Sterilization第 37 / 100 题
A mixed load contains wrapped metal basin sets and textile packs. How should the load be arranged?
a.Place metal and basin items on the lower shelves and textile packs on the upper shelves
b.Place textile packs on the bottom so metal weight does not crush them
c.Alternate metal and textile items on every shelf for even heat distribution
d.Place all items on a single shelf so the load remains compact
解析
Condensate forms on and drips from metal items, so putting them low keeps that moisture off absorbent textile packs and prevents wet packs. Placing textiles beneath metal is the classic cause of soaked wrappers. Alternating or compacting the load restricts steam circulation and creates cold spots, and items should never be packed tightly against each other or the chamber walls.
