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
200/300 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.
ANCHORING:
The San-I-Pak equipment will be anchored to the concrete pad
using either 5/8" x 4-1/2" or 3/4" x 6"
long anchor bolts. Ramset Trubolt anchors or equal will be
used. The holes will be drilled in the concrete after the
San-I-Pak equipment is placed in position. The holes in the
base plates are oversized to permit the use of a concrete
drill. The installation personnel will shim to compensate
for any pad unevenness and then tighten all nuts securely.
ELECTRICAL:
The San-I-Pak has two different voltage requirements. The
control circuit is 120 VAC and should be a minimum of 10 amps.
If the San-I-Pak installed cold weather package is used, the
service must be a minimum of 20 amps. The hydraulics for the
unit can be powered either by 120VAC or 240VAC single phase
service, or 208VAC, 240VAC, or 480VAC three phase. The power
requirements are as follows:
SINGLE
PHASE:
Voltage: Actual Amperage Service Requirement
120VAC 16 amps 25 amps
240VAC 8 amps 15 amps
THREE
PHASE :
Voltage: Actual Amperage Service Requirement
208VAC 4.2 amps 10 amps
240VAC 3.6 amps 10 amps
480VAC 1.8 amps 5 amps
The electrical should be stubbed up as shown in the enclosed
installation drawing. The electrical can be run from overhead
and attached to the San-I-Pak as long as it doesn't interfere
with access to the sterilizer's componentry. After the San-I-Pak
has been installed, run the power lines between the fused
disconnect switch (customer furnished) and the San-I-Pak equipment
electrical panel box, in accordance with local codes. The
fused disconnect should be sized in accordance with the preceding
specifications.
STEAM
SUPPLY :
The San-I-Pak requires a minimum steam pressure of 65 psig,
and is capable of handling a maximum of 125 psig. You are
only required to install a pressure regulating valve (PRV)
in the steam line if your pressure is above 125 psig. If your
steam pressure is below 125 psig, do not install a PRV in
the line. A return condensate line is not required. All condensate
is cooled and discharged to the sanitary sewer.
A 1"
insulated steam line is required for systems with 1 to 3 sterilizer
chambers & a 1-1/2" insulated steam line is required
for systems with 4 to 8 sterilizer chambers.
The
San-I-Pak requires a minimum of 97% to 100% saturated steam,
poor quality steam is evidenced by excessive condensate generated
during sterilization. It is required that a shut off valve
and a pressure gauge be installed at the point of connection.
The steam line is typically stubbed up through the concrete
pad. If this is not possible, the steam line may also be run
from overhead and attached to the San-I-Pak so as not to interfere
with the removal of access panels.
The
San-I-Pak unit comes equipped with an inlet strainer and separate
water trap to improve steam quality in the supply line, but
if you have a long run of piping, it is advisable to install
a drip leg with an additional bucket or thermostatic trap.
Insure the steam line has no low spots that may act as a water
trap. The steam should be generated from treated boiler water
to prevent corrosion and/or buildup in the lines.
WATER
SUPPLY :
System requires 1/2" water line at a minimum of 30-65
psi.
DRAIN:
A floor mount drain should be installed beneath the San-I-Pak
near the connection point of the condensate tank. Typically
this will connect to a sanitary drain line. For any variances,
contact the factory. A 2" copper or black pipe drain
line will be connected to the condensate tank and plumbed
so as not to create any back pressure. All condensate will
exit from this line.
PHONE
LINE:
The PLC with remote diagnostic capability is standard on all
sterilizer & compactor systems. A dedicated phone line,
separate from the facility's switchboard, must be installed
into the electrical cabinet. The phone jack must be a standard
A T & T plug in type (Part Number RJ11C). This is for
the modem communication for troubleshooting assistance and/or
the optional ServNet programming. Note: Warranty not activated
until modem is connected.
