Additional Features
Tests can be run in either the Standard Mode, in which filtration parameters
are chosen manually, or in the Test Method Mode, in which every step of the
method appears on the screen with preloaded parameters for speed and time
to ensure there is no deviation from the approved test protocol. The test
methods are created with the Steritest
®
Symbio Software and transferred to
the Steritest
®
Symbio Pump through a network cable or with USB flash drive.
The software (from version 1.1.0.0) can be used in ten languages (German,
English, Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, Japanese, Simplified Chinese,
Turkish, and Russian).
The drain tray and bottle holder are ergonomically positioned around the pump
head for easy access in limited-space environments.
