●

When liquid with salt water and much salinity of salt agar etc.

spills in the chamber, blowing, discharge water in the

chamber and wipe up drop of water around the lid gasket

beautifully.

It causes the corrosion of the chamber and the piping when

leaving just as it is

●

Check that the pressure is below "0MPa" before opening the

lid.

●

Absolutely do not attempt to remodel or alter this product.

●Foreign matter (metals, liquid) may enter through the vent hole. Operating the equipment with

such foreign matter inside may cause trouble with the equipment, fire or electric shock.

●Do not forcibly bend, twist, tie or extend the power cord. Do not place heavy objects on the cord.

A damaged cord or exposed wire can cause fire or electric shock.

●Never connect the power cord to a power supply other than one of the rated voltage. Connection

to such a power supply can cause fire or electric shock.

●If grounded socket is unavailable, ground the equipment using a separate ground wire before

connecting the power cord to the power source.

●Connect the grounding cable correctly to the Type D or higher-grade grounding terminal. Never

connect the grounding wire to gas pipes or water pipes.

●Close the lid after confirming that no foreign matter is adhering to the section contacting the lid

gasket. Foreign matter in this section can cause vapor leaks.

●When using a waste processing bag or other kind of bag and disinfecting, place the bag in the

metal mesh holder and then insert it into the chamber. Using the bag “as is” can cause excessive

temperatures, pressures, lack-of-water, etc.

●Be careful not to pinch your hands when closing the lid.

●Do not touch the lid or lid cover when opening or closing the lid.

●Do not put your face or hands close to the chamber when lifting the lid after operations are

complete; steam will gush out of the chamber.

●The lid, chamber, gasket and panel are extremely hot immediately after the completion of

operation. Do not touch the equipment or you may get burned.

●Put on heat insulating gloves before removing a substance from the chamber. Do not put hands

into the chamber until the steam has been vented.

●Some time is required for liquids to cool. Be sure to check that the temperature has dropped

sufficiently before unloading a liquid from the chamber or burns can result.

●Do not unload the exhaust bottle or drain the chamber when the chamber is under pressure.

Boiling water or steam may gush out causing burns.

●Do not remove the exhaust bottle before water in the bottle has sufficiently cooled.

●If any abnormality occurs (e.g. abnormal sounds, smells, smoke), immediately shut the power off.

After checking to see that the abnormal condition does not continue, call our authorized

distributor in your region.

●If the display reading changes between the steps, turn the POWER switch off then on again. If

the problem continues, turn the power switch off and call our authorized distributor in your region.

Chapter 1. What is the Autoclave HG-50?

1. Product Uses

・The product is used to sterilize substances which can withstand high temperature and high

pressure steam such as tools of glass, ceramic, metal or rubber, water, media, reagents and

liquid medicines (Mode 1 – 3) .

・The product is also used to liquefy media (Mode 4).

2. Product Features

・In order to secure safety, the product is provided with a lid cover around the section that

becomes hot during operation,.

・The lid of the product is opened and closed automatically. It is not necessary to bring your

hands near the chamber port to open or close the lid. The safety has been improved this way.

・The agar cycle, which prevents solidification of sterilized media when they are not taken out

immediately, and the dissolution cycle, which dissolves solidified media, are provided.

・When the exhaust valve (the opening of the exhaust valve) is set, fine exhaust is conducted

automatically after sterilization.

・Steam that comes out of the exhaust valve during air release and exhaust is cooled in the

cooling tank to minimize the quantity of steam that is emitted into the room.

・The temperature, at which the loaded substance cannot be taken out, can be set for safety within

the range of 60-97℃for each cycle and program number.

・A reservation timer is provided to permit operation startup at any desired time within the range of

1 hour to 99 hours later.

Chapter 2. Installation

●If the equipment is installed in a place which is 800m or higher than sea level (i.e. under low

pressure in mountainous areas), the settings must be changed. In this case, be sure to contact

our authorized distributor in your region. Do not use the equipment before changing.

●When relocating the product, close the lid so that it will not move, and then remove the drain

bottle and power cord.

1. Installation instructions



Avoid installing the equipment in a place where its

body may be exposed to water or chemicals, or

where corrosive and explosive gases may be

produced neareby.



Avoid placing the equipment directly under a fire

detector. If you open the lid immediately after

completion of operation, steam comes out of the

working c hamber, and may activate the detector.



Arrange the equipment with a clearance of 10 cm

or wider on the right side and 12 cm or wider on

the rear side to prevent the vent hole from

being blocked.

10cm or more



Avoid an installation place which is subject to impact

or vibration.



Place the unit in a level, firm place.



Avoid installing in a place which is subjected to a room

temperature of 5

℃

or below or 35

℃

or above.



Avoid installing the equiopment in a place which is

exposed to hight humidity, direct sunlight or much

dust.

2. Installation Procedure

Pour water into the cooling tank.

・Remove the cap from the water filler port at the

back of the unit, and pour water through the

water filler port by using a hose, etc. up to the

center of the level confirmation window at the

side of the unit.

After water supply, return the cap back to the

original position.

(Hoses, etc. are not provided. Please prepare

them by yourself.)

Put casters on the caster stoppers so that the

unit will not move.

・Place two casters at a position more than 64 cm

away from the wall, and push the unit so that the

front casters will be on the stoppers.

・Be sure to set the caster stoppers, otherwise the

full water function of the drain bottle may not be

activated.

Connect the power cord to the rated power supply.

・Be sure to connect the grounding wire.

●Do not forcibly bend, twist, tie, or extend the power cord. Do not place heavy objects on the cord.

A damaged cord or exposed wire may cause fire or electric shock.

●Never connect the power cord to a power supply with a voltage other than the rated voltage.

Connection to such a power supply may cause fire or electric shock.

●If not plugging the sterilizer into a grounded socket, ground the equipment separately before

connecting it to the power source.

●Never ground to a gas pipe or vinyl chloride water service pipe.

・ Connect the unit to a power unit of as below and to ground the Green/Yellow grounding wires.

・ AC100V: 20Amp or more, AC110V: 19Amp or more, AC120V: 17Amp or more,

・ AC220V: 10Amp or more, AC230 and AC240V : 9Amp or more.
