摘要:
A method for control of a process for sterilizing a load in a sterilization chamber according to specific characteristics of the load without direct measurement of the load conditions. The method preferably includes admitting sterilant gas into the sterilization chamber under vacuum; during admission of the sterilant gas, monitoring a sterilant condensation related parameter or data in the sterilization chamber; detecting the occurrence of condensation and determining a value of the condensation related parameter while detecting condensation; selecting a sterilization cycle among a plurality of predetermined sterilization cycles according to the condensation related data; and performing the selected sterilization cycle for sterilizing the load. The condensation related data may be the sterilant dew point, a degree of condensation, or an amount of condensation which may be determined in monitoring the chamber pressure during sterilant gas admission. The sterilization process may be controlled dynamically according to the determined condensation related data.
