Question
Answer
1
(#49 on the previous Q&A) The specification calls for the 12 autoclaves (LOG) is for 316L SS chamber and 304L SS jackets. If the vendor offers the same warranty and performance on a 316L SS chamber with carbon steel jackets, is that acceptable? Cost savings would be seen across 12 sterilizers if carbon steel jackets are allowed.
(Revised Answer) No, carbon steel jackets are not acceptable.

We noticed that the vacuum pump for the bulk autoclave (Room GE 01) has a 3 phase power tag on it but in the questions/answers (answer 34) it indicated that there is no 3-phase power, can you please confirm the power phase being supplied to this room?

The sterilizer that is there is a 120v single phase unit. The box on the left. The vacuum pump for the sterilizer is 3 phase power. The box on the right. All bulk sterilizers will have this vacuum pump.
