long-distance transportation, and tighten if any.
Check and record the accessories randomly carried by the equipment.
- 17 -
TD-XT-D004-001 V2.19
corresponding parts of the floor need to be reinforced according to the
specific situation.
Ventilation and heat dissipation: In order to better ensure the normal
operation of the equipment and a comfortable working environment, it is
suggested that a suitable ventilation system should be installed in the
working room to control the ambient temperature and humidity around
the sterilizer.
Drainage: A drainage pipe with a size at least one specification larger than
that of the drainage pipe outlet configured by the sterilizer shall be
selected, and the drainage pipe shall be led to the trench separately for
discharge outside, and shall not be communicated with other drainage
pipes in the building (such as cleaning, floor drain, etc.), otherwise some
gas discharged by the equipment during operation will affect other
rooms.
If the water source pressure is lower than 0.1 MPa, the vacuum
procedure cannot be started.

Turn on the power switch, log in with administrator or above authority,
enter the manual operation state, click the automatic/manual switch button,
and click B (vacuum pump) to start the vacuum pump at this time. Observe
whether the rotation direction of the vacuum pump motor fan is clockwise,
otherwise any two load lines on the three-phase load switch should be
switched.
Note: When performing this operation, if two people cooperate with each
other, the reversal time of the vacuum pump will be reduced.
In the manual state, click the corresponding label of the solenoid valve
(F2 intake valve F3 evacuation valve F4 return valve F5 slow discharge valve
F6 water injection valve F7 pump valve), open the solenoid valve, and gently
approach the top of the solenoid valve with a screwdriver to feel strong
magnetic attraction.
3) No-load test
Before running the program, the leak test shall be carried out according
to the instructions in Chapter 5 "Use and Operation". If the test fails,
there is leakage in the pipeline communicating with the inner chamber.
At this time, check carefully to eliminate leakage points and retest until
the test is qualified, otherwise the sterilization effect of the equipment
will be affected.
Parameter Setting: refer to the working parameters of the program in
Chapter 5 "Usage and Operation" for setting.
After the parameters are set, the routine operation of fabric, equipment
and BD experimental procedures can be carried out. Please read
Chapter 5 "Use and Operation" for the specific procedure process.
During the operation of the program, the tightness of the pipeline and

the door shall be checked, and any steam leakage found in the pipeline
shall be handled in time.
4) Load Test
The above procedures are all carried out under no-load, and the load
test shall be carried out after the no-load test is completed. In the load
test, the load of non-liquid sterilized articles such as instruments and
fabrics shall not exceed 80% of the volume of the inner chamber, and
shall be placed on shelves, and each dressing bag and instrument bag
shall maintain a gap of 10mm. The load test must test the sterilization
effect of the inner center point of the package. According to the
introduction of Chapter 9, B-D test procedure, chemical test and
biological test are carried out on the sterilizer to observe whether the
test effect meets the requirements.

Chapter IV Structural Features and Working Principle
This product consists of cabinet body, cabinet door, shelf, pipeline system
and control system. Using saturated steam as medium, the effect of disinfection
and sterilization can be achieved under the condition of high temperature, and the
pulsation times can be set as required. See Appendix 3: General Assembly
Drawing.
4.1 Cabinet
The cabinet door of this series of sterilizers is mainly composed of door panel,
door bolt and locking mechanism, sealing ring, hinge plate, door cover, handwheel,
pressure safety interlocking system and control elements.
- 24 -
TD-XT-D004-001 V2.19
1) Door-open Direction:
The operating end is called the front door and the non-operating end is called
the rear door (only for double-door sterilizers). General configuration is that
the single door is left open, the double door is right open for the front door and
left open for the back door.
If it is a device that needs to change the direction of opening the door
according to the user's requirements, some of its functions need to be
operated in reverse according to the following introduction.
2) Removal of door cover:
First remove the logo in the middle of the handwheel, then unscrew the screw
in the center of the decorative cover with a cruciform screwdriver before
removing the handwheel seat. Then remove the screws on the upper left and
lower right of the door cover. At this time, hold the two sides of the door
cover with your hands, break it slightly outward and lift it upward. At this time,
the door cover can be removed.
3) Door bolt and locking mechanism:
The locking of the door is completed by manually driving the screw to rotate
through the revolving door handwheel so that the nine door bolts extend
outward.
When leaving the factory, each door bolt gasket has been adjusted. If air
leakage is found, users should not adjust it indiscriminately. The adjustment must
be carried out by professional personnel, otherwise the adjustment will get worse.
Close the door
Before closing the door, each door bolt is in the fully contracted position,
i.e. The door handwheel turns counterclockwise to the limit position. Close the
door, make the handwheel rotate clockwise, the door bolt automatically extends
out and inserts into the front sealing plate, and then continue to rotate the
handwheel. When the operator hears the "click" sound of the door switch in the
- 25 -
TD-XT-D004-001 V2.19
door cover being pressed, continue to rotate for half a circle to one circle to
completely press the handwheel.
Note: The door will only open when the inner chamber pressure
is equal to the atmospheric pressure!
Door switch
The door switch is installed in the door cover and acts by the pressure of the
door bolt. The front and rear doors of the double-leaf cabinet each have a door
switch. The program can only be started after the current rear door is tightly
closed. If the door is not tightly closed, the program cannot be started, thus
avoiding the phenomenon of starting the machine without the cabinet door being
tightly closed. In case of special circumstances, the pressure plate on the door bolt
can be adjusted to adjust the sequence of door opening and closing actions.
4) Pressure safety interlock:
The cabinet door is equipped with double safety. A travel switch is installed at
the lower left of the door panel. The switch is pressed down before the door is
locked to turn on the program control circuit of the equipment. That is to say,
the cabinet door is not locked and the program cannot be started. When the
program is started, the electromagnetic lock pops up (both the front and rear
doors of the double-leaf series pop up). At this time, the handwheel cannot
- 26 -
TD-XT-D004-001 V2.19
rotate and the door cannot be opened. When the sterilization procedure is
completed and the inner chamber pressure drops to less than ± 10 KPa, the
electromagnetic lock is retracted and the door can be opened.
5) Post-Haff
For manual doors that are used for two years or more, some of them will
have serious consequences of long-term abrasion of the rear Haff two positioning
pins and cam spiral grooves, especially at the rear Haff two positioning pins, which
will cause them to break from the root in serious cases and the doors cannot be
used normally. Most of the above phenomena are related to the operator: if the
cabinet door is not in a good position and is forced to close the door, the part will
be severely worn if the force is too large, and serious wear will lead to the cabinet
door being completely unusable. Therefore, the opening and closing force should
be moderate to prevent damage to transmission components.
6) Sealing ring
Structure: Sealing ring is a specially processed annular silicone rubber ring. Its
material composition, shape design, correct installation and maintenance are
crucial to its normal work and service life. The sealing ring used by our
company adopts a special formula of silicone rubber material, which
effectively ensures its stability and reliability in high temperature working
environment.
Principle: The sealing ring is fixed on the sealing ring seat of the main body.
When the cabinet door is closed, the sealing ring is tightly attached to the
sealing plate in front of the end of the cabinet body under the action of
external force. Due to the ladder shape of its sealing surface, certain
deformation will occur in the sealing process to realize the sealing of the door.
Maintenance: Although the long-term use of the sealing ring has been fully
considered in the design and material selection, the following factors may
affect the service life of the sealing ring. These factors should be avoided as
- 27 -
TD-XT-D004-001 V2.19
much as possible to ensure the longer service life of the sealing ring.
a. At the end of one shift, the main steam control valve entering the
sterilizer shall be closed in time to keep the cabinet door in the open
position, otherwise the sealing ring will gradually age due to high
temperature and pressure for a long time.
b. After half a year to one year of use, the sealing ring should be removed,
gently scrubbed with alcohol, dried and installed back to the end surface
of the cabinet door panel together with the sealing bead.
c. During operation, attention should be paid to prevent hard objects from
colliding with the sealing ring, otherwise it is easy to cause permanent
damage to the sealing ring, thus reliable sealing cannot be realized.
d. In the process of use, regular scrubbing of the surface of the sealing ring
and door panel will prolong the service life of the sealing ring.
Failure: It can basically be determined that the sealing ring has failed when
the following reasons occur.
a. The surface of the sealing ring is obviously hardened, and when pulled, it
feels that it has lost its elasticity and has mesh lines.
b. The sealing ring is cracked or has broken.
Note: The judgment of whether the sealing ring fails or not should
be considered comprehensively, which has a great relationship with
the long-term accumulation of operators' experience.

selected for the water adding pump, which has the characteristics of small
volume, high outlet pressure and reliable operation.
d. The liquid level is controlled by the upper, middle and lower probes,
and the liquid level of each working stage is displayed through the glass tube
water level gauge on the outer decorative cover.
The steam generator can realize the following automatic control
functions:
a Automatic water adding function: During the working process, the
water level in the steam generator body drops due to the continuous
output of steam. When it is lower than the high water level for three
minutes, the water adding pump will automatically start to replenish
water to the normal working water level (upper water level); When
the water level rises to the normal working water level, the water
addition pump is closed to stop water inflow so that it can
continuously supply steam to the equipment. In the sterilization stage,
when the water level reaches the low water level, water
replenishment is started.
b Automatic pressure control function: when the steam pressure in the
evaporator reaches the upper limit set by the pressure controller, the
heating power supply can be automatically cut off; When the steam
pressure in the evaporator decreases to the set lower limit, the
heating power supply can be automatically turned on to ensure that
the steam is output at a basically constant pressure.
c Automatic protection function for water shortage: When the water
level in the device body drops to the lower water level due to
unexpected reasons, the heating power supply can be automatically
cut off to ensure that the electric heating pipe will not be damaged
- 31 -
TD-XT-D004-001 V2.19
The pressure controller has been adjusted when the product leaves
the factory. If adjustment is needed, it should be carried out by personnel with
work license.
Pressure Transmitter: Please refer to the Structural Principle Section of the
Control System.
Platinum thermal resistance: also known as PT100, please refer to the
structural principle section of the control system.
Safety valve: The evaporator and the inner chamber are equipped with safety
valves respectively, which play the final role of safety protection when
- 34 -
TD-XT-D004-001 V2.19
improper operation or abnormal pressure of equipment occurs. When the
pressure is higher than its upper limit set value, it will automatically open and
reduce the pressure. When it is lower than the lower limit setting value, it will
automatically close.
Pressure gauge: For single-leaf sterilizer, two pressure gauges are installed at
the front door control end, one showing evaporator pressure and the other
showing inner chamber pressure. In the case of a double-leaf sterilizer, the
rear end is also equipped with the same pressure gauge indicating the
pressure of the inner chamber as the front end.
- 35 -
TD-XT-D004-001 V2.19
2) Rear panel
The rear control is only applicable to the double-leaf sterilizer. It is equipped
with five indicator lights and one inner chamber pressure gauge. The indicator
lights run (green), the door is closed (yellow), the door lock (yellow), the alarm
(red) and the end (green).
3) Main control box
Main controller: Powerful function, the main control part of the controller is a
highly integrated chip produced in the United States, with reliable
performance; Logic judgment, floating-point number operation, data storage,
communication networking and other performances are better than
traditional PLC control. It is a general industrial device integrating
microcomputer technology, automation technology and communication
technology. It is cost-effective and convenient to use, and has been widely
used in various neighborhoods of industrial control. It works according to
pre-input programs, receives and processes various input and output signals,
and controls the process of sterilization programs. The allowable range of
power supply voltage is 24VDC; Its working environment is 0 ℃ ~ 55 ℃.
The equivalent circuit of the controller consists of four parts:
A. Input part: receiving operation instructions or receiving various state
information of the controlled object; Control the process and conversion of
program flow.
B. Control part: This part is the control program compiled by the user, and
the control program is placed in the ROM of the controller. When the system is
running, the controller reads the program storage area in turn, interprets and
executes their contents, and sends the instructions that need to be output to the
output terminal of the controller to control the external load.
C Output part: drive the load directly or through the intermediate relay
according to the execution of the program.
- 36 -
TD-XT-D004-001 V2.19
D. Analog conversion part: 5 analog inputs with 12-bit conversion accuracy;
The input standard current signal is converted into a digital signal, which is
converted into different quantities according to the definition of the program. In
this control, it is converted into temperature and pressure.
The inner wire of the control box must be reliably grounded, otherwise
there will be temperature and pressure jump! !
Buzzer: When misoperation occurs or the sterilization program is abnormal,
the buzzer will sound an alarm sound to prompt. When sterilization is
completed, the buzzer will also prompt.
Indicator light: (double-door equipment) There are five indicator lights, from
top to bottom are door closing light, door locking light, running light, alarm
light and end light. When the loading door and the unloading door are closed
at the same time, the door closing lamp is on, and when the electromagnetic
locks of the loading door and the unloading door are locked at the same time,
the door locking lamp is on.
Safety seat: The safety seat is equipped with a fuse, which is the protective
umbrella of the control system to prevent excessive current from damaging
electrical components. Equipped with cylindrical cap fuse.
Vacuum pump contactor: PLC outputs signals to the vacuum pump contactor
coil. The contactor coil is electrically closed, providing three-phase 380V AC
power supply to the pump, and the pump starts to operate.
Pipeline pump relay: PLC outputs signals to the relay coil of the pipeline pump.
The relay coil is powered on and closed to provide 220V power supply to the
pump. The pump starts to operate and starts to enter water (if it is used for
the first time and the water source is not under pressure or the pressure is low,
water diversion shall be added in advance).
- 37 -
TD-XT-D004-001 V2.19
Heating tube contactor: PLC outputs signals to the contactor coil of the
heating tube. The contactor coil is electrically closed, providing a three-phase
380V AC power supply to the heating tube. The heating tube is electrically
powered and starts heating.
Heating film contactor (only applicable to equipment of 100L and below): PLC
outputs signals to the heating film contactor coil, the contactor coil is
electrically closed, AV 220V AC power supply is provided to the heating pipe,
the heating film is electrically supplied, and heating starts.
4) Solenoid valve: The control system outputs a signal to the solenoid valve, so
that the coil of the solenoid valve is electrically sucked on and the pipelines at
both ends of the solenoid valve are connected. After the coil is powered off, the
valve is closed.
5) pressure control:
When the evaporator pressure reaches the upper limit of its set value,
close the contactor for heating.
When the evaporator pressure is lower than the lower limit of its set value,
open the contactor for heating.
6) Pressure transmitter: The inner chamber pressure signal is converted into a
current signal of 4 ~ 20mA, and then converted into a digital signal through
the module, which is reflected in the touch screen to be the actual inner
chamber pressure value.
7) Platinum thermal resistance:
Working principle: Within a certain range, the resistance of PT100 is linearly
proportional to temperature. As the temperature rises, the resistance value
increases. The temperature decreases and the resistance value decreases. At
normal temperature (20 degrees Celsius), the resistance value of PT100
platinum resistor is 107.79 ohms. The thermoelectric resistance value of
PT100 is sent to the temperature transmitter, which is then transmitted to the
- 38 -
TD-XT-D004-001 V2.19
analog module by the temperature transmitter. After conversion, the PT100 is
sent to the touch screen to display its actual temperature value.
Installation and use: Platinum thermal resistor is installed at the lower exhaust
port of the chamber and cannot contact with pipe wall and accumulated
water. The connection shall be firmly fixed to the terminal.
8) Pressure gauge: Refer to the Piping System section.
The control system uses a high-integration chip as the main control chip and a
touch screen display as the man-machine interface. In the control, the analog
quantity standard module is used for collecting temperature and pressure signals:
the temperature measuring probe PT100 sends the resistance value signal to the
controller and converts it into an acceptable digital quantity; The pressure
transmitter for pressure measurement converts the pressure signal into a standard
4-20mA current signal, which is processed into a unit of quantities. The advantage
of analog control is that the programmable controller can timely detect the
continuous change of temperature and pressure during sterilization and display it
on the man-machine interface.
Before work, all instrument parameters must be adjusted and preset
according to the sterilization requirements of the sterilized articles, and the
corresponding sterilization procedures and working methods must be selected.
Please refer to Chapter 5 "Usage and Operation" for specific parameter settings.
1) Start up
Open the three-phase knife switch (or circuit breaker) in the power switch
box, then open the switch (key switch) on the front panel of the equipment, turn
the switch to the "On" position, and the switch is closed. The 220VAC power
supply supplies power to the controller and the standard power supply (for +
- 39 -
TD-XT-D004-001 V2.19
5V/24VDC) in the control box through fuses, and the standard power supply
supplies power to the touch screen and printer. When the power supply is turned
on, the indicator light of PLC in the control box is on, the indicator light of standard
switching power supply is on, the initial picture is displayed after the touch screen
is self-checked, and the indicator light of the printer is on, all of which are in
standby state.
2) Door control
First, turn on the power switch. For XG1. UCD pulse vacuum sterilizer, turn
the door handwheel after closing the door, and rotate it for 1-1.5 turns after the
door bolt is in place. After the door travel switch is closed, the input signal
returned to the PC will enter the standby state when the front door display screen
shows the door closing state and the rear door indicator light shows that the door
state input has signals.
The front and rear door switches of the sterilizer are controlled by whether
the sterilization program is running, the temperature of the inner chamber and
whether there is pressure in the inner chamber, so as to ensure the safety of
equipment and operators. For the double-door sterilizer, the isolation between the
contaminated area and the sterile area can be effectively ensured. In standby state
or at the end of the process, when the front door (back door) is opened, the
electromagnetic lock of the back door (front door) pops open to lock the door to
achieve the effect of isolation.
Note: If it is a single door (single door) sterilizer, there is no rear door
indication.
3) Evaporator control
The system is powered on. After self-checking, the main controller is in
working state. If the low water level is not reached for water injection, the water
level is heated after reaching and then the pressure of the evaporator is
automatically maintained within a certain range.
- 40 -
TD-XT-D004-001 V2.19
If there is an jacket, the equipment jacket and the evaporator are connected.
When the pressure reaches the upper limit of the evaporator pressure, the main
heating stops heating, and when the evaporator pressure drops to the lower limit
of the pressure controller for a period of time, the main heating starts heating
again, thus circulating.
During the operation of the program (non-sterilization phase), if the water
level is lower than the high water level for 3 minutes, the water injection pump
(valve) will be opened for water injection, thus keeping the water level in the
evaporator at the upper water level.
4) Steam inlet control in the chamber
After the key switch is powered on, each signal is processed by PLC, and the
intake valve is switched and controlled according to the flow requirements.
5) Evacuation of the chamber
In the programs of "fabric", "instrument" and "BD", the chamber should be
evacuated three times during pulsation to make the chamber close to vacuum so
as to enhance the penetration ability of steam. After running the program, the
pulsation stage is entered first after the preparation is completed, and the air in
the chamber is pumped out by the vacuum pump through the evacuation valve.
When the chamber pressure reaches the lower limit of pulsation, the evacuation
valve F3 is closed to stop evacuation. When the chamber pressure reaches the
upper limit of pulsation, the exhaust valve F0 opens, and when the chamber
pressure drops to the evacuation turning pressure (default 30kPa), vacuum starts
again. This cycle is repeated until the set number of pulsations is reached. After
the pulsation is over, the evacuation valve F3 is closed and the vacuum pump stops
running.
Causes of pulsation for three times: in general, the upper limit of pulsation
is 80kPa, the lower limit of pulsation is-80kPa, evacuation is once, and the
discharge is 80%; When evacuated twice, the discharge rate is 96%; When
- 41 -
TD-XT-D004-001 V2.19
evacuated three times, the theoretical value of discharge can reach 99.2%, so
multiple pulsation vacuum effect is better, and the system pulsation setting can
reach 99 times at most.
6) Steam exhaust from the chamber
Exhaust Control in Non-Liquid Programs
After the sterilization phase is completed, the program is transferred to the
exhaust phase. First, open the chamber exhaust valve F0 and start exhaust. When
the pressure in the chamber drops to the evacuation turning pressure, the pump
water valve F7 is opened, the evacuation valve F3 is opened, the vacuum pump
starts to operate, and the exhaust speed is accelerated.
Liquid program exhaust
In the liquid program, after the sterilization process is completed, the slow
drain trap F5 is intermittently opened, and the steam in the chamber is slowly
discharged through the slow drain trap, forcing the pressure in the chamber to
slowly drop, thus preventing the liquid from overflowing through excessive boiling.
7) Dry stage
Due to the different properties of articles, when the drying stage is needed in
vacuum programs such as instruments, fabrics and BD, when the pressure in the
inner chamber drops to the exhaust zero position, the program shifts to the drying
stage. The pump water valve and evacuation valve are opened, and the vacuum
pump is operated to evacuate and dry. When the drying time arrives, the
evacuation valve, pump water valve and vacuum pump stop running and the
drying process ends.
8) Program End
In the programs of fabrics, instruments, BD, etc., when the drying time is up,
the air valve F4 is opened, the air inlet pipeline of the chamber is unblocked, air
inlet is started, and the pressure of the chamber is restored. When the pressure of
the chamber reaches the zero position of empty return, the program is delayed
- 42 -

loads
Cooling temperature: set range [50 130], default 105 ℃ (except liquid)
Drying time: setting range [0 7200], which varies according to different loads
Chamber pressure limit: set the range [0 300] and set the corresponding value
according to different sterilization temperatures.
Vacuum pump mode: In the pulsating phase, whether the vacuum pump will
continue to work (the evacuation valve is closed) after the vacuum is finished
and the air intake is started can be intermittent or normally open. Default
break. This item is set to protect the vacuum pump.
Replacement time: the heating stage in the liquid program, when the steam
enters into chamber from the jacket and discharges steam from the exhaust port,
the purpose is to gradually replace the cold air in the inner chamber.
Pulse count: The function of pulsation is to forcibly empty the cold air in the
sterilization room and sterilized articles by vacuum pump before sterilization. The
amount of cold air removed determines the sterilization effect, and the number of
pulsation times and the amplitude of pulsation determine whether the air is
completely removed.
Sterilization Temperature: This temperature should be set according to
different sterilization articles and production processes. Different temperatures
will have different effects on sterilized articles. High temperatures will require
shorter sterilization time, otherwise longer sterilization time will be required.
Sterilization Time: The sterilization time should be set differently according
to different sterilization articles and production processes, with a maximum of
9999 seconds (166.65 minutes). Sterilization time includes heat penetration time,
heat death time and safe death time. Penetration time refers to the time
required after the sterilization chamber reaches the set sterilization temperature
and starts recording, and when the inside of the sterilized article also reaches the
set sterilization temperature. Thermal death time refers to the killing time of
- 50 -
TD-XT-D004-001 V2.19
microorganisms at the specified sterilization temperature, generally 121 ℃ (12
minutes), 126 ℃ (10 minutes) and 132 ℃ (3 minutes). The safe time is to ensure
the effectiveness of sterilization. Generally, 1/2 ~ 1/3 of the thermal death time
of microorganisms is taken.
