Water is supplied from the city network at a pressure of 0.4 MPa. The autoclave is pre-filled with water to a specified level with the lid open. After immersing the baskets with cans for sterilization, the water level rises to the upper edge of the autoclave. After closing the cover and locking it, the pressure is generated by the supplied compressed air and The water temperature is then increased using an oil burner. Example of a full sterilization cycle for a 175 g can and a pressure of 2.3 Atm. - 75 minutes. (reaching the required process temperature, proper sterilization time, cooling at controlled pressure to 37 °C.
