GKE Indicators Chemic Class 6 Emulating Packaging box of 500

One box of 500 high quality class 6 sterilisation indicators

Indicators for package monitoring are used in steam sterilisation processes, to monitor the successful sterilisation inside of packages.

The GKE emulating indicator is self-adhesive. It has easy colour change from red to black indicating the requirements according to Australian and EN parameters.

Application

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.

Performance Characteristics

GKE Class 6 Indicators fulfil the requirements of a Class 6 indicator according to EN-ISO 11140-1 and monitor all critical parameters (steam and temperature over time).

The indicator only changes colour to black if an adequate temperature-time window has been achieved and steam is present.
