Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1. What is an autoclave used for?
Autoclaves sterilize medical instruments, labware, and waste using high-pressure steam to eliminate all microbial life.

2. How does an autoclave work?
It uses moist heat under pressure to raise the boiling point of water, allowing steam to penetrate and kill microorganisms.

3. What types of autoclaves are available?
Angelus Medical offers gravity displacement, pre-vacuum, tabletop, and large-capacity autoclaves.

4. Are autoclaves safe for all materials?
They’re ideal for heat-resistant items like stainless steel, glass, and certain plastics. Heat-sensitive items may require alternative methods.

5. What temperature do autoclaves reach?
Most operate at 121°C to 134°C depending on the cycle and load type.

6. How long does a sterilization cycle take?
Typical cycles range from 15 to 30 minutes, plus drying time.

7. Can autoclaves sterilize liquids?
Yes, but only in models designed for liquid cycles with proper venting and cooling phases.

8. Are autoclaves environmentally friendly?
Yes. Steam sterilization produces no toxic byproducts and uses minimal resources.

9. What is the difference between gravity and vacuum autoclaves?
Gravity autoclaves displace air with steam; vacuum autoclaves remove air using a pump for deeper penetration.

10. Do autoclaves require regular maintenance?
Yes. Routine cleaning, calibration, and inspection ensure safe and effective operation.

11. Can autoclaves sterilize wrapped instruments?
Vacuum autoclaves are ideal for wrapped and porous items; gravity models are better for unwrapped tools.

12. What safety features are included?
Pressure relief valves, locking doors, and temperature sensors protect users and equipment.

13. Are autoclaves compliant with medical standards?
Angelus Medical autoclaves meet ANSI/AAMI ST79 and CDC sterilization guidelines.
