STERILITY ASSURANCE Monitor critical performance characteristics of sterilization, decontamination or cleaning equipment VERIFY Equipment Control Products EQUIPMENT CONTROL LOAD CONTROL PROCESS CONTROL PACK CONTROL RECORD KEEPING & LABELING PRODUCT TESTING Quality Control

VERIFY Equipment Control Products monitor critical performance characteristics of sterilization, these products confirm that the equipment used in these critical processes is functioning correctly. STERIS Air Removal Tests (Bowie Dick Test) Performed at the beginning of each day that the prevacuum steam sterilizer is in operation, Air Removal Tests (Bowie Dick Tests) VERIFY that the prevacuum sterilizer effectively removes air and provides efficient steam penetration. Equivalent to the AAMI Bowie Dick Test Pack, STERIS s Disposable Daily Air Removal Tests provide reliable performance and accurate results. DART Daily Air Removal Test The unique compact barrel design creates a barrier to air removal and steam penetration. The Daily Air Removal Test is placed directly into an otherwise empty steam sterilizer chamber and does not require a retaining device. An optional tie is provided for suspension of the DART test. During processing, steam must displace the air through the blue heat sink and then within the restricted transparent chamber of the chemical indicator. A uniform color change from yellow to black indicates that all the air was removed and replaced by steam. > Meets ANSI/AAMI/ISO 11140-4 requirements for Class 2 Air Removal Indicator Systems > Operates at 270-274 F/132-134 C with an exposure time of 3.5-4.0 minutes > The indicator strip is easy to access. Simply snap off the end chamber and remove the indicator > Results are immediately visible through the clear vial NB215 Dart Daily Air Pack (10 test Darts) Removal Test NB113 Dart Daily Air Removal Test Case (5 packs) VERIFY Bowie Dick Test Pack The VERIFY Bowie Dick Test Pack consists of a series of air removal and steam penetration barriers into which a chemical indicator sheet is embedded. The test pack is placed directly into an otherwise empty steam sterilizer chamber and does not require a retaining device. During processing, steam must displace the air through the barrier material within the pack. A uniform change from yellow to blue on the indicator sheet indicates that all the air was removed and replaced by steam. The advanced technology in our thermochromic ink formulation can detect problems with steam quality. The ink is free of lead and other heavy metals. > Meets ANSI/AAMI/ISO 11140-4 requirements for Class 2 Air Removal Indicator Systems > Operates at 270-275 F/132-135 C with an exposure time of 3.5-4.0 minutes EQC009 VERIFY Bowie Dick Box (20 test packs) Test Pack EQC010 VERIFY Bowie Dick Test Pack Case (2 boxes) NB113 EQC009

decontamination, or cleaning equipment. As part of any Sterility Assurance Program, offers a wide variety of Equipment Control Products for your sterilization, decontamination and cleaning needs. VERIFY Bowie Dick Test Card About the size of a credit card, the VERIFY Bowie Dick Test Card s unique design eliminates all material waste associated with other disposable test packs. The chemical indicator is sandwiched between impermeable plastic barriers. The test card is placed into a test card holder and then directly into an otherwise empty steam sterilizer chamber. During processing, residual air is replaced by steam through four small holes located at opposite ends of the test card. An immediate visable uniform change from yellow to black indicates that all the air was removed and replaced by steam. Following processing, the test card becomes a permanent record of the Daily Air Removal Test. > Meets ANSI/AAMI/ISO 11140-4 requirements for Class 2 Air Removal Indicator Systems > Operates at 270-274 F/132-134 C with an exposure time of 3.5-4.0 minutes S3095 VERIFY Bowie Dick Box (31 test cards) Test Card (Multi-pulse) S3096 VERIFY Bowie Dick Test Card Holder Each (1 holder) S3095 S3096

VERIFY Equipment Control Products monitor critical performance characteristics of steriliza these products confirm that the equipment used in these critical processes is functioning correctly. STERIS of Biological Indicators Used alone or within your constructed challenge sets, biological indicators provide a consistent reproducible bacterial challenge for the sterilization system. VERIFY Self-contained Biological Indicators (SCBIs) for Steam and EO VERIFY Self-contained Biological Indicators contain both Geobacillus stearothermophilus and Bacillus atrophaeus spores and eliminate the need for aseptic transfer. They can be used in steam 250 F/121 C gravity, 270 F/132 C prevacuum, 270 F/132 C gravity flash, 270 F steam-flush pressure-pulse cycle and ethylene oxide sterilization processes including 100% ethylene oxide applications. > Can be used in steam (including Flash 270 F/132 C gravity) and ethylene oxide sterilization processes > Sturdy construction protects glass media ampoule from premature breakage > Easy-to-use activator > Final read at 24-hour incubation for steam > Final read at 48-hour incubation for EO VERIFY Incubators Designed to work with VERIFY Self-contained Biological Indicators.

Microbial Challenge Packs (Biological Indicator Test Packs) Equivalent to the AAMI Biological Indicator (BI) Test Pack (Challenge Pack), STERIS s Biological Indicator Test Packs confirm your equipment s microbial efficacy within wrapped packs. Performed weekly for steam and with each ethylene oxide sterilization cycle, microbial challenge packs VERIFY the sterilizer s sterility performance. VERIFY Biological Steam Test Packs VERIFY Steam Test Packs are compact, lightweight and disposable and have been demonstrated to be equivalent to the AAMI Biological Indicator Test Pack for steam. Each pack contains a conventional self-contained biological indicator as required by AAMI for weekly microbial challenges of your steam sterilizer (250 F/121 C gravity and 270 F/132 C prevacuum). > Meets ANSI/AAMI ST79 requirements for a biological indicator test pack > Prefabricated disposable test pack > Self-contained BI meets conventional microbial growth requirements as defined by AAMI > Final read at 24 hours incubation S3065 VERIFY Biological Steam Box (20 packs with Test Pack 5 controls) S3069 VERIFY Biological Steam Test Pack S3075 VERIFY Activator Set Each Box (20 packs with 20 controls) VERIFY Steam Biological/Integrator Challenge Packs Monitor and release all loads sterilized in 270ºF/132ºC prevacuum steam cycles and 250ºF/121ºC gravity steam cycles.
