A negative pressure is created in the sterilization chamber by the vacuum power system. Then, the transfer valve is opened, and the vaporized sterilizing agent in the evaporator is delivered to the sterilization chamber. After a certain time, such as 300 seconds, the transfer valve is closed. After the sterilizing agent enters the sterilization chamber, it begins to sterilize the items inside. After maintaining this pressure for a certain time, such as 400 seconds, the return air valve is opened to balance the pressure. Subsequently, the vacuum power system and the return control system are used to control the pressure fluctuations in the sterilization chamber. Then, the gas is discharged outside the sterilization chamber and re-enters clean air through the return air valve to remove residual hydrogen peroxide. An oil-gas separator and a deodorization device are installed at the outlet of the vacuum power system. The oil-gas separator is used to separate the oil vapor molecules and hydrogen peroxide mixture from the vacuum pump, separating the oil and gas into liquid, which is then returned to the vacuum pump through the return oil pipeline for recycling.
2. The management and traceability method for the multi-cabinet hydrogen peroxide low-temperature plasma sterilizer according to claim 1, characterized in that, include: The sterilization package is scanned by the first scanning system to obtain the first information of the sterilization package. The first information includes the name of the sterilization package, the purpose of the sterilization package, the packaging time of the sterilization package, and the packaging personnel of the sterilization package. The collected first information is entered into the server. The entered first information is filtered and judged by the data terminal. The filtered and judged information is recorded as the second information. A corresponding barcode is generated based on the second information. The barcode is associated with the device's preset sterilization parameters, the sterilization parameters corresponding to the barcode are bound, and the binding information is archived. The system calls upon the archived information to control the multi-cabinet hydrogen peroxide low-temperature plasma sterilizer to sterilize the sterilization package and generates the first barcode after the operation is completed. The system determines whether the first barcode meets the sterilization quality standards. If it does, it stores the barcode in the terminal for registration. If it does not meet the standards, it sends a signal to the terminal to continue sterilization for further processing.
3. The management and traceability method for a multi-cabinet hydrogen peroxide low-temperature plasma sterilizer according to claim 2, characterized in that, The determination of whether the first barcode meets the sterilization quality standard includes gas monitoring of the environment in which the sterilization package is located. The process includes: collecting gas information of the environment in which the sterilization package is located and sending the collected gas information to the sterilizer for processing; if it meets the processing standard, the next step of sterilization quality standard testing is carried out; if it does not meet the processing standard, an alarm is issued and the terminal receives the alarm and uploads the data to the cloud platform.
