Operating Instructions for Model 50X/75X Electric Pressure Steam Sterilizer
IMPORTANT: DO NOT OPERATE THIS PRESSURE STEAM STERILIZER UNTIL YOU HAVE
THOROUGHLY READ THESE OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS.
Cleaning
When you are done using your sterilizer, you
need to empty the water from the unit, rinse
thoroughly and dry completely. This procedure
needs to be done daily. Do not leave water in the
unit overnight. Rinse thoroughly between water
changes. Store your sterilizer in a dry area. On
your next use, fill the sterilizer with clean distilled
water. Distilled water is the recommended water.
If distilled water is not available, then you may
use your local water. If your local water supply
contains lime or high levels of minerals, the unit
will require periodic cleaning to remove and
prevent the buildup of deposits.
Units should be cleaned whenever there is a
buildup of lime or mineral deposits. After many
cycles, a white deposit may begin to form on the
bottom of the sterilizer. We recommend cleaning
with a lime remover. Manufacturers of coffee
makers have cleaning solutions which may be
used. There are also solutions available at your
local hardware and drug stores that can be used
to clean aluminum. Follow the manufacturer's
instructions and make up a solution of the
cleaner, filling your sterilizer above the standard
operating level. Let the sterilizer stand a few
minutes then rinse thoroughly. You may have to
repeat this procedure a few times to fully remove
the lime and mineral deposits from your sterilizer.
Never turn the sterilizer "on" when filled
with a cleaning solution.
You may also use standard white vinegar to clean
your sterilizer. Fill your sterilizer above the
standard operating level with vinegar and let it
stand a few minutes then rinse thoroughly. You
may have to repeat this procedure a few times to
fully remove the lime and mineral deposits from
your sterilizer.

Allowable Operating
Environments
This unit was designed to operate in an indoor
environment between 5° and 40° Celsius or 41°
and 104° Fahrenheit. An allowable pollution
degree per IEC 664 cannot exceed a rating of two.
The allowable relative humidity levels are 80%
for temperatures up to 31°C (88°F) and
decreasing linearly to 50% at 40°C (104°F).
Elevation above sea level.
At altitudes greater than sea level, settings need
to be adequately adjusted to compensate for the
effect of altitude on the boiling point of water. We
suggest you increase pressure by 0.5psi for
every 1000 ft. of elevation above sea level.
City Altitude Steam Pressure Required

Overpressure Plug
#1010
The power cord supplied with this unit is a 3-
pronged grounded plug. This plug is intended to
be used with a standard 3-prong grounded wall
receptacle to minimize the possibility of electric
shock hazard from this unit. Do not for any
reason cut off the grounding prong or use a 2-
prong adapter plug. This unit is rated to be
operated using local consumer electrical power. It
has a transient over voltage rating of II. The 120V
unit is designed to operate at a frequency of
50/60 Hz with a line of voltage of 115 volts AC+/-
10%. The 240V unit is designed to operate at a
frequency of 50/60 Hz with a line voltage of 230
volts AC +/-5%.
If in doubt, the user should have the wall
receptacle and circuit checked by a
qualified electrician to make sure the
receptacle can provide adequate current
and voltage, and is properly grounded.
