Description of the Sterilization Cycle Stages
Air-removal stage:
Pre vacuum pulses are performed. For wrapped
cycles, there are 2-3 pulses and the vacuum are deeper.
Heating stage:
steam is inserted into the chamber until the sterilization
temperature is reached
Sterilization:
sterilization temperature is maintained constant during
the sterilization time.
Fast exhaust:
steam is exhausted out of the chamber at a fast rate
until pressure decreases to ambient
pressure.
Drying:
performed with the door closed by pulling vacuum and using the
accumulated heat in
the chamber and the load to
remove leftover
moisture from the instruments and wraps.

Description of the Vacuum Test Stages
Vacuum is produced in the chamber, down to P1=2.17 psi (15 kPa.) At this
stage all the valves close. The autoclave remains in this stage for 5 minutes.
This period enables the condition in the chamber to reach equilibrium. After the
5 minutes have elapsed, the
cycle
‘history record’
records the pressure that is
referred to as P2. At this point the test begins and lasts 10 minutes. At the end
of the test, the
cycle
‘history record’
records the results. The pressure at the
end of the test is referred to as P3.
Notes:
During the test period the autoclave is not heated. Even if the vacuum
test is completed, the operator shall check the test results and consider
whether the test results are acceptable or not.
