wear protective gloves when handling potentially infectious material. Use a face shield and
gown if there is a risk of splashing or splatter.
Disinfecting the systems:
After each use, please disinfect the systems.
Ultrasound systems can be disinfected using liquid
chemical germicides. The level of disinfection is directly related to the duration of contact with the germicide.
Increased contact time produces a higher level of disinfection.
In order for liquid chemical germicides to be effective, all visible residue must be removed during the
cleaning process. Thoroughly clean the system, as described earlier before attempting disinfection.
You MUST disconnect the system from the displayer prior to cleaning/disinfecting the system. Failure to do
so could damage the system.
DO NOT soak systems in liquid chemical germicide. Soaking may cause system damage and early failure of
the enclosure, resulting in possible electric shock hazard.

Prepare the germicide solution according to the manufacturer's instructions. Be sure to follow all
precautions for storage, use and disposal. The transducer is not designed to be totally submerged in
fluid. Permanent damage will result if the entire transducer is submerged.

Place the cleaned and dried system in contact with the germicide for the time specified by the germicide
manufacturer.
Ultrasound transducers can easily be damaged by improper handling and by contact with certain chemicals.
Failure to follow these precautions can result in serious injury and equipment damage.

Avoid mechanical shock or impact to the transducer and do not apply excessive bending or pulling force
to the cable.

Transducer damage can result from contact with inappropriate coupling or cleaning agents:
• Do not soak or saturate transducers with solutions containing alcohol, bleach, ammonium
chloride compounds or hydrogen peroxide.
• Avoid contact with solutions or coupling gels containing mineral oil or lanolin.
• Avoid temperatures above 60°C. Under no circumstances should the transducer be subjected
to heat sterilization method. Exposure to temperatures above 60º C will cause permanent
damage to the transducer.

Inspect the system prior to use for damage or degeneration to the housing, strain relief, lens and seal.
Do not use a damaged or defective system.
Coupling gels
DO NOT use gels (lubricants) that are not recommended. They may damage the system and void the
warranty.
AQUASONIC Gel made by R. P. Kincheloe Company in USA is recommended.
