Abstract: A surface decontamination device (1) for decontaminating outer packagings (2) which contain pre-sterilised consumer goods and have a circumferential collar (3) prior to transfer into an insulator includes a conveyor for conveying the outer packagings (2) in a conveying direction (F) along a conveying path from an inlet side to an outlet side of the device (1). The conveying path passes through a decontamination chamber (5) between the inlet side and outlet side. An irradiation source (6) is associated with the chamber (5) for irradiating the outer packagings (2) conveyed through the chamber (5). The conveying path passes through at least one lock chamber (8) arranged between the inlet side and outlet side, adjacent to the chamber (5) and having an inlet and an outlet, the inlet and outlet being able to be opened and closed by a closer.
