ABSTRACT:
Medical instruments, including stainless steel, plastic tubing, and the like, are sterilized in a portable apparatus that provides a low volume, high pressure flow of continuously circulating water containing about 2 to 6 ppm of ozone. The portable apparatus includes a housing having an open chamber for containing medical instruments. Within the housing are a high voltage transformer, an ozone generator, and a high pressure, low volume pump for circulating ozonated water. A lid for the chamber is provided with carbon substantially to preclude ozone from escaping from the chamber into the atmosphere outside the housing. The lid includes a safety switch so that the apparatus will not operate unless the lid is in place.
