7 Cleaning and maintenance
7.1 Cleaning the MPR2
The MPR2 cannot be sterilised.
Please switch the apparatus off.
Please remove all cables and lines from the apparatus before
starting with cleaning and disinfecting. When removing the line, always get hold of the plug and never
pull the line. The MPR2 can be cleaned with a slightly moist cloth. Please make sure that no liquid can
penetrate into the housing through the openings or the connecting sockets because this would damage
the apparatus or would impair its operational safety.
When handling liquids, never hold the connecting sockets of the MPR2 up.
Liquids on the housing have to be wiped away with a dry cloth immediately.
Use conventional hospital disinfectants, such as Lysoformin or Helipur H plus N to disinfect the MPR2.
Detergents on a phenol basis are not permitted.
No liquids or fluids shall enter the apparatus. If this should happen nonetheless, switch the apparatus
off and disconnect from the power mains. Remove all patient connections. Dry the apparatus on the
outside. Make sure that no liquid has penetrated the housing or the plug-in connections on the bottom
of the housing.
If it is probable that liquid has penetrated the apparatus or you are in doubt about the safety of the
apparatus, have the apparatus checked by a service workshop. Subsequently a safety-related check is
necessary.
7.2 Cleaning, disinfecting and sterilising the cables and sensors
Cables are supplied unsterile and can be re-used. Please observe the recommendations below to avoid
damage or functional impairment.
7.2.1 Cleaning
•
Use a moist cloth to wipe off: If and when necessary, add conventional non-alcohol soap or
detergent to the warm water.
•
If necessary, wipe the cable with a dry cloth.
•
Clean carefully in order to prevent the rupture of internal leads by excessive bending, extension or
kneading.
•
Never lay or immerse cables in liquids or bring them into contact with detergents in order to prevent
patient or user hazards as well as functional impairments.
•
Never treat cables with oil-containing (domestic / machine oil, for example) or aggressive liquids or
detergents (such as acetone).
7.2.2 Disinfection
•
Clean the cables prior to disinfection, as described above.
•
Use conventional hospital disinfectants Lysoformin or Helipur H plus N to wipe the units. Please
observe the recommendations of the manufacturer with respect to dilution and reaction time.
•
Dry the cables under low-germ conditions.
•
Never lay or immerse cables in liquids or bring them into contact with detergents in order to prevent
patient or user hazards as well as functional impairments.
•
Do not bring contact parts into touch with disinfectants (use spray disinfectants with care as well).
7.2.3 Sterilisation
Cables cannot be treated by autoclave and cannot be sterilised with hot air.
Prior to using a cleaned, disinfected and sterilised cable, check it for its technically functional safety.
In order to prevent accidental re-use, destroy disposable adhesive electrodes immediately after use.
7.3 Cleaning the mains adapter
The mains adapter is not protected against moisture, and thus it must not get into contact with liquids.
If and when required at all, use a dry soft cloth to clean the mains adapter.
