<p>The present invention discloses an autoclave having an air detection circuit for use in detecting whether a pre-determined volume of air is present in a sample of steam wherein the autoclave comprises a chamber and a vacuum pump and wherein the air detection circuit is operatively connectable to the chamber and comprises:
an air detector having a separator for separating air from the sample of steam and a sensor for detecting whether the separated air has a predetermined volume;
wherein the autoclave is arranged such that the air detection circuit is operatively connectable to the vacuum pump such that the vacuum pump can be used to empty the air detection circuit. The present invention further relates to a method of detecting whether a pre-determined volume of air is present in a sample of steam.
