(Main)Non-biological systems for use in sterilizers - Part 2: Process indicators (Class A)
Non-biological systems for use in sterilizers - Part 2: Process indicators (Class A)
This part of EN 867 specifies requirements for steam, ethylene oxide, irradiation, dry heat and steam/formaldehyde sterilisation process indicators intended for use with individual packs of product to demonstrate that the pack has been exposed to the process. They may be designed to react to one or more of the critical process variables but may be designed to achieve their end-point reaction after exposure to sub-optimal levels of the process variable. Process indicators have a defined end-point reaction.
Nichtbiologische Systeme für den Gebrauch in Sterilisatoren - Teil 2: Prozeßindikatoren (Klasse A)
Dieser Teil von EN 867 legt Anforderungen an Prozessindikatoren für die Sterilisation mit Dampf, Ethylenoxid, Bestrahlung, trockener Wärme und Dampf/Formaldehyd fest, die für einzelne Packungen des Produktes vorgesehen sind, um nachzuweisen, dass die Verpackung diesem Verfahren ausgesetzt wurde. Sie können auf eine oder mehrere der kritischen Prozessvoariablen reagieren, können jedoch auch ihre Endpunktreaktion nach Einwirkung von Pegeln unterhalb der optimalen Pegel der Prozessvariablen erreichen. Prozessindikatoren haben eine definierte Endpunktreaktion.
Systèmes non-biologiques destinés à être utilisés dans des stérilisateurs - Partie 2: Indicateurs de procédé (Class A)
La présente partie de la norme EN 867 spécifie les exigences pour les indicateurs pour la stérilisation à la vapeur d'eau, à l'oxyde d'éthylène, par rayonnement, à la chaleur sèche et à la vapeur d'eau/au formaldéhyde. Ces indicateurs sont prévus pour être utilisés avec des paquets isolés de produit, afin de montrer que le dit paquet a été exposé au procédé. Ils peuvent être conçus pour réagir à une ou plusieurs des variables critiques de procédé, mais peuvent être conçus pour réaliser leur réaction de point limita après exposition à des niveaux sous-optimaux de la variable de procédé.
