If a current-carrying grounded neutral is not available from the power source, a
separate 120 volt circuit must be run. Most electrical codes require, and we recommend, that a separate
disconnect switch be located within sight of the sterilizer. When separate 120 volt control circuit must be
run, this must also be part of the disconnect box assembly.
OUTSIDE VENTING
Connect 1/2" (13mm) nominal tubing exhaust to outside vent connection located on the top of the
control housing. IMPORTANT: Exhaust line must be vented to the outside to eliminate the exhausted
steam and the accompanying noise from entering the room. Use 1/2" (13mm) copper tubing or suitable
alternate. Length of the line should not exceed 15 feet (4.5 meters)and should have a minimum of bends.
The line should slope downward after leaving the sterilizer in order to insure condensate drainage.
WATER-COOLED EXHAUST CONDENSER
If outside venting is not possible, an optional water-cooled condenser is available for connection to an
open drain. If required order part number 95-0436 kit.
RECORDING THERMOMETER
If a recording thermometer is provided, refer to installation guide provided with recorder.
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.
OPERATION CHECK
To check for proper operation of unit:
1. Close drain valve by turning handle clockwise.
WARNING:
DO NOT OPEN DRAIN VALVE WHILE UNIT IS OPERATING. PREMATURE OPENING
MAY RESULT IN SCALDING OF OPERATOR.
2. Fill chamber with 4 to 6 quarts (3.7 to 5.6 liters) of ordinary tap water.
DO NOT USE DISTILLED OR DIONIZED WATER.
3. Close chamber door.
4. Set exhaust selector to INSTRUMENTS AND PACKS (fast exhaust) or LIQUIDS (slow exhaust).
5. Set timer to 15 minutes. Cycle will go to completion automatically.
NOTE: Cycle timer will not start until sterilizing temperature is obtained.

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 65 degree bend.
3. Begin to hang the pan support by placing the rear key-way slot onto the rear mounting stud and slide the rack until the slot sits on the mounting stud. When this is done correctly the front mounting stud will be in position to place the front key-way slot. Slide the rack down into its correct position. See Fig. 1.
|
4. After installing one pan support rack correctly, you can install the baffle. Position the baffle so that the 45 degree bend is facing up and towards the front of the unit. Slide the mounting tab onto the flat bend on the pan stop bracket. The baffle should now stay in place by itself, but in a tilted state. See Fig. 2.
|
5. Position the second pan support rack into the cavity and slide the other mounting tab onto the rack flat bend while the pan support rack is not on the mounting studs. Hang the pan support by placing the rear key-way slot onto the rear mounting stud and slide the rack until the slot sits on the mounting stud. When this is done correctly the front mounting stud will be in position to place the front key-way slot. Slide the rack down into its correct position. See Fig. 3.
