Using High-Level Disinfectants with GUS
Step 1: Probe Soaking Instructions
CIVCO Medical Solution's new soak and rinse containers for the GUS G10VP and G14KA units are 17" tall. This
allows your probes to be disinfected past the handle and strain relief.
CAUTION: Older probes are not water-resistant above the handle and must not be soaked above the
top of the handle. Failure to follow these instructions may result in expensive probe damage, may lead
to unsafe use or inability to use, and may result in injury.
Check with your probe manufacturer to determine whether your probe’s handle or strain relief can be
submerged.
Every probe to be soaked MUST be marked on the cable as follows:
If your probe is NOT water-resistant:
Suspend the probe into an empty
container so that the top of the handle is
level with the top of the container.
Depress blue tab and place probe cable
into the grip clip. Mark the cable just
above the top of the grip clip using a
permanent marker or tape.
If your probe IS water-resistant:
Suspend
the
probe
into
an
empty
container so that the tip of the probe is
about 1/2" above the bottom of the
container.
Depress blue tab and place probe cable
into the grip clip using a permanent
marker or tape
IMPORTANT:
By keeping the red mark above the grip clip, the probe will always be at the right length.
