All,
Please see the message from Jaclyn Casey regarding the 4th floor sterilizer.
we can use the workaround until the parts come in, but she was able to replicate the error message we were receiving due to the fact that the unit was not drawing a sufficient vacuum to complete the sterilization during the trash cycle.
She'll be back Wednesday to complete the repair.

I have parts ordered and should be back Wednesday, there wasn’t any extra valves at the chemistry building. Until then, just use the gravity or liquid cycles; don’t use prevac or the trash cycle. The gravity cycle settings can be adjusted for a longer sterilization time of you need to extend the exposure for the lab trash from 5 to 20 mins until I can come back. Let me know if you have any questions or give me a call.
