Steam Sterilizer or Steam Pasteurizer? We offer two different technologies of decontamination systems commonly referred to as “steam sterilizers” and “steam pasteurizers”. The main difference is that “sterilizers” do their work in closed pressure vessels (autoclave) at up to 45 PSI (3 bar) and “pasteurizers” work at atmospheric pressure with super-heated steam. The selection of the appropriate technology depends on the size of the product itself and the type of pathogens to be eliminated. We offer some standard sizes of sterilizers and pasteurizers to span the range of commonly some standard...

Ventilex Continuous High Pressure Sterilizer (Autoclave) The time, pressure, and steam temperature within the chamber is tightly regulated such that the minimum amount of each required to achieve the desired kill is applied. Afterward, in the dryer the temperature is tightly controlled so that the product is returned to a precise moisture level. In this way, the final moisture content can be specified and controlled to maximize yield. We understand how critical temperature, treatment time, and pressure are when decontaminating a product. All three of these parameters can be set individually depending...
