Mark VII-N Sterilizer / Compactor
Installation Specifications
 

CONCRETE PAD :
The preferred dimensions of the concrete pad are 10 ft. wide and a length of 5 ft. greater than the combined length of the San-I-Pak and receiving container, i.e., 46 feet long. The pad should be a minimum 3,000 psi concrete, steel reinforced, 6" thick. " 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. For good housekeeping practices on ground level installations, we recommend the installation of a trench drain beneath the area where the San-I-Pak and the roll-off container connect. The pad should be positioned to allow adequate maneuvering room for the container handling vehicle. Allow a minimum of 45 ft. of clearance space from container end for such equipment.

ANCHORING:
The San-I-Pak will be anchored to the concrete pad using a minimum of six (6) 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 is placed in position." The holes in the base plates are oversized to permit the use of a 3/4" concrete drill. The installation personnel will shim to compensate for any pad unevenness and then tighten all nuts securely. The container guide channels will be anchored utilizing 5/8" x 4 1/2" Ramset Trubolt anchors or equal.

ELECTRICAL:
The San-I-Pak unit requires a 120V control circuit as well as a 3 phase power source. The control voltage circuit should be a minimum of 10 amps and be dedicated just to the unit. If the San-I-Pak installed cold weather package is used, the service must be a minimum of 20 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 the removal of access panels. After the San-I-Pak has been installed, run power lines between fused disconnect switch (customer furnished) and San-I-Pak electrical panel box, in accordance with local codes. This fused disconnect switch should be sized in accordance with the following specs:

  • 208 Volts = 70 Amp
  • 240 Volts = 50 Amp
  • 480 Volts = 30 Amp

STEAM SUPPLY:
The San-I-Pak requires a minimum steam pressure of 65+ pig, and is capable of handling a maximum of 125 psig. You are only required to install a pressure regulating valve in the steam line if your pressure is above 125 pig. If your steam pressure is below 125 pig, do not install a PRV in the line. We recommend you run a minimum 1" insulated line. Best Sterilization performance requires a minimum of 97% to 100% saturated steam vapor. 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 insure a minimum of water 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 free of corrosives and scale, to prevent corrosion and/or buildup in the lines.

WATER SUPPLY:
Waste processing capacities of 400-800 lbs/hr. requires 3/4" water line at a minimum of 30-100 psi.

DRAIN:
A floor mount drain should be installed beneath the San-I-Pak near the connection point of the roll-off container. Typically this will connect to a sanitary drain line. For any variances, contact the factory. A 2 1/2" copper or black pipe drain line will be connected to the condensate tank on the San-I-Pak unit, and plumbed so as not to create any back pressure. All condensate will exit from this line.

PHONE LINE:
A dedicated phone line, separate from the facility's switchboard, must be installed into the electrical cabinet. The phone jack must be a standard AT&T plug in type (Part Number RJ11C). This is for the modem communication for troubleshooting assistance and/or the optional ServNet programming.
