Chemical multi-parameter tests for sterilization STEAM
Multi-parameter chemical indicators for controlling the sterilization process of steam are made in the form of a paper strip with a perforation, on which a test substance of blue color is applied. Class 4 chemical indicator reacts to two or more variables of critical parameters of the sterilization process
steam. The response time of the indicator is controlled by a precisely selected, non-toxic chemical composition that is free of lead and other liquid metals. After a correct process, there is a color change from blue to black, in the temperature range: 121°C - 134°C and a time of 20 min. - 3.5 min.
The indicators are suitable for use in packages containing, among others, metal tools, porous materials, rubber, plastics and cotton linen. Size of the whole pointer: 1.7 cm x 20.5 cm, after parting: 1.7 cm x 10.25 cm. Information about the class of the test according to the standards is placed on each pointer and packaging.
Method of use and reading the results:
If representative packages are not used in the control procedure, the SIL-250 indicator should be used not only in each cycle, but also in each sterilized package. The chemical test is placed inside the package to be sterilized. The load should be subjected to a sterilization cycle according to the device manufacturer's recommendations. After the sterilization process has been carried out, the test result should be read. If the sterilization process went correctly, there should be a change of color from blue to black.
Areas of application:
steam sterilizers of all types regardless of chamber size
quantity per package: 250 x 2. (one pack)
