Wipe the electronics housing and sensor cable with a clean, soft cloth
moistened with mild detergent and water. Take care not to allow any fluid
to access the interior of the electronics housing.
The electronics housing and sensor cable can be wiped with a clean, soft,
lint-free cloth moistened with a 70% to 90% diluted solution of ethyl or
isopropyl alcohol or sodium hypochlorite (5.2% household bleach) at 1:500
dilution (100 ppm chlorine).
NOTE:
Draeger Medical makes no claims about the efficacy of these
agents or this method of cleaning for infection control. Consult
your hospital's infection control officer or epidemiologist.
Cleaning and
Disinfecting
the Breathing
System
Pressure
Gauge
Wipe the pressure gauge assembly with a soft lint-free cloth moistened
with mild detergent and water. Dry the assembly before reinstalling.
The gauge can be disinfected with ethylene oxide gas, followed by
appropriate aeration. Follow the manufacturer's instructions.
CAUTION:
The breathing system pressure gauge cannot withstand
immersion or the heat and pressure of autoclaving.
Cleaning and
Disinfecting
the Absorber
Canister
Assemblies
and Dust Cup
Refer to “Replacing the Absorbent” on page 16-2 for instructions on
removing the absorbent canister assemblies from the absorber.
Clean the canisters frequently. Remove used absorbent and clean
absorbent residues for the canister and gasket surfaces. Check the dust
cup periodically. Empty and clean it when necessary.
WARNING:
Absorbent is caustic. Avoid contact with the skin and eyes.
After removing the canister assemblies and dust cup from the absorber
system, wash these parts with mild alkali detergent and water. The
canister assemblies and dust cup can be immersed or wiped with a soft
lint-free cloth. Allow the parts to dry.
Several methods can be used for disinfection. Wet pasteurization,
autoclaving, EtO, and immersion or wiping with 2% glutaraldehyde-based
solution are all acceptable. If an EtO process is used, make sure the parts
are properly aerated before returning them to service.
Cleaning and
Disinfecting
the Absorber
Assembly
Turn the APL valve control knob fully counterclockwise before cleaning or
disinfecting the absorber system.
After cleaning, an EtO procedure can be used. Follow manufacturer's
guidelines.
CAUTION:
Do not autoclave the absorber assembly.
