10. TEST PROGRAMS
To protect the safety of users and patients, a fundamental process like sterilising medical devices should be periodically checked.
The device offers the possibility of easily and automatically executing two
distinct test cycles:
•
HELIX TEST / B&D TEST;
•
VACUUM TEST;
•
A program that executes the two tests combined
VACUUM + HELIX
TEST / B&D TEST
is also available;
•
There is also a further test to check the water quality:
H2O TEST
.
10.1. HELIX / B&D TEST CYCLE
Helix/B&D T
est is a cycle run at 134°C characterised by a sterilisation phase that lasts a specific time (3.5 minutes); the cycle comprises the fractionated
vacuum phases similar to those used in the sterilisation cycles.
Using an appropriate device, you can assess correct steam penetration into hollow loads (Helix Test).
The cycle is also suitable to measure steam penetration into porous loads (Bowie & Dick test pack).
Load the appropriate Helix or B&D Test pack (see the section below for
proper use of the test packs)
To use the
Helix/B&D Test cycle
, press the corresponding button and
then press Start.
