Excelsior multi critical process variable indicator strips contain no lead or other toxic heavy metals. The Indicator strips are intended for use with individual materials (i.e pouches, pack. Tray) to demonstrate that the material has been exposed to a steam sterilisation process to distinguish between processed and un-processed goods. The indicator strips will transition from an initial yellow colour to a dark/black colour when exposed to high temperature steam.

Excelsior multi critical process variable indicator strips contain no lead or other toxic heavy metals. The Indicator strips are manufactured to monitor whether sterilisation conditions were met at the point of placement of the strip. The strips are intended for use in steam sterilisers operating at 121°C and up to 135°C. Class/Type 5 integrating indicators react to all critical variables (time, temperature and moisture) and reach an end point indicating exposure to sterilisation conditions at defined by Excelsior Scientific’s stated values.
