Seks røde indikatorer til tørsterilisation (Sterilizer Control Tubes fra Albert Browne) (Klarere farver, massiv grå baggrund) 1

Chemical indicators for dry heat sterilization

Overview

De kemiske indikatorer, der leveres af Safe Sterilization ApS, er udviklet til proceskontrol af sterilisationsprocessen i tørsterilisatorer. De efterviser, at de kritiske parametre (kombination af tid/temp.) er opfyldt under sterilisationsprocessen.

De kemiske indikatorer skal anvendes som procesindikator minimum én gang dagligt, eller når tørsterilisatoren anvendes.

Chemical indicators are complementary to biological indicators. Biological indicators should be used to verify the killing effect of the sterilization process on microorganisms.

Product description

The chemical indicators are manufactured in accordance with the requirements of the DS/EN ISO 11140-1 Class 6 standard.

The chemical indicator contains a heat sensitive dye (indicator) that changes colour when exposed to the correct combination of temperature and time in a dry sterilizer. When the chemical indicator is placed in cassettes, the indicator will confirm that the heat has penetrated to the location where the indicator is located.

Use

Anvendelse af kemiske indikatorer dokumenterer, at de kritiske parametre (tid/temp.) er opnået. Derfor skal du anbringe de kemiske indikatorer på de steder, som du anser for mest vanskelige at sterilisere. Følger der en vejledning i egenkontrol med dit udstyr, så følg den.

The chemical indicators are used alongside equipment to be sterilized and can be placed in cassettes (if used). The placements should be as close to everyday use as possible. 

If the chemical indicator does not change colour from red to green after exposure to a sterilisation process, the cause of this must be clarified and corrected. Please consult the manual you received along with your equipment. After troubleshooting your equipment, repeat the test with chemical indicator.

Hvis du ikke kan afhjælpe problemet selv, kan Safe Sterilization hjælpe dig med kontakt til en uvildig servicemontør.

Specification

The chemical indicator is used for the following combinations of temperature and time:

  • 160°C for 2 hours
  • 170°C in 65 min.
  • 180°C in 35 min.

Always read and follow the instruction on the box.

Ved eksponering med tør varme vil indikatoren skifte farve fra rød til gul og til sidst grøn. Et korrekt farveomskift indikerer, at de fysiske parametre er opnået.

Please refer to our User guide for the product here on this website.

Storage, durability and disposal

The chemical indicators must be stored in a cool and dark place, preferably refrigerated and below 21°C, otherwise the function can be reduced.

Used indicators should be kept as documentation of tests performed. Storage must be cool and dark (no sunlight/daylight) and discarded chemical indicators can be disposed of as glass waste.

Expiration date for the chemical indicators is indicated on the box. Never use an expired indicator.
