Class 5 Steam Integrator
Class 5 Steam Integrators can be used inside each load to monitor time, temperature, and steam exposure conditions and can provide the necessary sterilization assurance. Class 5 integrator mimics the ability of a biological indicator at three separate and distinct points during the sterilization process because it will monitor both time and temperature without requiring incubation as does a biological indicator. The Integrator consists of a paper wick and steam and temperature-sensitive chemical pellet contained in a foil laminate. The chemical pellet melts and migrates as a dark color along with the paper wick. The migration is visible through a window marked as REJECT or ACCEPT.

Class 5 Extender
Class 5 Extender can be used inside each load to monitor time, temperature, and steam exposure conditions and can provide the necessary sterilization assurance. The Extender consists of two parts, Class 5 Steam Integrator and Class 5 Integrator. Class 5 Steam Integrator consists of a paper wick and steam and temperature-sensitive chemical pellet contained in a foil laminate. The chemical pellet melts and migrates as a dark color along with the paper wick. The migration is visible through a window marked as REJECT or ACCEPT. Class 5 Integrator consists of indicator ink which color changes after the steam sterilization process.
Class 5 Extender can provide enhanced confidence about the success of the sterilization process due to the double check feature.

Class 5 Integrator
The Class 5 Integrator is designed to evaluate parameters of the sterilization process on the location and to give instant read-out. It can be used in all steam sterilizers as an internal pack monitor. The Integrator changes color rapidly when the sterilization parameters are reached. An internal chemical indicator should be placed in every sterilization package to ensure the sterilization agent has penetrated the packaging material and reached the instruments inside.
