SteamPlus chemical integrator for steam sterilisation, 100 tests

The STEAMPlus™ chemical integrating indicator is an advanced-technology product that ensures correct monitoring of saturated steam sterilisation parameters in both 134°C and 121°C cycles. Highly practical and precise, STEAMPlus™ requires no interpretation of results, as sterilisation is verified simply by reading the progress of the migrating bar. This product has been certified in accordance with technical standard ISO 11140-1 as a Class 5 integrator, as it delivers performance comparable to that of a biological indicator (Geobacillus Stearothermophilus).

DESCRIPTION STEAM has been designed to integrate the three critical parameters of steam sterilisation: time, temperature and presence of saturated steam. Results are read through a practical window divided into a double reading area: if the integrator has been through a correct sterilisation cycle, the ink advances inside the reading window until it reaches the blue “SAFE” zone. The exact end position of the migrating bar within the blue “SAFE” zone is irrelevant. If the dark bar does not reach the blue “SAFE” zone, sterilisation conditions have not been met.
