Product Overview
The Celerity 20 STEAM Biological Indicator (BI) is a fast-read 20-minute BI used for routine monitoring, qualification testing, load monitoring and product testing of commonly used steam sterilization cycles.
How the Celerity 20 STEAM Biological Indicator Works
After a steam sterilization cycle, the cap's color-changing process indicator will provide immediate proof of exposure in the autoclave. The glass-free BI is activated using a twist and flick motion, reducing the potential of contamination from "over-activated" vials and eliminating the need for a second activator. The biological indicator is then incubated using the universal Celerity Incubator or Celerity STEAM Incubator for just 20 minutes.
Why the Celerity 20 STEAM Biological Indicator?
- Fast results and quick device turnaround with an industry-leading 20-minute incubation time
- Simple and quick documentation of lot numbers and expiration dates with a barcode on the process indicator
- Reduces potential for injury and makes disposal easy with a glass-free design
- Validated for use with the VERIFY® All-In-One STEAM Reusable Test Pack
