Application
The gke Steri-Record® Bowie-Dick-Simulation
(BDS) Test is daily used after start up as a functionality check (type test, no sterility test) for
steam sterilizers. It has to be carried out in an
empty sterilizer chamber. The BDS test is no substitution for routine monitoring. For routine monitoring batch/process monitoring systems or type 5
or 6 indicators in each package should be used.
Table top sterilizers according to EN 13060
type B do not require a Bowie-Dick Test but a
hollow load type test according to EN 867-5.
However, some sterilizer manufacturers demand
the daily use of a BDS-test during start-up. The
Compact-PCD®
(colour: blue) combines the BDand hollow load test in one test system.
Product Description
All three gke Steri-Record® BDS-Tests are
type 2 indicator systems according to
EN ISO 11140-1 consisting of a “specific test
load“ so-called Process Challenge Device = PCD
and a “detector“ (indicator strip) inside.

The PCD consists of an external highly durable
case containing an internal stainless steel tube
connected with a capsule holding the indicator.
The highly durable PCD can be used for several
thousand applications. Only one indicator strip is
required for each test. The same indicator strip is
used in all three BDS versions and is selfadhesive for daily documentation.
Performance Characteristics
The sterilizer standards EN 285 and AAMI /ANSI
ST79 describe three different type tests:
1. American BD-Test
Air removal test according to AAMI/ANSI ST79
(4 kg test pack) and validated according to the
test method of ISO 11140-1 + 5.
2. European BD-Test
Air removal and steam penetration test
validated according to the test method of
EN ISO 11140-1 + 4 with reference to the 7 kg
test pack in EN 285.
3. Hollow load test described in EN 867-5
required as an additional type test in EN 285.

All gke BDS-tests are type 2 indicators according
to EN ISO 11140-1. gke offers three different
BDS-Tests with the following performance characteristics.
All above mentioned BDS-Tests can be used in
BD test programs at 132-137°C, 1-3.5 min or
121°C, 15-30 min. If these BD-cycle are not available, a normal cycle of 134°C for up to 9 min may
be used.
