However, owing to Malmet (Australia)’s policy of continuous improvement, changes to these specifications may be made at any time without notice on the part of Malmet (Australia).

Design Parameters The cabinet is designed to dry surgical instruments and metalware, respiratory tubes or other tubing, face masks, anaesthetic bags and other ancillary equipment. A total of six (6) stainless steel shelves is provided. The shelves are removable, with 6 positions including the base. The cabinet is insulated with 25mm approved type insulation. Magnetic door latches are fitted with toughened bi-parting glass doors and gasket to ensure effective seal when the doors are closed. All external panels are fabricated from satin finish stainless steel 0.9mm thick, 304/4 type. A centrifugal fan is provided to circulate air throughout the chamber. A solenoid operated damper is provided to allow air to be exhausted from the chamber. An inlet for make up air is provided. The heating bank (located in the air duct leading to the chamber) is controlled by a microprocessor, which can be incremental set to 70°C. The temperature of the air in the chamber is indicated on the controller mounted on the front panel.

Operation, Maintenance and Installation Manual

Section A – Unit Operation NOTE The Drying Cabinet is factory set to 70°C

Before starting the Unit The unit should be run initially on a power supply not protected by an earth leakage circuit breaker for approximately three hours. This will allow any moisture in the heaters to dry out. The unit can then be connected to an earth leakage circuit breaker protected circuit if required. Plug into standard 240V outlet.

Starting the Unit Power ON, the preset temperature of the cabinet appears for approximately five seconds. After five seconds the unit switches to display the actual cabinet temperature.

Changing the set temperature (lock out feature) AUTHORISED PERSONNEL ONLY Authorised operators can change the temperature by holding the up and down temperature buttons at the same time for a total of 5 seconds. The temperature can then be adjusted. The setting will revert back to tamper proof 5 seconds after the temperature is adjusted or if the up and down temperature buttons are not pressed within 5 seconds. The unit has a built in electronic over temperature cut out which will switch off the elements if the selected temperature is exceeded by 5°C, and ‘Ot’ will flash on the display panel. (See Fig 1) Note: This safety cut out is an automatic reset device.
