1. Device Operation and Menu Overview for the Customer Service

1.1 General
The general device operation is to be taken from the appropriate descriptions in the
FA95/LTSF 130 operating instruction.

On the display foils both on the loading side and on the unloading side (two-door sterilizer)
are three different LEDS. Their meaning is described below.

This LED glows green with each key operation, red in case of failures at the
display and it blinks red if the buffer-battery (only loading side) of the display is
discharged.

If this LED glows, the communication between control and display works
correctly (normal condition). If there is a failure of communication, this
LED is blinking.

This LED glows if the display is in normal operation mode. If the LED is off when
operating voltage is present, there is a hardware-error at the display.

By touching a free space (no touch key) on any of the display sides for 5 seconds you get to
the internal system side where the different adjustments can be performed (fig. 1.1).

1.7 Set Maintenance Counter and Delete Maintenance Warning

Pressing this key you get access to the maintenance menu (fig. 1.7).

fig. 1.7

The warning „Maintenance due“ is automatically displayed if the amount of „total operating
hours“ is equal to or higher than the amount of hours for „Maintenance Due Date“.

After the maintenance has been performed, the warning „Maintenance due“ must be
acknowledged. The Acknowledgement Code consisting of the last four digits of the device
no., e. g. 94000 (see name plate or info-page) must be put in. For this press the blue code-
no. and put in the code in the input menu. If the input is correct, the text „Acknowledgement
code correct“ is displayed.

To acknowledge/delete the maintenance warning the button must be pressed.


Internally a new „Maintenance Due Date“ is calculated by adding the „Maintenance
Interval“ to the „Total Operating Hours“.

The counter for the announcement of the message "maintenance due" can be reset
at any time; it is not necessary, that the message has been displayed priorily.

The maintenance interval, i. e. the operating hours after which the message appears can be
changed by pressing the blue figure behind „Maintenance Interval“. Thus adequate
maintenance dates can be adjusted for sterilizers in connection with the fact whether they
are much or less used.

Vers. 09 / 09/06
1.7.1 Start-Up and Exchange of Control (PLC)

After exchanging the PLC as well as upon start-up of the sterilizer the counters for operating
hours must be initialized, because only undefined values are provided. The counters for
operating hours are not reset to zero via the initialization procedure (chapter 1.14).

To get access to the respective page, the acknowledgement code must be put in on the page
„Delete Maintenance Counter / - Warning“. If the correct code has been entered, the
following key appears on the display.

By pressing this key you get access to a display page (fig. 1.7.1). Here the
operation hours counters “Hours Processes” and “Total Hours” can be
adjusted.

fig. 1.7.1

The black values show the current actual values of the PLC, the blue values indicate the
nominal values. Factory Setting of the nominal values is zero. By pressing the button „Write
Data in PLC“ both blue values are stored in the PLC. The black actual values are changing
accordingly.

These values can be transferred as nominal values into the new PLC. This can be done if the
possibility to read out the available operating hours via the display existed before exchanging
the PLC.

To transfer the values the touch-fields on the blue nominal values must be pressed. Then the
values can be adjusted in the input page. After pressing the button the
„old“ values are stored in the „new“ PLC.

After changing the operation hours the maintenance due date must eventually be
recalculated, therefore see chapter 1.7.

The line „MATACHANA / WEBECO“ must always be adjusted to the respective


manufacturer/supplier. Factory setting is „MATACHANA“. By pressing the blue text it
changes from „MATACHANA“ to „WEBECO“ and vice versa. The adjustment affects the
display, the line recorder and the batch printer.

The key is available on the display eTOP11EB. Using this key you get access to the
internal system menu of the display. See also chapter 6.

ServiceManual_Englisch_09.doc WEBECO Hygiene in Medizin und Labor 9


Vers. 09 / 09/06
Programs S1 and S2 are used during final device testing. Program start and program
process of SF1 and SF2 is operated and monitored via the standard process page. After
opening the chamber door upon program end, the display goes back to the display page,
which is pictured above.

The specified function routines can be activated via S3 to S8. By pressing S5 e. g. the
vacuum routine is performed (vacuum pump starts, vacuum valve opens, pump water is fed
into the pump water container according to the temperature regulation). The vacuum pump is
not switched off upon reaching a vacuum switch point. It can only be switched off again by
using the key S5. The same applies to the other functions. Using the additional functions a
program process can be emulated manually. The functions of output boards, relays and
valves can be checked without having to start a complete program.

For safety reasons the function of S6 “FA feeding“ and S7 „DS feeding“ is blocked if there is
a higher pressure than 80kPa. That means before using this functions both chamber doors
must be closed and using S5 „vacuum“ must generate an accordingly deep vacuum.

ATTENTION! Safety routines are switched off during manual use of the system
functions! It is possible e. g. to open the chamber without performing a
desorption priorily.

ACHTUNG! After ending the test functions the service programs must be
deactivated/set to „N“ on the page „Adjust Device
Configuration“ (chapter 1.5). The deactivation takes place automatically
if the device is switched off once with the main switch.

input page for the access code appears priorily. After 0258 has been put in and confirmed by
pressing ENTER, the synchronizing function is released.

By pressing the synchronize-key the next following program step is initiated during a running
program. The message „Synchronize Key activated“ appears in the alarm-/failure line.
Respective texts are emitted on the line-recorder and the batch printer.

If the key is permanently pressed, switching to the next following program step takes
automatically place every 2 seconds.

ATTENTION: After ending this function the „Manual Skipping“ function must be
deactivated again by switching off the key-operated switch (LED of PLC
input „E0“ must be off and key may not be blended in any longer.

By releasing the skipping key and/or by logging in as TAS-Service the button is


released on the page „Program Process“. The service technician then has the possibility to
change to other menu levels during the running process e. g. to the page „Indication of

Vers. 09 / 09/06
1.14 Device Initialization/Reset

When performing a device initialization the factory settings are uploaded from the user
EPROM into the random access memory of the PLC-control. An initialization must be
performed upon initial setup, after exchanging the control (PLC), after a software-update and,
if necessary, after malfunctions of the sterilizer. Alterations of the device configuration or
releasing of programs are always possible by the service technician „TAS Service“. For this a
„Reset“ is not necessary.

After initial setup and after exchange of the PLC the operation hours counters must be
initialized as described in 1.7.1. If the PLC has not been exchanged, only the initializing
procedure described below must be performed.

During initialization all functions and memory contents are reset to their basic values. Data as
e. g. device-no., batch-no., adjustments in the configuration menu (1.5), program release
(1.6) and maintenance (1.7) must be read out/written down before initializing. After
initialization they must be re-entered.

ATTENTION: If a software update is performed by exchanging the user EPROM, the


control is automatically initialized. That means batch-no.; device-no. etc.
must be written down priorily.

Performing the Initialization:

Switch off the device using the device main switch. Turn the key-operated switch in the
electro cabinet into position „ON“ (if the device is switched on, the LED of the PLC for input
„E0“ is glowing). Switch on the device again after approximately 30 seconds. Wait until the
system has booted (normal display indication).

After a RESET all adjustments in the configuration menu (chapter 1.5) must be checked.
Device-no. and charge-no. must be re-adjusted.

If necessary the needed programs must be re-released, see chapter 1.6.

The maintenance due date (chapter 1.7) too must be checked and – if necessary – adjusted.
Additionally „WEBECO“ must be implemented as manufacturer (chapter 1.7.1) if applicable.

If another language as the factory setting (German) is implemented, the language must be
switched back to German on the page KKH-settings at first. Then the desired
language e. g. English can be adjusted. This is necessary in order to have the
printouts of the line recorder and the batch printer in the correct language.

ATTENTION: Before switching off the device again, the key-operated switch must be
switched off (LED of PLC for input „E0“ must be off).

If the key-operated switch is switched ON - e. g. because of performing the synchronize


function during - when switching OFF the sterilizer, this position is stored. When switching on
the sterilizer again, there will no initialization be performed.

2. Tests and Adjustments
To perform the following tests and adjustments display of the actual values must be selected
in the menu KKH(fig. 2.0) via the keys , and .

fig. 2.0

2.1 Tightness Test of the Chamber

The chamber must be empty and dry at the inside.


• Connect a suitable measuring device, range 0 – 100 kPa (0 - 1000 mbar) abs. (calibrated)
to the chamber.
• Start the vacuum test program.
• If the pressure difference is >0,05 kPa/Min (measuring interval 10 minutes, thus maximum
0,5 kPa pressure increase), the chamber is mechanically untight, i. e. there is a leakage.
The limiting value in the vacuum test is 1,0 kPa/min. To obtain security stocks this value is
halved at customer service tests.

2.2 Checking the pressure transducer B070/1 resp. B070/2

The chamber must be empty and dry on the inside.


• Connect a pressure measuring device, range 0 – 100 kPa (0 - 1000 mbar) abs., calibrated
to a maximum deviation of ± 0,1 kPa (1 mbar) and with a resolution of ≤0,1 kPa (1 mbar)
directly to a free nozzle to the useable space.
• Check B070/1: Interrupt the current loop (0- 20 mA = 0 – 100 kPa) of the pressure
transformer B070/1 at clamp X5/3 and bring an amperemeter (measuring range at least 0
–20 mA, accuracy 0,15%, resolution 0,01 mA) into serial connection with the measuring
circuit.
• Check B070/2: Interrupt the current loop (0- 20 mA = 0 – 100 kPa) of the pressure
transformer B070/1 at clamp X5/23 and bring an amperemeter (measuring range at least
0 –20 mA, accuracy 0,25%, resolution 0,01 mA) into serial connection with the measuring
circuit.
• Start program 1 (vacuum test program with different vacuum levels) in the menu „Service
Functions“ (chapter 1.8).

ServiceManual_Englisch_09.doc WEBECO Hygiene in Medizin und Labor 19


Vers. 09 / 09/06
• Read during the holding of the different vacuum levels the values of the connected
pressure measuring device, the amperemeter and the device display.
• The chamber pressure detected by the pressure transducer (B070/1 or /2) can be
calculated from the measured current: P = X mA ÷ 0,2 mA / kPa = kPa (X = measured
value of current in mA).
• The calculated pressure value must comply with the indication in the device display (if not,
the PLC input card, resp. the input channel of the line recorder are not properly adjusted).
The calculated pressure may deviate maximally 0,5 kPa from the pressure value of the
connected external pressure measuring device. If the deviation is >0,5 kPa, the pressure
transducer is defective and must be exchanged against a new one.

2.3 Check Chamber Pre-Heating (Temperature Measuring Circuits PT100)

• Fix an electronic surface temperature measuring device below the upper heating element
of the pre-heating jacket so that it is directly connected to the metal of the jacket.
• Compare the temperature B176 on the device display (indication of current value fig. 2.0)
with the display of the surface temperature measuring device.
• If the sterilizer is pre-heated, the jacket temperature should be between 60,3°C – 62,9°C.

2.4 Adjustment of Temperature Measuring Circuits

• Connect a PT100-simulator instead of the PT100 to the respective clamps (see circuit
diagram).
• The characteristics, wire lengths and cross-sections have to be considered.
• Adjust the Pt100-simulator to 60°C and balance the indicated temperature in the display
with the respective spindle-potentiometer on the printed circuit boards D810/1 and
D810/2.
• Check two other temperatures in the range between 40 and 80°C.

4 Failures
A malfunction detected by the PLC leads inevitably to a failure. If this occurs during a running
program a recovery program will be initiated if technically possible. If a failure occurs in
standby it is not possible to start a program until the failure is eliminated.

The current failure is displayed as a red blinking text in the third text line. If there are several
failures simultaneously the current failure can be crossfaded. All failures are listed in the
alarm list. The alarm list can be called via the symbol if there is a failure. Additionally
the alarmlist can always be called from the page by using the key .

The failure messages are printed out on the line recorder in the following format:
12:01 # Error message......

If the optional batch printer is integrated, the failures are printed in the following format:

**FAULT**
Value: xx,x °C
09:43 Error message
**FAULT**

If there is a batch printer the respective current values of the sensors are also printed out if
possible. If there is no batch printer available the customer service technician can connect a
suitable printer at any time (wiring diagram page 110 and 113). Customer service technicians
with PC-knowledge can store the date on their notebooks using the WINDOWS-software
„Hyperterminal“.

If the cause for the failure has been eliminated, opening the chamber door on the loading
side must reset the failure indication in the display.

5 Maintenance Work Hardware
5.1 Exchange of the Buffer Battery PCD2

The PCD2 is charged with a standard non-rechargeable 3.0V-lithium battery.

• Type: CR 2032 (IEC)

With each new PCD2 there is a battery enclosed, which must be inserted before starting up
according to fig. 5.1. SAIA recommends to use only professional types with a capacity of at
least 200 mAh, e. g.:

• WEBECO Art.-No. 032061

The battery must be inserted into the socket that the positive pole and thus the wide edge
are coming to the outer side.

This battery supports the following functions in case of power failures:

• RAM-memory for all program parameters


• RAM-memory for „history data“
• Date - Clock

The duration of a data-backup by the battery depends strongly on the need of current of the
RAM-memory and on the used additional modules (additional memory and F5 module).
When calculating with extreme values between 20. 100 µA, the total buffer duration (PCD2
separated from feeding) is between 1 to 3 years. Auto discharging of the batteries is about
5% per year. These values are related to ambient temperatures of 25°C. At 40°C ambient
temperature the a. m. values are reduced. The LED „Battery“ glows if

• the battery voltage is less than 2V or higher than 3.5V.


• the battery is discharged
• the battery has an interrupt
• the battery is missing

A battery exchange can be performed without the loss of data trouble-free in each mode of
operation (RUN, HALT, STOP) as long as there is voltage at PCD2.

6 Operating the Display EXOR eTOP11EB (Loading Side)
The display eTOP11EB possesses the following characteristics / advantages:

• It can display True type fonts and thus it is also possible to display Chinese
characters.

• Operation without memory card (Smart Media Card) is possible.

• It is only possible to call up the System Menu from defined pages. The user /
customer can no longer gain access to the system area by accidentally pressing a
free space (no touch field) for 5 seconds.

• The system page where date and time are adjusted can be called up by pressing
directly on the displayed time (adaption of user manual!).

To operate the display you need the Software FA100010Top11EB that means version
100.010, or higher is needed. The „new“ display does not work with the software from the
„old“ eTOP11. The SAIA-PLC (EPROM) has to be equipped at least with software version
FA100010.

The application software for the display can be transferred directly via a serial connection or
by inserting a smart media card (memory card) into the display.

The new display (eTOP11EB) can be operated with or without a memory card. In order to
use the display without the memory card, the content can be copied into the internal working
memory (PANEL MEMORY). Then no Smart Media Card is necessary for further operation.

6.1 Designer-Software (Projection Software)

To edit the multilingual FA95-project file and for the correct display of the used character sets
the area schemes for Japan and People’s Republic China must be installed on the PC-
system which is used for the software installation. The files for East Asiatic languages must
be installed under the Region- and Language options in the WINDOWS-System Control. The
proceeding depends on the used operating system. Please ask your system administrator.

The designer software (tool for display software) version 6.05 (02) – Build 45 or higher is
required.

The new, resp. current firmware (operating system of the display) files must be in the
directory. \Exor\Designer6\Firmware\. If new files are available, they must be copied into
the firmware-directory. Firmware version 5.60L or higher is required.

Safety Indications for Work at the


LTSF-Sterilizer FA95 / 130LF

ServiceManual_Englisch_09.doc WEBECO Hygiene in Medizin und Labor 59


Vers. 09 / 09/06
Dangers due to electrical Voltage

the device works with perilous electrical voltages. If maintenance- or repair work is to be
performed at electrical components the device must be switched to zero potential priorily.

The following 5 safety regulations must be complied before beginning the work:

− switch the device to zero potential condition


− protect against switching on again (secure main switch with a padlock, remove the main
fuses and take them with you)
− determine zero potential (with suitable measuring devices, e. g. digital multimeter, not
permitted is an electrical screw driver with internal test lamp)
− ground and pass by
− cover or separate adjoining parts that are under voltage.

Dangers by Sterilization Solution containing Formaldehyde

Formaldehyde belongs to the „dangerous working materials“ and the used 2% sterilization
solution is classified and marked as „injurious to health!

For the contact with the LTSF-sterilization solution for appliance in the WEBECO-LTSF-
sterilizers an EEC safety data sheet has been created according to Guideline 91/155/EEC.

Following points have to be taken into consideration regarding the dangers in contact with
the sterilization solution.

1. Possible Dangers

irritates eyes, respiratory organs and skin

health damage when breathing in, swallowing and when it comes in contact with skin

formaldehyde is classified as tumorigenic, category 3 acc. to Att. I of Ordinance on


hazardous Substances, i. e. it is considered

• as a substance that causes anxiety because of it’s possible tumorigenic effect on human
beings
• as a substance on which there is not yet well enough information for a satisfying
evaluation
• from suitable animal testing there are some clues, but they are not sufficient to classify
the material
• in category ( ...clues that the material may cause cancer)

2. First Aid Measures

2.1 inhaling: Bring the relevant person from the area of exposition to the fresh
air
In case of continuous irritation, visit a doctor.

2.2 skin contact: If necessary remove clothing immediately, rinse skin with much
water.

2.3 eye contact: Upon contact with the eyes rinse them with much water, if
available use eye wash, visit eye specialist.

2.4 swallowing: Drink a copious amount of water afterwards and put yourself into
medical treatment.

3. Measures in Case of accidental Release

3.1 Person-related Precautions:

Do not inhale the vapors, ventilate the room properly.


Avoid eye- and skin-contact.

3.2 Environmental Protection Measures:

Dilute with plenty of water.

3.3 Measures for Cleaning/Absorption

3.3.1 Spillage, Leaking of Solution:

Care for proper ventilation. Dilute with plenty of water. If necessary wear
protective gloves. Absorb spilled solution with sponging paper/cloth or
with liquid absorbing material and dispose it in the sewage system resp.
the domestic waste. Rinse with clear water.

3.3.2 Vapor-/Steam Exhaust at the Sterilizer:

Switch off sterilizer via the main switch. Ventilate the room. Inform the
Technical Service.

4. Exposition Limitation and personal Protection Equipment

4.1 Additional indications for configuration of technical devices:

The use of WEBECO-LTSF-sterilization solution is only permitted in WEBECO


LTSF-sterilizers (Formaldehyde-Gas-Sterilizers). These sterilizers work fully
automatic according to the DIN 58 948 and the TRGS 513.

A work place analysis of TÜV Nord according to TRGS 402 shows that – in case of
proper use of these sterilizers – the MAK value of 0,6 mg/m³ (0,5 ppm) according to
TRGS 900 for Formaldehyde is not reached.

4.2 Constituents with work place related limit values:

CAS-No. Description of the Material Type Limit Value


50-00-0 Formaldehyde MAK 0,6 mg/m³
64-17-5 Ethanol MAK 1.900 mg/m³

4.3 Personal protection equipment:

When transfilling the containers: standard waterproof protective gloves.

If there are possible operation failures during the batch it is automatically switched to a
desorption program. Then, depending on the failure the normal „steam flushing“ as in the
standard program or a „prolonged“ air flushing is performed.

Also during a prolonged air flushing the MAK value is kept as a short-time value. But
because you have to anticipate higher residues in the wrapping the sterile goods must be re-
wrapped before sterilizing again.

Make sure that the pipelines carrying sterilization solution or formaldehyde-containing steam
are depressurized upon opening. In case of assumed emission of sterilization solution were
protective gloves if necessary.

Generally the sterilizer has to be switched off via the main switch in case of steam/gas
emission. Them the room has to be ventilated carefully.

The perceptibility of this error is very good because formaldehyde is perceptible in the
slightest amounts far beyond the permissible limit values.
