Chemdye® Splat – Cleaning Indicator (Pink)
A highly sensitive indicator for monitoring cleaning processes in dishwasher-disinfectors and ultrasonic baths. It visualizes whether organic material is being removed properly and verifies that critical process parameters are functioning as intended.
Description
Chemdye® Splat is a cleaning indicator based on a standardized test soil validated against ISO 15883-5:2005, consisting of proteins, carbohydrates, and fats. When cleaned properly, the coating is completely removed, providing clear visual verification of the process’s effectiveness.
The indicator is used for routine monitoring and validation of dishwasher disinfectors and ultrasonic cleaners, where it enables the identification of deviations in critical parameters such as time, temperature, mechanical action, water quality, and detergent dosage.
To simulate hard-to-reach surfaces, the indicator is placed in a holder (CDWAH-U for ultrasonic baths or CDWAH for dishwasher-disinfectors), which provides a more realistic and reproducible assessment of the cleaning process.
Results can be documented manually or integrated into digital systems for traceability, such as Tranzanto, to enable centralized monitoring of cleaning processes.
Features
- Simulates real-world contamination validated against the standardized test soilISO 15883-5:2005.
- Verifies the entire cleaning process, not individual parameters
- Visual reading with a clear color change (washing away of the colored substance)
- Can be used in both dishwasher-safe disinfectors and ultrasonic baths
- Available in different difficulty levels (Blue CDWA3, Pink CDWA4)
- Option for instrumental reading for traceability
- Non-toxic formulation
Blue (CDWA3) and pink (CDWA4) differ in terms of severity and intended use.
Blue (CDWA3) has a high level of difficulty and is primarily used for routine checks of established cleaning processes.
Rosa (CDWA4) has a very high difficulty level and is used for validation or when a more demanding test level is required, such as during installation, requalification, or troubleshooting.
This choice determines how "challenging" the test is—pink sets higher standards for the process than blue.
For guidance on choosing the right level, see our guide,“How to Choose the Right Cleaning Indicator for Medical Device Cleaning.”
