PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a steam sterilization device which sterilizes by clean steam, and which can be used even at a facility having a less electric capacity and at a facility on which sufficient steam supply is impossible.SOLUTION: A steam sterilization device comprises: a sterilization tank 11 and a clean steam supply source 2 for generating clean steam V2 by heating and vaporizing pure water W, and supplying the clean steam V2 into the sterilization tank 11. The clean steam supply source 2 comprises, as a heat source for heating and vaporizing the pure water W, a hybrid type heater formed of a vapor heater 221 in which normal vapor V1 is used as a heat medium, and an electric heater 222.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1COPYRIGHT: (C)2016,JPO&INPIT【課題】クリーン蒸気による蒸気滅菌装置において、電気容量が少ない施設や、十分な蒸気供給が不可能となる施設でも使用可能とする。【解決手段】滅菌槽11と、純水Wを加熱・気化させることによりクリーン蒸気V2を発生させると共にこのクリーン蒸気V2を滅菌槽11内へ供給するクリーン蒸気供給源2を備え、クリーン蒸気供給源2に、純水Wを加熱・気化させる熱源として、通常蒸気V1を熱媒とする蒸気ヒータ221と、電気ヒータ222とからなるハイブリッド型ヒータを配設した。【選択図】図1
