ABSTRACT:
A sterilizing cassette system is disclosed. A sealed container (cassette) is provided and configured to receive an article to be sterilized (i.e. a load). A sealing member, such as a plunger, is associated with the cassette at an opening formed in the cassette. An actuating member, such as a motor, is mechanically associated with the sealing member to open and close the sealing member at preselected times during the sterilizing cycle. A control device, such as a microprocessor, is associated with the actuating member to provide signals to the actuator to cause it to actuate the plunger at preselected times in the sterilizing cycle. The actuator is formed integral with the sterilizer so that it can be interchangeably used with multiple load-bearing cassettes. Once the cassette is removed from the sterilizer, it remains in its sealed state until the load is needed, thus mainlining the load in a sterilized condition.
