Bowie & Dick Type Autoclave Test Pack
After an intense development process, Interster has
developed a new Bowie & Dick Type Autoclave Test
Pack which meets all the requirements of ISO 11140-4.
The Bowie & Dick Type Autoclave Test Pack is a Type 2
chemical indicator packed in medical grade paper with
cardboard outer packaging, which imitates the original
Bowie & Dick test.
The Bowie & Dick Type Autoclave Test Pack indicates
whether steam penetration in the autoclave has reached
the required parameters.
The chemical indicator will change from blue to light pink to indicate whether all parameters (time, pressure and steam
penetration) were sufficient to pass the process.
Material
The Bowie & Dick Type Autoclave Test Pack consists of a chemical indicator which is packed between layers of medical
grade paper. The chemical indicator and special paper are packed in a thin cardboard outer box which can be opened
very easily after use. The indicator contains a specially developed indicator ink which is affixed through a silkscreen
printing process. The product does not contain heavy metals.
Accreditation
The Bowie & Dick Type Autoclave Test Pack has been tested under the supervision of BSI Assurance UK Ltd. The test pack
was positively certified with a BSI Kitemark (KM 633144) and completely meets the requirements of ISO 11140-4 on all
possible Bowie & Dick cycles (B1, B2 and B3).
Colour Change
As the starting colour of the Bowie & Dick Type Autoclave Test Pack is blue and the successful change colour is light pink,
a clear contrast is visible between a successful and unsuccessful process. This eliminates any doubt between a before and
after result. On the image below an unused and used indicator sheet are displayed.
