Frequently asked questions
How many pre-set sterilization programs are included?
The Tuttnauer 3870EA features three pre-set sterilization programs that are easily accessible via the single-touch control system. These programs provide flexibility for different types of loads:
- Unwrapped instruments
- Wrapped instruments and porous loads
- Glassware
Does the Tuttnauer 3870EA have a drying cycle?
Yes, the Tuttnauer 3870EA features a closed-door active drying system. This system helps maintain sterility and ensures efficient drying of packs and pouches, so instruments are ready for immediate use after the cycle.
What are the key safety and monitoring features?
The Tuttnauer 3870EA incorporates several critical safety and monitoring features to ensure reliable and compliant sterilization cycles:
- Interdependent Monitoring: The system continuously monitors both temperature and pressure to guarantee precise control over the sterilization process.
- Insufficient Water Detector: An automatic shut-off feature activates if insufficient water is detected, protecting the unit from potential damage.
- Power Failure Recovery: The system includes cycle information recovery functionality, maintaining data integrity and process continuity in the event of a power interruption.
- Durable Construction: The chamber and door are built with a long-life, electro-polished material designed for enduring safety and reliability under high-pressure steam.
What are the chamber and overall dimensions?
The Tuttnauer 3870EA is a high-capacity unit with a large chamber volume of 22 gallons (85 L), designed to accommodate up to 15 full-size IMS cassettes.
For installation and planning, here are the critical dimensions:
| Component | US Imperial (Inches) | Metric (Millimeters) |
|---|---|---|
| Chamber (Diameter x Depth) | 15” x 30” | 384 mm x 760 mm |
| Overall Unit (D x W x H) | 34.5” x 26” x 20.6” | 875 mm x 665 mm x 525 mm |
The unit includes two trays for instrument organization:
- Tray 1: 26.6” (D) x 11.3” (W) x 1” (H)
- Tray 2: 26.6” (D) x 13.8” (W) x 1” (H)
What electrical connection is required?
The Tuttnauer 3870EA operates using a standard 230 V plug and requires no additional plumbing, which simplifies installation.
However, given the 3000 W power consumption, it is highly recommended to consult with an electrician for the installation of a box booster. This helps manage potential voltage fluctuations and ensures the autoclave operates reliably.
Key electrical specifications are:
| Specification | Value |
|---|---|
| Voltage | 230 V |
| Frequency | 50/60 Hz |
| Power Consumption | 3000 W |
| Current Draw | 13.6 A |
What essential accessories come included with this autoclave?
The Tuttnauer 3870EA Autoclave comes ready for operation with the following essential components:
- Main autoclave unit
- Support stand
- Power cable
- Two instrument trays: Specifically sized for the 15” x 30” chamber.
- Integrated printer: Included on specific models, along with one roll of chart recording paper for hard-copy cycle documentation.
To ensure the longevity of your machine, it is recommended to pair it with accessories such as pouch racks and use Chamber Brite autoclave cleaner for routine maintenance.
Is an integrated documentation printer available?
Yes, the Tuttnauer 3870EA Autoclave is available with an optional integrated printer for comprehensive cycle documentation.
This feature allows facilities to maintain strict records by automatically documenting the following parameters for every cycle:
- Date and time
- Temperature and pressure readings
- System messages and alerts
Opting for the integrated printer provides essential cycle traceability, which is crucial for compliance in high-volume settings.
Is this large capacity sterilizer suitable for clinics?
The Tuttnauer 3870EA is specifically designed for environments with high-volume sterilization needs due to its substantial 22-gallon (85 L) capacity, which can accommodate up to 15 full-size IMS cassettes.
This makes it an ideal fit for:
- Multi-practitioner offices and group practices
- Busy emergency clinics and veterinary facilities
- Surgery centers and small hospital settings
- Nursing homes
It is engineered to support the sterilization requirements of any facility needing to process long instruments or large volumes of smaller items efficiently.
Does this autoclave use a replaceable HEPA air filter?
Yes, the Tuttnauer 3870EA utilizes a 0.2 μm HEPA air filter as part of its closed-door active drying system.
This filter is crucial for ensuring that the air introduced into the chamber during the drying cycle is clean and sterile. Importantly, the HEPA air filter is replaceable, which allows you to maintain optimal performance and sterilization integrity throughout the unit’s lifespan.
Does the electro-polished chamber ensure durability?
Yes, the Tuttnauer 3870EA is constructed with an electro-polished chamber and door designed for enhanced longevity and durability, making it suitable for demanding clinical environments.
