For this reason, there have been conventional steam sterilizers that send high-temperature, high-pressure steam into a sterilization IJ container to sterilize objects stored in the sterilization container, and steam sterilizers that use ethylene oxide or formalin instead of steam in the sterilization container. A gas sterilizer that delivers sterilizing gas is used. Among these, gas sterilizers are used when the object to be sterilized is sensitive to heat or the bacteria attached to it are heat-resistant bacteria.

When performing sterilization work using a gas sterilizer configured in this way, the airtight 11 is opened, the object to be sterilized is placed in the sterilization container 2, the airtight lid 1 is closed, and the on-off valve 4.8 is closed. ,
The vacuum pump 11 is operated with the on-off valve 10 open to create a vacuum inside the sterilization container 2, so that the sterilization gas can easily penetrate into the inside of the object to be sterilized. After the inside of the sterilization container 2 is maintained in a vacuum state for a certain period of time, the on-off valve 4 is opened with the on-off valve 8 and 1O closed, and sterilization gas is introduced into the sterilization container 2. After the sterilization gas is supplied until the pressure inside the sterilization container 2 becomes positive, the on-off valve 4 is closed to maintain the pressure inside the sterilization container 2 constant for a predetermined period of time. Once sterilization has been completed for the specified time,
Open the on-off valve 8.10 while keeping the on-off valve 4 closed,
The vacuum pump 11 is operated to exhaust the sterile gas in the sterilization container 2, and sterile air is sent into the sterilization container 2 instead.By continuing to operate the vacuum pump 11 for a predetermined period of time, The sterile gas inside the body 1 is replaced with sterile air,
Since the sterilizing gas adhering to the objects to be sterilized is also removed, the operation of the vacuum pump 11 is stopped, the airtight lid l is opened, and the objects to be sterilized in the sterilization container 2 are taken out.
