New clarification added: Question: A3 mentions that Maximum power not greater than 7.5KW. Please advise why there is this limit? What is the implication of offering a higher power autoclave (e.g. 8 or 9KW) which is both efficient and effective at sterlisation? Usually lower power will mean longer time for cycle and harder/longer for autoclave to keep temperature steady to complete sterlisation cycle in an effective manner.Answer: The requirement about power is limited by local power supply capacity.Question:B9 now requires the sterilisation trays to integrated valve system. The integrated valve system is a special requirement compared to normal trays. Why is this required? Is there any change in substance or material of items to be sterlised? A5 remains unchanged ie. porous solids and wrapped loads.B1 is requesting stainless steel wire baskets and tray holder. Whereas B9 is requesting Alumininium sterlisation trays. Has B9 superceded B1 and we can ignore B1? Or we have to offer both?Answer: Both B1 and B9 are requested, B9 has been specifically requested by the beneficiary to reduce end cycle moisture
