1.6. Enbio PRO sterilization parameters
The table below shows the characteristics of each sterilization program in Enbio
PRO. It is the user's responsibility to select a program suitable for the type of load
and not to exceed the maximum weight of the sterilized load. Failure to observe the
following precautions may compromise patient health and device operation.
* Ambient temperature can have an effect on increasing the total
process time.
* The total duration of the first process may be longer due to the
need for the appliance chamber to warm up.
** After sterilization at 134°C FAST the loads are wet. It is
recommended to leave the drawer ajar in order to evaporate the
remaining water and to lower the temperature of the instruments.
** After sterilization in the 134°C FAST program, the instruments are
intended for immediate use.
