<p>The invention relates to an automated installation for sterilizing reusable medical instruments or for sterilizing and crushing hazardous medical wastes. According to the invention, the installation comprises a digital multiprocessor monitoring and control (D) block which controls the installation resources, a steam generator (A), an autoclave (B), a vacuum generating system (Sv), a thermoelectric system (E) for locking and sealing the autoclave doors, the transducers (Tp, Tt) for measuring the pressure and the temperature and a crusher (C), within the installation there being implemented a software comprising the following operations: setting the functioning parameters of the steam generator (A); testing the sealing and locking of the doors - stage P- in the autoclave (B), so as to avoid the risk that toxic substances penetrate into the atmosphere during the process of sterilizing the wastes; detecting the removal of air by a Bowie & Dike test - stage P- during which there is verified if in the autoclave (B) there is still air during the waste sterilization process; setting the parameters for the proper sterilization - stages P- P- of the medical wastes collected in cardboard boxes and bags suitable for various type of hazardous medical wastes and introduced into autoclavation bags or collected in plastic boxes for medical cutting-stinging wastes; the optional setting - stage P- with parameters set by the operator, depending on the nature of the wastes subjected to sterilization; setting and controlling the functioning of the crusher (C) provided with a feed hopper and mechanical hand for the automatic feed with the sterilized wastes extracted from the autoclave (B); controlling the filling out of the infested fluids resulting from the sterilization process in the autoclave and neutralizing the fluids before the removal.</p> |
