Yingtai Autoclave: A Key Equipment for Ensuring Medical Safety
In fields such as medical treatment, pharmaceutical manufacturing, and food processing, sterilizers are "invisible guardians" that protect product safety and human health. As a professional manufacturer of sterilizers, we are well aware of their core role in the production chain - eliminating microorganisms through a high-temperature and high-pressure environment to prevent the risk of cross-contamination.
The core principle of a sterilizer is based on the "moist heat sterilization method". When the equipment is started, pure water is injected into the closed chamber and heated to 121°C, while the pressure is maintained at 0.1MPa. This environment can quickly denature the proteins of microorganisms, and even heat-resistant spores can be completely eliminated, making the sterilization efficiency far higher than that of dry heat sterilization. Taking the fully automatic vertical sterilizer commonly used in medical institutions as an example, its operation process has been intelligentized: just set the sterilization temperature, time, and pressure parameters, and the equipment will automatically complete the steps of water intake, heating, pressure maintenance, exhaust, and drying. No manual monitoring is required throughout the process, which not only reduces operational errors but also improves work efficiency.
Daily maintenance is crucial for extending the service life of the sterilizer. After each use, it is necessary to drain the residual water in the chamber in a timely manner and wipe the door seal ring with a soft cloth to prevent scale accumulation from affecting the sealing performance. The accuracy of the safety valve and pressure gauge should be checked weekly to ensure the normal operation of the pressure control components. The drain valve should be disassembled and cleaned monthly to avoid blockage by impurities, which may lead to poor drainage. In addition, it is recommended that professional personnel conduct a comprehensive overhaul every six months, focusing on checking the performance of core components such as heating tubes and temperature control sensors to ensure the equipment is always in the best working condition.
It is worth noting that the demand for sterilizers varies across different industries. The medical industry needs to select sterilizers that comply with the "Regulations on the Supervision and Administration of Medical Devices" to ensure that the sterility level of the instruments after sterilization meets medical standards. The food processing industry, on the other hand, needs to adjust the sterilization parameters according to the characteristics of the products to avoid high temperatures damaging the nutrition and taste of the food. As a manufacturer, we can customize equipment specifications according to the specific needs of customers and provide one-stop services from selection, installation to after-sales maintenance, helping various industries achieve safe and efficient production.
