3M Health Care is now Solventum
An Equipment Monitor that is designed to monitor the performance of vacuum-assisted 132°C-134°C (270°F - 273°F) steam sterilizers each day.
As an Equipment Monitor, the 3M™ Comply™ Bowie-Dick Test Pack #1233 is designed to monitor the performance of vacuum-assisted 132°C-134°C (270°F - 273°F) steam sterilizers each day. Test packs will reproducibly detect residual air in the sterilizer chamber due to air leaks, air removal failures and inadequate vacuum - any of which can compromise sterility. Complies to ANSI/AAMI/ISO 11140-5:2007 Class 2.
• Easy-to-read test sheet clearly identifies failures and can be filed for record keeping
Suggested Applications
• A Bowie-Dick test should be run daily on each sterilizer. Should also be used to check sterilizer performance after a major repair.
