ABSTRACT:
A method of operating a washer-sterilizer comprises the steps of: loading a chamber with items to be washed; filling the chamber to a predetermined level with a washing fluid; controllably injecting a steam or an air steam mixture into the chamber during the filling of the chamber with the washing fluid, the steam being injected in a turbulent manner to create a washing action and to begin heating the washing fluid; and continually injecting steam into the chamber after the chamber is filled to the predetermined level so as to subject the items to a washing action. After the washing phase, the chamber is drained, the items are rinsed, and the chamber is drained again. A unique piping arrangement is also disclosed.
