What’s In The Box
This is a picture of what will be included in your specific kit. We’ll list these items from the top to the bottom as they’re pictured here!
Door Gasket
The first item is the Door Gasket surrounding the parts shown above. The door gasket helps seal the autoclave door and prevent steam leaks. It’s always listed as an annual maintenance part, however if you run consecutive or back-to-back cycles it will need to be changed more frequently.
We have this EZ9 Door Gasket for purchase here.
Safety Valve
The top item under the blue gasket is the safety valve. The Safety Release Valve is designed to relieve the autoclave of any excess pressure so as to not cause damage. It is located inside of the reservoir.
The EZ9 Safety Valve is available here.
Air Jet Valve (Black Top)
Under the safety release valve is the Air Jet Valve with the black top. Failure to clean the air jet valve can result in failed spore tests of your autoclave. And it can be found within the reservoir of the unit.
The Air Jet Valve comes with the Kit available here.
Valve Stem and Plungers
Next are the 3 plungers included in the package. There are two 3mm plungers and one 6mm plunger included. These plungers are encased in the solenoid valve.
The Plungers are available as part of the EZ9 Annual PM Kit available here.
Chamber Brite
The pack with the white tablet is a single pack of Chamber Brite. Chamber Brite should be used on a weekly basis to keep the chamber, valves and the reservoir clean.
Chamber Brite is available to buy here.
HEPA Filter
The HEPA Filter helps to filter the air going into the chamber during the dry cycle.
The proper HEPA Filter is included in the annual preventative maintenance kit here.
Papers
The included paper items include a preventative maintenance marking sticker and an associated instruction manual to help assist you in performing the maintenance properly.
