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
