ProChek S is specifically engineered for use with standard steam sterilizers (gravity and pre-vac). It is not suitable for monitoring chemical vapor “Chemiclaves”, dry heat or STATIM® pulse sterilizers.
No. Your sterilization monitoring program must include biological spore tests, preferably at least once a week in each operational sterilizer in use.The ProChek S does not replace biological spore tests.
ProChek ID Indicator Strips (SM4340) are internal Class 1 indicators reacting to steam moisture and heat. The ink changes from white to dark brown/black in steam or medium brown in chemical vapor. This product meets the CDC and AAMI ST79 guidelines for an internal chemical indicator to be used inside pouches, cassettes and packs to…
Co-solvent cleaning in a vapor degreaser delivers the convenience and speed of traditional mono-solvent cleaning, but intensifies this cleaning with a second cleaning fluid. The two co-solvents have very distinct behaviors. One boils at low temperature and the other boils at a very high temperature, working together to enhance overall cleaning performance.This second high boiling…
Detergents work by reducing surface tension of water while emulsifying soils. This process is aided by friction through brushing and scrubbing along with impingement (spray water pressure).
Detergents, like the ProWash Multi-purpose Instrument Wash, work by reducing surface tension of water while emulsifying soils. This process is aided by friction through brushing and scrubbing along with impingement (spray water pressure).
Bi-solvent cleaning using a vapor degreaser delivers the convenience and speed of traditional mono-solvent solvent cleaning, but intensifies this cleaning with a second cleaning fluid. This second high boiling point, non-volatile solvating agent provides the additional cleaning muscle needed to remove very tenacious soils like heavy greases and thick waxes.Most fabricators turn to bi-solvent cleaning…
ProWash Instrument and Cart Wash contains a team of chemical agents including surfactants to aid in the release of soil from surfaces and chelating agents to improve performance in hard water.
Do not release the load of instruments for use. Check the physical controls (temperature, cycle time, etc.) and print out if available. Verify that correct cycle time, temperature and pressure are in use.Determine if the sterilizer is overloaded. Evaluate how items are loaded. Packages placed paper to paper or stacked flat instead of on edge…
Companies seek mild cleaners for many reasons, but the most common issue is materials compatibility. Strong cleaners deliver great results and clean quickly, but may attack soft plastics, rubber, conformal coatings or remove inks. If this are a concern, then you need for a cleaner with a low Kb value that will not dissolve, craze or attack…
