STERILIZATION CONTAINER WITH BATTERY POWERED SENSOR MODULE FOR MONITORING THE ENVIRONMENT IN THE CONTAINER

摘要

A sterilization container with a sensor module for monitoring the environmental characteristics internal to the container. The sensor module includes a normally closed end bore. A sensor is disposed in the closed end void space. Other sensors also part of the module monitor the pressure and temperature of the environment inside the container. Based on the measurements of the environment in the container and the environment within the closed end void space it is possible to determine the extent to which the container is filled with saturated steam.
