Cleaning Considerations: Gold Connector Pins and Blades
In instances where there is concern of exposure to highly resistant bacteria or viruses (ie: Clostridium difficile, or “C.
diff”), we understand that hospital protocols may require use of cleaning solutions containing sodium hypochlorite
(bleach) when cleaning equipment. Please be aware solutions containing sodium hypochlorite (bleach) will corrode
the gold connector blades located on the bottom of the PLR-3000 Pupillometer handle (Figure 26), and the gold
connector pins located in the base of the PLR-3000 Charging Station (Figure 27.)
•
DO NOT
use products containing sodium hypochlorite (bleach) to clean the gold connector blades located
on the bottom of the PLR-3000 Pupillometer handle, and the gold connector pins located in the base of the
PLR-3000 Charging Station
If products containing sodium hypochlorite (bleach) are used to clean the gold connector blades located on the
bottom of the PLR-3000 Pupillometer and the gold connector pins located in the base of the PLR-3000 Charging
Station, the cleaning process should be followed by a second cleaning using 70% IPA solution to ensure that all
residue is completely removed from the device in order to minimize damage to the gold connector pins and blades.
Cleaning Considerations: Pupillometer Liquid Crystal Display (LCD)
For best protection of the liquid crystal display (LCD), use a clean, soft, lint-free cloth and 70% IPA cleaning solution to
clean the pupillometer optics.
In instances where there is concern of exposure to highly resistant bacteria or viruses (ie: Clostridium difficile, or “C.
diff”), we understand that hospital protocols may require use of cleaning solutions containing sodium hypochlorite
(bleach) when cleaning equipment. If products containing sodium hypochlorite (bleach) are used to clean the LCD of
the PLR-3000 Pupillometer, the cleaning process should be followed by a second cleaning solution with a 70% IPA
solution to ensure that all bleach residue is completely removed from the LCD using a clean, soft, lint-free cloth.
