Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method of controlling a steam sterilizer system comprising a boiler in which liquid water is turned into steam. Water is pumped from a container and the pumped water is passed through a degassing filter located upstream of the boiler in order to remove non-condensable gases (NCGs) dissolved in the water. The water is recirculated through the degassing filter for additional removal of NCGs, while water is prevented from flowing from the degassing filter to the boiler. Subsequently to recirculating the water through the degassing filter, at least a portion of the water is passed to the boiler. The present disclosure also relates to a control unit for performing the steps of the method, and to a steam sterilizing system comprising such a control unit.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a system (1) comprising —a device (3) for washing, disinfecting and/or sterilizing medical, dental, laboratory and/or pharmaceutical goods, and —a parameter determining unit (13, 23) adapted to determine a value indicative of a parameter of the medium dedicated to the device before or when being supplied to the device (3). The present disclosure also relates to a process for supply of a medium to the system (1).

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method for guiding a user to intervene in an on-going process in a device (100) for washing, disinfecting, drying and/or sterilizing medical, dental, laboratory and/or pharmaceutical goods. The device comprises a chamber (140) for receiving the goods, at least one openable door (150) associated with the chamber (140), and at least one display (130). The method comprises receiving (301) input from the user indicating an intention to intervene in the on-going process; pausing (302) the on-going process in a current process state; and displaying (304), on the display, a plurality of selectable graphical interactive user-interface objects comprising a first object (201) associated with confirming aborting the on-going process.

Abstract: The invention discloses a sterilization device (1), to sterilize media, equipment and/or decontamination of waste material, said sterilization device (1) comprising a chamber (2), at least one exhaust line (6) arranged to said chamber (2) and at least one gas generator arranged to said chamber (2), at least two sterile filters (8a, 8b) arranged in series in the exhaust line (6), at least one vacuum means (7) connected to the chamber (2) via said exhaust line (6) and said at least two filters (8a, 8b). At least one heating means (9) is arranged to said exhaust line (6) between said two sterile filters (8a, 8b) in order to vaporize condensate that develops between the filters. Furthermore, it is disclosed a sterilization process for sterilization of media, equipment and/or decontamination of waste material, a vaporizing system (12) of a sterilization device and use of such a vaporizing system (12) in a sterilization device.

Abstract: The apparatus and method for sterilising caps/stoppers for pharmaceutical purposes comprises a vessel, pump, heater, circulation line. The sterilising liquid (hot water, steam) is heated and pumped to the vessel where a fluidised bed of caps etc. is generated. After leaving the vessel the liquid is circulated/heated. Optionally an additive (siliconisation in case rubber parts) or cooling liquid is added. Further, the vessel is disconnectably attached to the supply lines for transportation to a production facility.
