The Midmark Ritter M9 autoclave sterilizer can be configured for plug-in or hard- wired connection and requires a 20- ampere circuit breaker. A dedicated electrical circuit is recommended for fault- free operation.
The autoclave's microprocessor- controlled parameters are constantly monitored to assure proper sterilization for each program cycle selected. The controller sequences through the complete cycle at the touch of one of the four icon-marked programs on the Padswitch (e.g., wrapped, unwrapped, paper/plastic pouches, or liquids).
All the Midmark Ritter M9 autoclave’s selections are preset for drying except for the liquids cycle. Upon completion of the sterilization cycle, the unit exhausts and the door automatically opens. Cycle completion is announced by five series of three audible beeps. The display shows "Drying" for the next 30 minutes.

The Ritter M9 autoclave display then shows "Complete." All sterilization parameters (date, time, pressure, and temperature), are digitally displayed and can be recorded with an optional printer. The digital display indicates functioning checks during operation and error codes for testing and trouble shooting. The autoclave sterilizer is UL Listed and ISO 9001 certified.
