Cleaning and Disinfecting the Analyzer
The surfaces of the TEG analyzer must be wiped down and disinfected weekly,
or more frequently, as needed. Use laboratory medical disinfecting procedures
to prevent contamination of the analyzer and limit potential exposure of
bloodborne pathogens to operating personnel.
Products containing a 70% isopropyl alcohol solution are recommended, and
commonly-used germicidal disposable wipes (PDI Super Sani-Cloth
®
or
equivalent) are effective and will not cause damage to the TEG analyzer when
used according to manufacturer’s instructions.
The TEG analyzer must also be cleaned and disinfected prior to return
shipment if servicing is necessary. For further information, see
“Product return
guidelines” on page 12 .
All materials used for disinfecting should be disposed of in the proper
biohazard waste receptacles.
Caution:

Turn off the analyzer and unplug it from the wall before cleaning.

Do not steam-sterilize or autoclave the analyzer or any cartridge.

Do not immerse the analyzer or cartridge in any solution.

Do not clean the analyzer or cartridge with acetone or any other plastic
solvent or abrasive cleaner.
Note: If there is any doubt about the compatibility of decontamination or
cleaning agents with parts of the device or with material contained within it, the
Administrator or Laboratory Supervisor may consult with Haemonetics or an
authorized distributor regarding such use.
