[. . . ] Even though there are a variety of alarm codes signaling vacuum related problems, troubleshooting procedures on how to address those issues are similar. Please follow the steps as outlined below in the vacuum alarm troubleshooting flow-chart and the tests on the following pages to solve any vacuum related alarms.

Pressure calibration Access the INFO menu (hidden icon) while the sterilizer is idling (open chamber door) and check the pressure readout at atmospheric conditions: At sea level, the pressure readout should be at 0. 00bar with a tolerance of +0. 02/-0. 04bar, thus the pressure should range from +0. 02 to -0. 04bar. Attention: deduct -0. 01bar for every 100m elevation gain!example 1: the ideal pressure at 500 meter elevation is -0. 05bar with a tolerance of +0. 02/-0. 04bar, thus the pressure should range from -0. 03 to -0. 09bar. example 2: the ideal pressure at 1000 meter elevation is -0. 10bar with a tolerance of +0. 02/0. 04bar, thus the pressure should range from -0. 08 to -0. 14bar. If pressure calibration is off, check or replace the pressure transducer - see alarm A140: "Pressure transducer failure" 2. Door gasket, chamber outlet filter, chamber face side o o o Replace the door gasket (moisten new gasket with water for easier placement) Clean the chamber face side Clean the chamber outlet filter 1 2 3 4 5 3. Condenser and condenser fan Remove the right side sterilizer cover and check if the condenser fan is spinning freely (blocked by a tube?). You can also power the condenser fan through the components test sub-menu. Clean the condenser if necessary. 6-30 LISA 500/300 Service Manual - Rev. 4 Alarm Description Cause Action A190 A310 A320 A321 A330 A380 A390 4. Initiate a vacuum test (ensure that the sterilizer chamber is cold and dry) Depending on the test result, perform tests A-E to find the root cause of the alarm.

Vacuum alarm troubleshooting TEST A vacuum pump Initiate a vacuum test and disconnect the pump approximately 1. 5 minutes into the cycle (prior to P1). Once the pump is disconnected, access the info-menu and observe the pressure readout: if the pressure remains stable, check the vacuum pump: pump performance problem!if the pressure slowly rises, proceed with tests B ­ E: leakage! INITIATE A VACUUM TEST THE PRESSURE IS STABLE AFTER 1. 5 MINUTES DISCONNECT THE PUMP AND CHECK THE PRESSURE READOUT (INFO MENU) CHECK THE VACUUM PUMP ORINGS AND MEMBRANES; REPLACE THEM IF NECESSARY if THE PRESSURE RISES PROCEED WITH TESTS B - E 6-32 LISA 500/300 Service Manual - Rev. 4 Alarm Description Cause Action A190 A310 A320 A321 A330 A380 A390 This test checks if there is a leakage at the one-way valve placed between the water pump and the steam generator, also called ULKA valve.
