STF Load Check holder

The STF Load Check indicator and holder are designed for use in every cycle. The STF Load Check indicator from Browne is printed with a strong red soil form which is safe to handle, easy to see and therefore easy to interpret.

The STF Load Check holder mesh mimics shadowing surfaces. Case joints and other occluded surfaces have always been a challenge for washer-disinfectors, as each surface is shadowed by the others. These areas are difficult to clean and rely entirely on the machine’s ability to force water and detergent into and down these surfaces. The STF Load Check holder from Browne and the mesh that occludes the indicator surface present a challenge that is subject to the same mechanical and chemical action. Place an STF Load Check indicator in the holder and place the assembly (indicator and holder) in the tray or basket.

Once a full cycle has been completed, the STF Load Check indicator is removed from the holder and examined for evidence of soil residue. Complete removal of the dried 'soil test' pattern from the plastic material provides a qualitative assessment of the washer-disinfector's cleaning ability.
