MUST spore test every load.

The Stove Top Sterilizer requires a separate heat source.
6" Small Hot Plates do not generate enough heat.
It should also be noted that metal-to-metal seal (meaning no separate gaskets) the top must be uniformly tightened working around and around little by little to prevent warping.
All autoclaves are pre-tested. Warped Tops that leak will not be replaced because this condition is caused by improper tightening of the sealing knobs causing warping.

Please note: It is required to spore test new and repaired sterilizers before being put into service.

Sterility assurance means: Repeated spore testing consistently produces negative results.

If a spore test failed, it means everything sterilized prior to the failed test and after the last successful test may be non-sterile and must be re-packaged and re-sterilized.

It makes sense not to use any sterilized item until a spore test validates it. This means the newly sterilized items are held in quarantine until the spore testing is done, weekly, daily or monthly.

A failed spore test requires the re-sterilization of everything processed since the last successful spore test.
