The RRS Chemical indicator type 6 is a cycle verification indicator which shall be designed to react to all critical variables for specified sterilization cycles. The stated values are generated from the critical variables of the specified sterilization process. These indicators are easy and cheap to use. The RRS chemical indicators are designed to ensure proper operation of the three effective factors of temperature, time, and steam that these factors are used in the sterilization process.
The distribution of saturated vapor varies in different parts of the steam autoclave (around, near the door, and in the middle). Therefore, the RRS chemical indicator should be located in the center of the enclosure (where the vapor is difficult to penetrate). The steam indicator is in compliance with EN – ISO 11140.
Steam Chemical Indicator class 6 (RRS 14-110)
The RRS Chemical Indicator type 6 consists of three indicators with different capabilities and colors. Each of the indicators accurately confirms the characteristics of the sterilization process.
Result
- When only the top indicator (blue) turns black, the vapor saturation, temperature, and time conditions are not fully provided (Failure).
- When both the blue and green indicators turn black and the yellow indicator turns brown, all three effective factors in sterilization are provided (Safe).
- When the yellow indicator turns black, the optimal time for the sterilization process is provided (Optimum).
The RRS chemical indicator class 6 is produced with inks that are highly sensitive to steam sterilization parameters. The color change of indicator class 6 is yellow to black. The color change according to the reference indicates whether the sterilization process has been successful or not. If the color of the indicator does not change, the correct operation of the device should be checked by the technical manager.
Record the results of the chemical indicator class 6 color change in the RRS CSSD Documentation NoteBook.
Advantages
- High accuracy
- High Quality
- Correct conclusion
- beautiful design
- contain of special adhesive for documentation
Note
Do not expose the RRS chemical indicator to ethylene oxide, dry heat, or any other physical or chemical sterilization process other than steam.
The chemical indicator should not be wetted.
