Description

The 3M Comply Chemical Steam Indicator Strip 1250 is engineered for effective monitoring of steam sterilization processes. Designed for use in gravity and vacuum-assisted steam sterilization cycles operating at temperatures between 121°C and 134°C (250°F to 273°F), this indicator provides accurate verification of sterilization conditions. The indicator ensures that the sterilization parameters required for effective microbial control are met within each sterilization pack.

This indicator strip conforms to ANSI/AAMI/ISO 11140-1:2014 Type 4 standards, which defines its reliability in verifying that the correct conditions for sterilization have been achieved. Upon exposure to steam during the sterilization cycle, the chemical indicator undergoes a distinct color change from off-white to black, providing a clear visual confirmation of successful sterilization.

The strip is perforated for flexible application, allowing it to be used in either full or half-length sections based on the size of the pack being processed. This feature enhances its versatility and usability across different sterilization scenarios.

With a shelf life of two years, the 3M Comply Chemical Steam Indicator Strip 1250 offers long-term reliability and convenience. It is a critical component in ensuring that sterilization processes are both effective and compliant with established standards.
