Metering equipment

Equipment for measuring a specific quantity

Recooling

Cooling the sterilizing chamber and the sterilized
articles after sterilization

Reference flask

Liquid-filled flask, in which the temperature of the liquid is
measured with a temperature sensor

Reference temperature

Temperature at the reference point (e.g. reference
flask) in the sterilizer

To reproduce

To repeat

Septic

Non-sterile, causing disease

Safety Valve

Valve which automatically releases steam or air when the
pressure in the sterilizing chamber becomes too high

Set temperature

The temperature which has to be reached

Steam pot

Device for heating liquids, for maintaining the
temperature of liquids, and for dissolving agar.

Steam release

Removal of steam from the sterilizing chamber

Steam sterilizer

Equipment for carrying out degerming under the effect
of steam

Sterile venting

Venting with decontaminated (sterile) air

To sterilize

To degerm, to eliminate all micro-organisms

Sterilizer

Equipment used for sterilizing

Sterilizing articles

Liquids or solids destined for degerming

Sterilization phases

Parts of a sterilization cycle

Sterilizing temperature

Temperature needed for sterilization

Sterilizing time

Time needed for sterilization

Temperature sensor

Thermometer

Thermally instable

Not stable when heated

Thermolock

Safety feature preventing premature opening of the door.
It is controlled via the reference temperature. The
temperature of the liquid must be below 90 °C before the
sterilizing chamber can be opened.
