Once-A-Day Bowie-Dick Test Pack for Steam with Warning Sheet, 20/box

• Targeted Sterilization Assessment:
  • Specifically designed for evaluating air removal efficiency in dynamic-air-removal steam sterilizers at 132 °C for 4 minutes and 134 °C for 3.5 minutes
    
• Comprehensive Packaging:
  • Consists of chemical indicators on two test sheets (125 x 113 mm) positioned between porous materials and a reticulated foam, forming a complete test package
    
• Visual Indicator Transformation:
  • Primary test sheet with a regular pattern transforms from yellow to a uniform dark brown/black color, signaling successful air removal. A lighter-colored area indicates air removal failure
    
• Early Warning System:
  • Includes a warning sheet with an indicator circle, turning from yellow to dark brown/black for early detection of air removal failures before appearing on the primary test sheet
    
• Standards Compliance:
  • Bowie-Dick Test Pack complies with ANSI/AAMI/ISO 11140-1:2014 and ANSI/AAMI/ISO 11140-5:2007 standards for reliability and accuracy
    
• Daily Use Recommendation:
  • Perform Bowie-Dick tests daily, before the first load, after installation or relocation, after malfunctions, process failures, and major sterilizer repairs
    
• Critical Warning on Time Extension:
• Avoid extending the recommended test time to prevent false endpoints due to entrapped air diffusion. Not suitable for gravity displacement steam sterilization cycles.
