The principle of steam air sterilizer is to sterilize microorganisms in the air through high-temperature and high-pressure steam. Specifically, steam air sterilizer uses the penetration and latent heat effect of high-temperature steam to kill bacteria, viruses and other microorganisms in the air.
Working Principle
Steam Generation: There is a heating system inside the steam air sterilizer, which generates steam by heating. When the steam is generated, it will enter a closed environment, such as a room or inside a device.
Steam Injection: High-temperature and high-pressure steam is directly sprayed onto microorganisms in the air through an injection device. After the steam contacts the microorganisms in the air, it releases latent heat, causing the protein of the microorganism to coagulate and denature, thereby achieving the sterilization effect.
Temperature Control: Usually, steam air sterilizers operate in a closed environment, and the temperature and pressure of the steam are controlled to ensure the best sterilization effect. Generally speaking, a temperature of more than 121°C and maintained for a certain period of time can effectively kill most microorganisms.
