Abstract
A thermal disinfection system and a method to perform a thermal disinfection procedure of fluid lines of a medical apparatus are disclosed herein. In an example, the thermal disinfection procedure comprises at least the steps of receiving a temperature signal from a temperature sensor, determining a measured temperature value of a fluid within a hydraulic circuit, receiving a pressure signal from a pressure sensor, determining a measured local atmospheric pressure value, and driving a heating unit to heat the fluid based on the measured temperature value and the measured local atmospheric pressure value.
