Indicators for pack monitoring are used in steam sterilisation process to monitor the successful sterilisation inside the pack.
Class 6 indicators should only be used if solid and porous goods are being sterilised because they only provide sterility information on top of the surface of an instrument at the point where they are located. To monitor hollow MIS instruments a Process Challenge Device should be used with a Class 2 indicator system.
- Easy to use
- Monitors all critical parameters in a steam sterilisation process (temperature, steam & time)
- Self-adhesive and can be easily adhered to the count sheet placed inside a pack for proof of the process
- Laminated surface to prevent bleeding and transfer of chemical substances onto instruments
- Easy interpretation of colour change from red to black
- Colour reference is printed on each label therefore no separate colour reference chart is necessary
