When using a horizontal steam sterilizer, the primary goal is to eliminate microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses, and spores, from the instruments and materials being sterilized. The “dirt” in this context refers to these microorganisms and any organic or inorganic contaminants. During the sterilization process, high-pressure steam penetrates the items, denaturing proteins and disrupting cell membranes, effectively killing the microorganisms. The contaminants are not physically removed but are rendered inactive and non-viable. After the cycle, the sterilized items are safe for use, and any residue left is typically minimal and non-hazardous.
Ensure the sterilizer meets international standards like ISO 13485 and EN 285 for medical and laboratory equipment.
Schedule routine inspections and servicing to maintain optimal performance and extend the lifespan of the sterilizer.
Follow manufacturer guidelines for loading instruments to ensure effective sterilization and prevent damage to equipment.
Maintain detailed logs of sterilization cycles, including temperature, pressure, and duration, to ensure compliance and traceability.
The life expectancy of a horizontal steam sterilizer can vary depending on several factors, including the quality of the equipment, frequency of use, maintenance practices, and operating conditions. Generally, a well-maintained horizontal steam sterilizer can last anywhere from 8 to 20 years. Regular maintenance, including routine inspections, timely replacement of worn parts, and adherence to manufacturer guidelines, can significantly extend the lifespan of the sterilizer. It’s also important to ensure that the sterilizer is used according to its intended purpose and not subjected to excessive wear and tear. Proper training for operators can further enhance the longevity of the equipment. After the suggested life,customer should follow the local pressure vessel rules to do the necessary testing before continue use.
