The present invention relates to a sterilisation and disinfection apparatus. In particular, the present invention relates to a sterilisation and disinfection apparatus for surgical equipment. Thus preferred embodiments may have a number of advantages over the prior art which can include: reduced risk of spillage of the sterilisation fluid outside the sterilisation apparatus; reduced risk of contamination of the equipment after sterilisation through inadvertent contact with the equipment by the user; economy of use of the sterilisation fluid; improved convenience of transport and storage of sterilised equipment in the sterilisation apparatus; automatic override procedure to reduce the risk of overexposure of the equipment to the sterilisation fluid if the correct sterilisation cycle is not followed; automatic control of contact time of the equipment with the sterilisation fluid to avoid over processing and resultant damage; and data logging to provide traceability of the previous sterilisation cycles used. |
