2P-Series Sterilizer
Installation Specifications
 

CONCRETE PAD :
The dimensions of the concrete pad will vary depending on the layout of the equipment chosen. It is recommended to have a minimum of 5 ft. clearance in front of the sterilizers for loading and a minimum of 3 ft. behind the chambers for access. The length should be 5 ft. greater than the combined length of the San-I-Pak Sterilizers. "The concrete pad must be level, with no more than 1/2" slope side to side, or end to end." If the San-I-Pak will be mounted on a dock, the dock must also be level. If there will be variations, call the factory for assistance in determining suitability. If a pad is already present at the proposed installation site, insure it conforms with the standards above. The 2P Sterilizer is designed for indoor or outdoor installation. A level surface able to support 1,640 to 1,715 pounds is required.

ANCHORING:
If it is required that the San-I-Pak be anchored to the floor, (check local regulations) use four (4) 3/8" x 3" long multi-set anchor bolts. To allow for construction variations, it is best if the holes are drilled in the floor after the San-I-Pak is placed in position. The holes in the base plates are oversized to permit the use of a 3/8" concrete drill. Shim to compensate for any floor unevenness and then tighten all bolts securely.

DRAIN:
The San-I-Pak requires a drain for the condensate discharge and steam generator blow down, if so equipped. The drain should be a floor type. The discharge end of the condensate tank should be plumbed with a minimum 1" copper or black pipe and air gapped above the floor drain.

ELECTRICAL:
The San-I-Pak unit requires a 120 VAC control circuit. The control voltage circuit should be a minimum of 15 amps and be dedicated just to the unit.

If the unit is equipped with the optional steam generator, a single phase 240 VAC, or 3 phase power source will also be required. Also the control voltage circuit should be increased to 20 amps, because a branch will be used for the generator. The required fused disconnects for use in conjunction with the steam generator are as follows: (If not enough power is available, the unit can be operated utilizing a smaller steam generator. Please call the factory for assistance.)

Actual Amperage Draw

Electric Steam Generator:

  • 240 Volts, 1 Phase = 84 Amps
  • 208 Volts, 3 phase = 56 Amps
  • 240 Volts, 3 phase = 49 Amps
  • 480 Volts, 3 phase = 24 Amps

Steam Generator, Service Requirements:

  • 240 Volts, 1 Phase = 125 Amps
  • 208 Volts, 3 phase = 100 Amps
  • 240 Volts, 3 phase = 75 Amps
  • 480 Volts, 3 phase = 50 Amps

Run power lines between fused disconnect switch (customer furnished) and the steam generator electrical panel box, in accordance with local codes.

STEAM SUPPLY:
If your unit is not equipped with the optional steam generator, a connection to your steam line will be required. A minimum 3/4" insulated line supplying 97% to 100% saturated steam vapor at a maximum flow rate of 60 lbs./hr. is required. For standard installations, a minimum steam pressure of 40 psig, maximum of 100 psig is necessary. If the steam pressure is below 100 psig, do not install a PRV in the line. In cases where only low pressure steam is available, a minimum of 15 psig can be used. The San-I-Pak will be programmed to attain a temperature of 250o F., and hold for a longer period of time. It is recommended that a shut off valve be installed at the point of connection. The San-I-Pak unit comes equipped with an inlet strainer and separate water trap to insure a minimum of water in the supply line.

WATER SUPPLY:
A 3/8" diameter line (or larger) at normal city pressure providing a minimum of 2 gpm is required. It is recommended that a shutoff valve be installed at the point of connection. If the unit is to be installed with the optional steam generator, then a 1/2" diameter line at normal city pressure providing a minimum of 8 gpm is required.

DRAIN LINE:
A minimum 1-1/2" copper pipe or black pipe is to be connected to the condensate tank, and plumbed so as not to create any back pressure. The tank is accessible by removing the lower rear access panel. It is recommended that this line be plumbed to a sanitary drain, but in some cases may be connected to a storm drain depending on local regulations. All condensate exits from this line.
