Sterintech Type 5 Small Moving Front Steam Integrator

The Type 5 Small Moving Front Steam Sterilization Integrator is a chemical integrator developed for detailed control and load-by-load verification of steam sterilization cycles. Used in addition to Helix batch control tests, it helps release the sterilization load safely. Its moving front technology allows critical parameters of the cycle, such as temperature and holding time, to be evaluated clearly. If the temperature does not reach a sufficient level or the holding time is too short, the dark indicator area does not reach the “accept” zone and possible process errors are easily detected.
