What is an autoclave sterilizer machine?

The autoclave, steam sterilizer, or sterilization machine is a sealed container used to achieve sterility or disinfection for utensils. It is performed at a temperature of about 121°C to 134°C for 15 to 20 min under a pressure range of approximately 45 psi to 50 psi. These autoclaves can kill viruses, spores, bacteria, and fungi that live on stored equipment by using confined pressures.

How Does an Autoclave Work?

Most clinical laboratories use an autoclave/steamed sterilizer, which works by exposing items to steam pressure.

Autoclaves or steam sterilizers work using two main methods, which include gravity displacement and pre-vacuum sterilization. Some autoclaves use both methods together for better sterilization over the years.

When an item or material needs to be sterilized, it is placed into an autoclave, and the top of the equipment is closed. Then air is removed from the vessel in one of two ways: through vacuuming or subjecting it to reverse pressure. A vessel with steam uses a gravity displacement unit to force out air within it, hence creating a vacuum. Pre-vacuum design involves negative gauge readings being obtained before switching off the vacuum pump when air has been removed from the plane by the vacuum pump. Once the chamber has been purged of air content, it gets filled up with high-heat steam so as to raise the temperature further inside. At this point, constant flow of steam maintains a set temperature throughout the vessel until the required set temperature is achieved.

Stages in the process of sterilization

There are three phases of the process:

Purge Phase: This is because forced convection causes steam to be introduced into the chamber instead of the air that is present in the chamber. To maintain a thorough purge, pressure and temperature will be slightly adjusted upwards, thereby enhancing flow rate.
Exposure Phase: Autoclave Control System—Sterilization Phase: When gases fill the structure of an autoclave together with temperature and pressure reaches a certain level, the exhaust valve is programmed to close so that the inside chamber remains optimally heated or cooled for the necessary time before the outside chamber cools or heats it.
Exhaust Phase: Pressure is released from the chamber through an exhaust valve, and the interior returns towards ambient pressure (although contents remain relatively hot).

Temperature Range and Time Necessary for Autoclave Sanitization

The heat involved in the autoclave sterilization process should be 121 °C, but some equipment or items may need up to 134 °C. Medical equipment requires a temperature range of 70-90°C, hence taking 3 to 4 minutes for sterilization, though if medical equipment has material, it can take up to 15-20 minutes.

The following are the parts of a typical laboratory autoclave:

Vessel: An autoclave has two main parts: the inner chamber and the outer space. In hospitals and labs, they use jacketed chambers, which consume more steam for faster sterilization. The inner chamber can be made of 316L stainless steel material or nickel-clad, while the outer jackets may be either carbon steel jackets or 304L or 316L jackets. Vessel sizes used in hospitals range between 100 and 3000 liters.
Control System: There are mainly two types of control systems for autoclaves; apart from this, there are three categories of ECs, which are Basic EC and Advanced EC. A more complex elevator control system may be designed by a programmable logic controller in a touch screen, but a simple one may have a push button and microprocessor.
Thermostatic Trap: Also known as a steam trap, it allows free exhaust of water together with air from inside, thus improving operation.
Safety Valve: These are essential safety devices fitted on all autoclaves; they ensure that even under high pressure, the equipment operates safely.
Waste-Water Cooling Mechanism: Waste water cooling systems can sometimes be found within an autoclave system itself, which cools down air as well as steam before draining through the piping system.
