Load Validation

In order to verify that your loads are being properly sterilised, Astell would always recommend that the loads are validated. A typical method would be a 12 Point Thermocouple Validation

The process involves inserting up to twelve thermocouples into the load so as to accurately determine that the whole load has reached the set point temperature and has maintained that temperature for the desired time.

This work is carried out to UKAS standards and all the equipment used is fully traceable to national standards.

Astell can also provide quarterly and annual service and testing in accordance with HTM2010, carried out by experienced and qualified test engineers
