When your Midmark M9 or M11 Autoclave Displays Error “Code C983 Heat Up Mode High Limit Thermostat,” it is telling
you that one or both of the high limit thermostats is in an “Open” State.

What this means is there is a High Limit Thermostat on your autoclave that is failing and blocking power from going on to the
other components of the autoclave. This is what is triggering the Error Code C983.

What you need to understand is, the PC Board directs all power to the other components (except the fan) in your Midmark
autoclave….through the High Limit Thermostats (there are 2 in your Midmark Autoclave if you are getting this error code).

And since the power cannot go any further, your Midmark autoclave is basically dead until you fix it.

While this type of autoclave repair may conjure up images of special skills, special equipment and tools, etc. the truth is…..it is a fairly
simple and inexpensive procedure (Note: It is only inexpensive if you make the repair yourself!) And no special tools or skills are required

Ps. Be sure to download the Free Midmark M7 Autoclave Factory Service Manual. It’s the real thing and the one technicans world-wide use.

Your Midmark M7 Autoclave heats up to somewhere over 200 degrees F and suddenly the heat & pressure drops – and the autoclave shuts itself down.

Sometimes you can restart it immediately & sometimes you have to wait for it to cool down.

This is a very common problem with the Midmark M7 Autoclave.

What’s’ the problem?

The most common cause is the vent valve is stuck, allowing water to return to the reservoir during the sterilize cycle.

As the water is returned to the reservoir; the chamber runs dry, the safety switches are activated and your Midmark M7 Autoclave shuts it’s self down automatically.

Pressure cannot occur in your Midmark M7 autoclave because, with the vent valve stuck open, the chamber is not sealed.

To confirm the vent valve is the source of the problem, listen for “gurgling” sounds coming from the reservoir during the sterilization cycle.

Also, when you open the door on your Midmark M7 autoclave, you will find a mostly dry chamber, even though the autoclave shut itself down prior to the vent cycle.

There can be times you are met with a wall of water when you open the door, instead of a dry chamber. This means water is being allowed to flow in both directions, not a good thing.

Either way, you must repair the valve.

The good news is, you do not have to replace the entire valve. There are rebuild kits available for the Midmark M7 Autoclave, which are very inexpensive.

The procedures to repair your Midmark M7 autoclave require no special tools and is something you can do.

As a temporary fix, you can try removing the vent valve and cleaning the port, the stem and the o-rings to remove any debris. This may allow your Midmark M7 Autoclave to function until you get the vent valve rebuild kit and perform the repair
