SteriTite universal container system is recommended to be used for sterilization of surfaces and lumens: In STERRAD 100NX Standard cycle, process stainless steel lumens instruments of 0.7 mm diameter or larger and up to 500 mm in length. In STERRAD 100NX Flexible cycle, process flexible endoscopes, PE/PTFE Lumen instruments of ≥1.2 mm x ≤835 mm. 120 days of real time Shelf life testing with handling events has been conducted for SteriTite containers after STERRAD 100NX Sterilization. Reuse testing was performed after 501 STERRAD 100NX Standard cycles.

Device Story

SteriTite Universal Container System is a rigid, reusable sterilization packaging system for operating room instruments. Components include anodized aluminum containers with perforated bases, lids, filter retention plates, and disposable polypropylene filters. MediTray accessories (baskets, trays, racks, brackets) secure instruments inside. Used in clinical settings to enclose instruments during STERRAD 100NX sterilization cycles. System maintains sterility during transport and storage. Healthcare providers load instruments into containers, process them through the STERRAD 100NX, and store them until use. Validated for 120-day shelf life and 501 reuse cycles. Benefits include instrument protection and standardized sterilization workflow.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Bench testing only. Validation performed at independent laboratories per FDA guidance and AAMI standards. Testing included sterilization efficacy for stainless steel and porous lumens, inoculated product, and mixed loads in STERRAD 100NX cycles. Shelf life validated for 120 days with handling events. Reuse testing validated for 501 cycles.

Technological Characteristics

Materials: Anodized aluminum, passivated stainless steel hardware, silicone gaskets, disposable polypropylene filters. Form factor: Rigid containers in various sizes (Full, Mid, Half, Mini). Connectivity: None. Sterilization: STERRAD 100NX (Standard and Flex cycles).

Indications for Use

Indicated for use by health care providers to enclose medical devices and instrumentation for sterilization, transport, and storage. Compatible with STERRAD 100NX Standard cycle (stainless steel lumens ≥0.7mm diameter, ≤500mm length) and Flex cycle (flexible endoscopes, PE/PTFE lumens ≥1.2mm x ≤835mm).

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A sterilization wrap (pack, sterilization wrapper, bag, or accessories, is a device intended to be used to enclose another medical device that is to be sterilized by a health care provider.
