1 x Orange Oval PCD plus 100 Indicators

GKE process challenge device (PCD) are used for routine monitoring in steam sterilization processes in each cycle to detect insufficient air removal, leaks and/or non-condensable gases (NCG) in steam.

The process monitoring system (PMS) is a hollow load test according to EN 867-5 which is designed to monitor steam penetration at the most difficult positions inside of the sterilization load.

The PMS simulates the penetration requirements of complex hollow, minimal invasive surgical (MIS) instruments, tubes and solid instruments or porous loads.

Orange oval device consists of an external plastic casing with an internal stainless steel tube and capsule holding the indicator.

All PCDs are re-useable and can be used for a considerable number of sterilization cycles.
