1. load product into the retort chamber and seal the autoclave door.
2. feed water into the sterilizer chamber
3. preset a sterilization temperature and start the heating
4. control the pressure and temperature as per your production requst
5. stop heating after sterilization holding time finished (automatic)
6. pump cold water for cooling
7. unloading the sterilized product and prepare next batch sterilization.
Retort sterilizer can be vertical type and horizontal type. Vertical type is mainly used for the sterilization of small quantity of product, or in a pilot plant.
Function of retort / sterilizer / autoclave
Products such as fish in tin can after sterilization, the shelf life can be 6~12 months according to the sterilization temperature and sterilization holding time used.

This machine use electric as heating medium. Usually operators will heat the product to 121 degree C and hold this temperature under 0.09~0.25Mpa pressure for 10~30 mins. Then stop heating and pumping cooling water into the sterilizer in order to speed up the cooling and increase the working efficiency.
There is a sterilization basket in the sterilization chamber. You put the product which you are going to sterilize in the retort basket and out the basket into the water in the retort sterilizer. Water in the retort sterilizer can be pumped by a pump, also, if you want to save some cost on this retort sterilizer, this water pump can be deleted from the whole set of machine. Manual water inlet is also ok for this small vertical retort.
