(after processing)
Small, with big benefits
Although each test pack is the size of a playing card, each card
detects sterilizer issues such as leaks, low temperature/pressure,
superheated steam, and non-condensable gases that can
negatively impact the steam sterilization process.
Small, with no compromises in performance
Precise and easy-to-read color changes to eliminate judgment
calls and potential operator errors. Plus these highly sensitive cards
only show a passing green color when temperature in middle of
pack is not more than 0.5˚C lower than exposure temperature.
• Completely recyclable, post sterilization
• Color-coded packaging helps operators always identify correct
test product to minimize potential errors
• No toxic heavy metals, as listed by OSHA, used in production of
the product, so you are safeguarded against evolving regulations
on use/disposal
• Free of latex to protect personnel who are latex-sensitive
• One 30-pack case weighs just two pounds, compared to other
Bowie-Dick case weight of eight pounds
• Optimized storage space with each test pack measuring just
4˝ x 3˝ x .25˝, compared to a typical size of 5˝ x 5˝ x 1˝
• Smaller size means reduction in ink and paper used in
manufacturing, reducing environmental impact
• Excellent post-sterilization ink stability
• Complete traceability via lot number on each pack/card
• Approved for both 132°C and 134°C pre-vacuum cycles so it
can be used with any make or model steam sterilizer
• Full compliance with AAMI/ISO 11140-5:2007 and AAMI/ISO
11140-1:2005, Class 2 requirements
