Is there any advice at all you have for a chamber that floods when the autoclave door opens and then the panel says "water low"? It keeps gushing water out the front when we open the autoclave door. Thank you!
without seeing the unit, I'd have to surmise that your water level sensor is dirty, or malfunctioning. the midmark sterilizers use a continuity circuit to detect when there is the right amount of water in the chamber. water low is because all of your water is in the chamber, (and floor?)
How do you actually remove the sensor from the autoclave? I have the nut loose, but it only loosens so much and wants to stay on the part where the nut threads onto. I can turn the sensor inside the chamber, but it won’t come out. EDIT - I got it!
once you remove the compression nut, it can be pulled out from inside of the chamber. If you'e is stuck, give it some more force, perhaps a pair of needle nose in a prying method, or channel locks
@@The_Biomed thanks! Having never done this before, I wasn't sure how much force I needed to get the compression nut off the nylon tube so I was being overly cautious at first.
@Pitmaster_GoldenShellback no problem, it's just brass so being weary was the right move. I keep stock of multiple sizes and ferrels just in case. They do strip and warp easily.
Thank you so much! I know it may not be popular category but im glad you made the video!
Glad you liked it! If we understand theory of the device, how everything works, then it makes troubleshooting a breeze

Show us the instalation. Thanks
asked and answered. I've uploaded an installation video for you
