The European workgroup appointed by the  EU commission has passed the european standard EN 13060 in the course of the harmonization of different national sterilization standards. The standard divides autoclaves into the classes B, S and N. Class B is the highest class conforming to the most strin - gent demands and therefire can be unrestrictedly used for the sterillization of all possible loads used in medical practices (also with hollow bodied instruments, handpieces and turbines) and for all kinds of sterilization packaging. Aclass B autoclave must in any case pass a Helix test with a test specimen as per EN 13060:2001. According to expert opinion, that can only be achieved with a fractionated pre-vacuum procedure. the autoclaves of the profi class conform to class B requirements and are therefore absolutly future-safe.
