The steam sterilizer uses an electric heater to turn water into steam, and sterilizes it after reaching a certain pressure and temperature. In the process of using the steam sterilizer, we still need to pay attention to some points to avoid incomplete sterilization, safety accidents, etc. Generally speaking, the operation of the steam sterilizer requires professional training before it can be operated. After all, it is a pressure vessel. High temperature and high pressure, and sterilization also have a process. Only by operating according to the requirements can the sterilization requirements be achieved. The following mainly introduces the precautions for the use of steam sterilizers.
1. Heating the exhaust, open the exhaust valve when heating the exhaust, otherwise the temperature will be difficult to rise, the purpose is to discharge the cold air in the pot, and the temperature of the cold air will rise faster, and wait for the cold air After cleaning, close the exhaust valve; when the temperature reaches the sterilization temperature, maintain the temperature by adjusting the exhaust valve and the power adjustment switch.
2. Out of the pot, when the sterilization is completed, the temperature will be lowered. At this time, the power must be turned off to make the temperature drop naturally. When the pressure drops to 0, open the exhaust valve and open the lid to take out the sterilized items. Opening the lid under high pressure will cause serious problems. One is that the lid will rush up and the items inside will rush out, causing damage to the items, contamination of the items, and even an explosion, so be sure to pay attention to this The problem cannot be paralyzed.
3. After sterilization, take out the items and put them in the oven to dry to remove the water and avoid pollution. In addition, when the items are placed, it is required to be neat, the bottle mouth is upward, and a gap is reserved. When capping, put the exhaust hose into the exhaust slot of the inner sterilization barrel. When putting on the cover, tighten the bolts symmetrically, and the rubber gasket should be embedded in the groove to prevent air leakage. When opening the lid of the sterilizer, be careful not to bring your face close to prevent the steam from hurting your face. It is best to wear heat-insulating gloves during the operation to avoid burns. You must not leave the steam sterilizer during the operation. If you are not careful, the pressure and temperature will drop, or the pressure and temperature will be too high. These are all things to pay attention to.
Steam sterilizers are very convenient, easy to operate, do not require much maintenance, are resistant to high temperature and high pressure, and some are portable, which is very convenient. When using it, it is still necessary to operate in strict accordance with the requirements, the heat preservation time must meet the requirements, and the operation precautions must be paid attention to to avoid unnecessary trouble. At present, there are many brands and styles of steam sterilizers, and the principles are similar. They are all sterilized by steam. The sterilization effect is very good, and the operation is simple.
