The invention relates to the technical field of sterilization equipment, in particular to a
vacuum tube type steam sterilizer and a sterilization method thereof. The
vacuum tube type steam sterilizer comprises a sterilizer body, the sterilizer body is fixedly arranged on a rack, a platform or a floor through a support, a rock
wool heat preservation layer is arranged in the sterilizer body, the outermost side of the sterilizer body is wrapped with 304 stainless steel, the sterilizer body is provided with an inner container, the inner container is higher than the upper end of the 304 stainless steel and lower than the lower end of the 304 stainless steel, cover plates are arranged at the upper end and the lower end of the inner container, holes are formed in the cover plates, and material pipes penetrate through the cover plates; a pressure-bearing loose joint and a feed port are welded at the starting end of each material
pipe, and a pressure-bearing loose joint and a
discharge port are welded at the
tail end of each material
pipe; and the pressure-bearing loose joint is welded with a 180-degree
elbow, so that the material pipes communicate up and down in an S shape, and the sterilizer is also provided with an exhaust hole, a water outlet and a vacuumizing opening. According to the
vacuum tube type steam sterilizer, low-temperature vacuum
steam sterilization of thick materials is realized, the problems of
rubber mat failure of a plate type sterilizer and local overheating of a tubular sterilizer are avoided, and the continuous working time is long.
