General information
Dried or affixed surgical residues can make cleaning
more difficult or ineffective and lead to corrosion.
Therefore the time interval between application and
processing should not exceed 6 h; also, neither fixating
pre-cleaning temperatures >45 °C nor fixating disin-
fecting agents (active ingredient: aldehydes/alcohols)
should be used.
Excessive measures of neutralizing agents or basic
cleaners may result in a chemical attack and/or to fad-
ing and the laser marking becoming unreadable visu-
ally or by machine for stainless steel.
Residues containing chlorine or chlorides e.g. in surgi-
cal residues, medicines, saline solutions and in the ser-
vice water used for cleaning, disinfection and steriliza-
tion will cause corrosion damage (pitting, stress
corrosion) and result in the destruction of stainless
steel products. These must be removed by rinsing thor-
oughly with demineralized water and then drying.
Additional drying, if necessary.
Only process chemicals that have been tested and
approved (e.g. VAH or FDA approval or CE mark) and
which are compatible with the product’s materials
according to the chemical manufacturers’ recommen-
dations may be used for processing the product. All the
chemical manufacturer's application specifications
must be strictly observed. Failure to do so can result in
the following problems:
■
Optical changes of materials, e.g. fading or discol-
oration of titanium or aluminum. For aluminum,
the application/process solution only needs to be
of pH >8 to cause visible surface changes.
■
Material damage such as corrosion, cracks, fractur-
ing, premature aging or swelling.
►
Do not use metal cleaning brushes or other abra-
sives that would damage the product surfaces and
could cause corrosion.
►

material-/value-preserving reprocessing can be

Brochure – Proper maintenance of instruments.
