The electronic components can be disinfected by wiping and must under
no circumstances be immersed in a cleaning solution or cleaned with
cleaning liquids or cleaning sprays containing solvents (see:
Wipe disinfection is only permissible when the unit is switched off and
the unplugged charging power pack.
Recommended wipe disinfectants:
Mikrozid Wipes, Mikrozid PAA (cleaning wipes soaked with Mikrozid)
Schülke & Mayr or comparable.
Composition approx. 25% ethanol, 35% propanol.
If possible, a mechanical workflow (WD, washer-disinfector) should
be used for cleaning and disinfection. of semi critical components.
Manual cleaning even when using an ultrasonic bath
should only be used if a mechanical cleaning process is not available.
In this case, the significantly lower effectiveness and reproducibility
of a manual process must be taken into account.
The instructions of the detergent and disinfectant manufacturers
with regard to concentration, temperature, immersion time and
rinsing must be observed.
Please use only freshly prepared solutions, as well as exclusively
sterile or low contaminated water (max. 10 germs/ml) as well as low
endotoxin contaminated water (max. 0.25 endotoxin units/ml), e.g.
purified/highly purified water and a soft, clean and lint-free cloth

8.2. Manual cleaning and disinfection
When selecting cleaning and disinfecting agents, the following points
must be observed:
■
Basic suitability for cleaning instruments made of metal or plastic.
If an ultrasonic bath is used: suitability of the cleaning agent for ultrasonic
cleaning (no foam formation).
■
Use of a suitable disinfectant with tested effectiveness (for example.
approval/registration by VAH/DGHM or FDA/EPA or CE marking),
compatible with the cleaning agent used.
■
Combined cleaning agents and disinfectants should not be used.
Only in the case of exceptionally low contamination (no visible contamination)
combined cleaning agents and disinfectants can be used.
