Moist heat sterilization validation requires maintaining 121.0C to 124.0C for 15 minutes or 134.0C to 137.0C for 3 minutes without cold spot temperature drops.

1. Pre-Calibration and Post-Calibration Checks

Verify all multi-channel datalogging thermocouples and RTDs before and after autoclave cycles in a portable dry block calibrator like the DB Therion.
