The idea
A sterilizer load is arranged so the sterilant can circulate freely around every item.
In practice
Perforated trays lie flat, parallel to the shelf; basins and other nonperforated containers stand on edge; peel packs stand on edge in baskets.
Where people slip
An overpacked chamber leaves cold spots where steam cannot reach.
