Description
EBI 16 electronic steam penetration test is an alternative Bowie&Dick test for electronic verification of steam penetration in sterilization processes. The instrument evaluates whether steam reaches all areas of a load under defined conditions, helping identify air retention or inadequate vacuum that could compromise sterilizer performance. It supports routine autoclave validation, process monitoring and quality assurance in laboratory and medical environments. With a net weight of 0,5 kg and gross weight of 0,75 kg, the compact unit is practical for bench-top and mobile use. Supplied as 1 pc from manufacturer Ebro - a Xylem brand, it fits temperature logging, humidity determination and climate measurement workflows. The electronic design provides a reusable digital alternative to traditional chemical indicator packs, enabling documented assessment of steam penetration results. Suitable for hospitals, pharmaceutical production and research facilities that require consistent, reproducible checks of sterilization cycles. The EBI 16 contributes to infection-control and sterile-processing standards by delivering clear electronic feedback on process parameters critical to effective steam sterilization.

Questions about EBI 16, electronic steam penetration test, alternative Bowie&Dick Test
What is this article?
EBI 16, electronic steam penetration test, alternative Bowie&Dick Test is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Ebro - a Xylem brand for laboratory use. It sits in Electronic pipettes, inside Liquid handling, in Lab instruments.
An electronic pipette drives the piston with a motor, so a repeat dispense or a serial dilution is a program rather than the thumb. The volume range is still the specification. The battery and the modes, pipette, dispense, reverse, are the practical difference from a manual pipette.
A piston pipette delivers a set volume of liquid by air displacement or, for viscous and volatile liquids, by positive displacement. A single channel is the ordinary tool. A multichannel repeats the same volume across a row of a plate. A bottle-top dispenser meters reagent from the bottle it sits on. The accuracy is a property of the pipette and of how it is used, which is why calibration and a certificate exist. Piston-operated apparatus is treated under ISO laboratory apparatus. The volume unit sits with the BIPM and NIST.
