Sub Atmospheric Cycle

This cycle operates only in negative pressure and is therefore classed as a sub atmospheric cycle.

The number of vacuum and steam pulses depend on the density of the load and this cycle may utilise 10 to 13 vacuum and steam pulses during the four minute conditioning phase of the cycle, before going into the pre-heat phase prior to the holding time.

This cycle is very effective for air removal and steam penetration into the inside of hollow and/or complex instruments.
