The practical test package simulates a laundry package weighing several kilograms being sterilized in an autoclave with fractionated pre-vacuum. The successful color change of the indicator in the test package takes place at 134 °C after 3.5 min. 20 test packages are included in the scope of delivery.
The handling of the MELAcontrol Bowie & Dick test is very simple: Place the test package at the desired position in the load. Run the sterilization program and then check the result. With sufficient steam penetration, the indicator turns from yellow to black.
1. Inserting test
Place the MELAcontrol Bowie & Dick Test kit in the autoclave on the middle tray. Please perform the test without further loading.
2. Starting program
Please start the Bowie & Dick Test Program afterwards.
3. Removing test
When the sterilization program is finished, please remove the MELAcontrol Bowie & Dick Test kit. CAUTION: The load and test kit may be hot.
4. Checking indicator
Open the cooled test package at the flap and check the complete color change from yellow to black on the centered indicator.
5. Documenting results
Please document the result directly on the back of the indicator.
