PURPOSE: Provided are a device and a method for delivering and metering a fixed volume of liquid, such as liquid sterilant from a container into a vaporization system, wherein the metering system maintains a slow, controlled flow in order to achieve efficient vaporization of the liquid. CONSTITUTION: The method for delivering a fixed volume of liquid comprises the steps of i) determining whether the liquid in the accumulator(20) satisfies a first pre-defined specification or not, ii) generating a signal prompting the loading of the container(9) into the container delivery system, iii) releasing the container delivery system to accept the loading of the container into the container delivery system, iv) loading the container into the container delivery system, v) closing the container delivery system, vi) locking the container delivery system to secure the container in the container delivery system, and vii) delivering the liquid from the container into the accumulator. The device comprises a container(9), accumulator(20), the first sensor, the first supply tool, the second tool, releasing tool, and locking tool.
