Indications for Use
The STERRAD VELOCITY Reader, in conjunction with the STERRAD VELOCITY
Biological Indicator / Process Challenge Device, is intended to be used as a standard
method for frequent monitoring and periodic testing of the following STERRAD™
Sterilization Systems:
•STERRAD 100NX (STANDARD, FLEX, EXPRESS, and DUO Cycles) with
and without ALLClear Technology
•STERRAD NX (STANDARD and ADVANCED Cycles) with and without
ALLClear Technology
•STERRAD 100S
Product Description
The reader is an integral part of a monitoring system which tests the BI for
the presence of an indicator organism. The reader incubates the BI at 57°C (134.6°F)
and provides nal uorescent results within 15 minutes. The presence or absence
of the viable indicator organism, indicated by uorescence, in the BI determines
the effectiveness of the sterilization cycle. The BI and reader system is used for
frequent monitoring and periodic testing of the STERRAD NX with and without
ALLClear Technology, STERRAD 100NX with and without ALLClear Technology, and
the STERRAD 100S Sterilization Systems in hospitals and healthcare facilities.
