<p>The present invention relates to a multi-treatment sterilization device (1) for sterilizing closures. The device comprises a container (2) for multi-treatment, a pump (3) to provide a liquid flow in the container (2) The device (1) is arranged to introduce liquid to the container to a predetermined level wherein the closures are submerged in liquid in the container (2) during sterilization. The container (2) comprises an inlet portion (4) associated with the pump (3) for providing said liquid flow and an outlet portion (5) for receiving the liquid flow. The pump (3) is adapted in such a way that said liquid flow is directed in a predetermined direction to reduce the contact forces between said closures. The invention also relates to a method and a multi-treatment sterilizing system. The apparatus and method for sterilising caps/stoppers for pharmaceutical purposes comprises a vessel, pump, heater, circulation line. The sterilising liquid (hot water, steam) is heated and pumped to the vessel where a fluidised bed of caps etc. is generated. After leaving the vessel the liquid is circulated/heated. Optionally an additive (siliconisation in case rubber parts) or cooling liquid is added. Further, the vessel is disconnectably attached to the supply lines for transportation to a production facility.</p> |
