C. Equipment installation
Before installation of the equipment, if need，user can provide the equipment model to our
company, to ask for the installation diagram. During the installation process, should be done by
professional personnel under their guidance.

In-standard installation will pose a danger to human life and property, and to prevent
equipment normal, reliable running.
Shinva is not responsible for all the risks that may occur due to in-standard
installation.

1．Preparation and Requirements before Installation

Installation space: The operation and maintenance of the device are considered comprehensively,
and the height of the room is at least 2.9 m. While installing the single leaf sterilizer, the distance
between the rear end and wall should also not be less than 0.5 m.

Foundation: In case of installing above the ground, the surface should be solid and smooth. In
case of installing above the second floor, the user should consider whether needing reinforcing
the floor as the case may be.

Ventilation and Heat Dissipation: In order to guarantee the normal running of the device and the
comfortable working environment better, it is recommended to install a set of appropriate
ventilating system in the working room, so as to control the surrounding ambient temperature
and humidity of the sterilizer. The specific requirements are as follows.

Drainage: Should choose the drainage at least larger than sterilizer configuration drainage orifice
size specifications of a pipe, the drainage tube alone leads to discharged outside the trench, not
with the building drainage pipeline communicated with others (such as cleaning, floor drain),
part of gas will affect or equipment in the working process in the discharge to the other room.

The drainage line should be installed along the outlet of the device from high to low,
without the back pressure; otherwise it will influence the sterilization or drying effects
due to the drainage difficulty of the condensed water.

When multiple devices share a main drainage pipe, the flow of the main drainage pipe
should be more than the sum of the drainage pipe flow as required by each device.

Steam Source (only for connecting to external steam source):

When the equipment only generates the steam by its built-in steam generator, there is no need
of steam source.

The sterilizer takes the steam of the fixed pressure as the sterilizing medium, thus the steam
quality and pressure determine the good or bad effect of the sterilizing effect. The solid particles
and condensed water carried during the steam delivery process should be removed. The steam
source pressure of 0.30 ~ 0.50 MPa should be ensured. The excessively low pressure can not
guarantee the smooth operation of the sterilization program. The excessively high pressure shall
easily turn into the superheated steam, which influences the sterilizing effect.

If the steam source pressure is excessively high (> 0.5 MPa), it is necessary to add the reducing
valve in the delivery line, and guarantee that the steam source pressure fluctuation is not more
than 10%.

The quality index of the steam condensates should meet the requirements in the following table
(this table is from GB 8599-2008, and the contents should be subject to the latest requirements
of this standard).
Table 1 Index Table for Steam Condensates
Items Indexes

Silicon Oxide (SiO2) ≤0.1 mg/l

Iron ≤0.1 mg/l

Cadmium ≤0.005 mg/l

Lead ≤0.05 mg/l

Other heavy metals except for the Iron, ≤0.1 mg/l

Appearance Colorless, clean, no sedimentation

Rigidity (Total quantity of the alkaline metal ≤0.02 mmol/l

ions)
Note: See also Chapter 22 in EN-285:2006 for the test method of the steam quality.

The industrial steam source line is one inch internal thread connection (In case of the
inconformity with the device installation drawing, it should be subject to the device installation
drawing). If the sterilizing device is relatively far away from the boiler, the diameter of the steam
delivery pipe should be increased, and the resistance of the pipe should be reduced. If several
sterilizers use the same steam source line at the same time, the size of the pipe diameter should

-3-
 Installation Manual ST-A001D-004 .R0

be further considered.

When the equipment has dual inlet steam, its pure steam pipeline is connected by a 1 inch
connector.

In order to ensure the normal running of the device, the steam delivery pipeline should adopt the
thermal insulation measures. To observe the supply situation of the steam in due time, it is
necessary to install the steam source valve and a pressure gauge with the range of 0~1 MPa in
the steam source pipeline of the interlayer or inner chamber, so as to be convenient for the
observation and control.

Water Source:

Equipment water usage is divided into two parts, one is for water circulated vacuum pump and
the condenser, another part is supply water to the built-in steam generator, and its connector
dimension is 1/2 inch thread, pressure requirements is: 0.15 ~ 0.3MPa,its flow demands please
see the installation diagram of equipment. During the installation should install valve and a
pressure gauge with range of 0 ~ 0.6MPa on the water inlet pipeline, see attached figure 1. (Note:
if the water pressure is higher than 0.4MPa, it should increase range of the pressure gauge to
ensure its value locates on the 2/3 of full scale while working)

If the water source pressure is lower than 0.1 MPa, the vacuum program cannot start.
Water supplying the steam generator of electric heating sterilizer must be softened
water; otherwise it will affect the life of heating elements and the quality steam.

In order not to affect the work performance of vacuum pump and the condenser, it is
recommended not to use water with too much hardness.

The water supply quality for the equipment built-in steam generator should meet the
requirement in the table below (this table is from GB 8599-2008, and the contents should be
subject to the latest requirements of this standard)

Note: Note: the consistency check of the results should be consistent with the provisions of the
known analytical method.

Compressed Air Source:

The compressed air is used for controlling the cabinet door sealing and the pneumatic valve
configured on the equipment. The pressure of compressed air requirements: 0.5 ~ 0.7MPa. When
the equipment leaves factory, it is equipped with joint, pressure-resistant oxygen pipe and pipe
clamp. While installing, should led the main air supply line to the sterilizer nearby, and install the
check valve, pressure gauge (its range should ensure its value locates on the 2/3 of full scale while
working), and then connect to a connector, oxygen tubes, and clamp to fasten. Another joint is
installed on the compressed air inlet of equipment, connecting to the other end of the oxygen
tubes, and clamp fastening. If there is condition, can also use copper or steel pipe for connection,
but need to ensure that the pipe diameter is≥10mm. If there is no compressed air source, can
choose to buy the oil or oil free compressor with rated pressure ≥ 0.8MPa and rated flow≥ 36 L
/ min supporting the use of single equipment.

A low and mid-grade air compressor will produce some noise during the
working process, and therefore it should be installed outdoors or in a
separated room to the greatest extent. If use oil air compressor, must
periodically clean/replace the filter (at least once per three month), other
wise it will affect the normal work of the valve.

 Power Source:
It is required that the power switch box is had better installed on the wall in the right
side or back side of the sterilizer. In the switch box it must be equipped with a three- phase
load switch or a breaker and a single phase load switch, detailed parameter please see the
