— WHAT IS STERILIZER VALIDATION —

What Is Autoclave / Sterilizer Validation & Why Does It Matter?

Imagine surgical instruments coming out of an autoclave that completed its cycle, displayed "sterile," yet a cold spot in the chamber meant a fraction of the load never reached sterilizing temperature — an invisible failure with patient-safety consequences.

Sterilizer validation is a documented IQ/OQ/PQ process that maps chamber temperature at multiple points, calculates the F0 value, and runs a biological indicator challenge to prove the sterilizer consistently achieves the required sterility assurance level. A NABL certificate confirms ISO 17665 compliance — accepted by NABH, WHO GMP, and FDA auditors.

Check

Chamber temperature mapped at multiple points using NABL-traceable RTD probes across a full load.

Correct

F0 value calculated and compared against baseline; deviations flagged for corrective action.

Certify

NABL CC-2480 certificate plus IQ/OQ/PQ validation report issued with full traceability.

— VALIDATION APPROACH —

Validation Process — Step by Step

01

IQ — Installation Qualification

Sterilizer installation verified — utilities, chamber dimensions, safety interlocks, documentation confirmed against design specifications.

02

OQ — Operational Qualification

Empty chamber temperature distribution mapping. Bowie-Dick test. Safety valve and door interlock test. Cycle timer calibration.

03

PQ — Performance Qualification

Temperature mapping with full load. F0 value calculation. Biological indicator challenge run. Three consecutive successful cycles documented.

04

As-Found Measurement

Temperature and pressure readings captured against NABL-traceable RTD probes at multiple chamber points. Deviations recorded.

05

Periodic Revalidation

Annual temperature distribution mapping on loaded chamber. F0 verification compared with OQ baseline.

06

NABL Certificate & Validation Report

NABL CC-2480 certificate plus IQ/OQ/PQ validation report with all data, F0 calculations, uncertainty (k=2), traceability issued.

— STANDARDS & COMPLIANCE —

Backed by International Standards

Every sterilizer validation is performed under ISO 17665 and EN 13060, with full traceability to NPL national standards. Our certificates satisfy all hospital and pharmaceutical regulatory audit requirements.

NABL Accreditation — CC-2480

Prism holds NABL CC-2480 under ISO/IEC 17025:2017, recognized under the ILAC MRA agreement. Our biomedical calibration certificates are valid for WHO GMP, FDA, NABH, and all audit purposes.

— NON-NABL CALIBRATION —

Non-NABL Sterilizer Validation Also Available

For routine maintenance, bulk validation, or facilities not needing NABL certification — Prism offers cost-effective non-NABL validation with the same trained engineers and traceable references.

Internal maintenance & routine checks
Pre-delivery and incoming inspection
Bulk calibration for non-critical instruments
R&D and workshop environments
Cost-effective for projects without audit requirements

Traceable References

All non-NABL jobs use the same NPL-traceable references — only the certificate type differs.

Faster Turnaround

Non-NABL jobs completed faster — ideal for urgent maintenance or large bulk batches.

Cost-Effective

Priced lower than NABL — right choice for internal checks and non-audit use cases.

Onsite or In-Lab

Available at our Ahmedabad lab and as onsite service across Gujarat — same team, same quality.
