Periodic testing and validation
It is a requirement of decontamination guidelines that the
Hygea 2850VM
ultrasonic
bath is periodically tested and validated to ensure optimum performance as outlined in
HTM01-05 and HTM2030.
The following pages outline Ultrawave (the manufacturer’s) guidelines for the periodic
testing of the
Hygea 2850VM
ultrasonic bath. The frequency and nature of these tests
are recommended as the minimum protocols that should be followed in order to ensure
optimum performance of the bath and to adhere to applicable regulations and
guidelines. In some cases, more frequent testing schedules may be stipulated.
1.
Weekly tests
(carried out by the operator)
Cleaning efficacy test using the Brownes STF Load Check Indicator strips and holders
(available from Ultrawave).
2. Monthly tests
(carried out by the operator)
Ultrasonic activity test using the Hygea Ultrasonic Energy Meter (available from
Ultrawave). If there is no access to the Energy Meter, this test should be replaced by
the aluminium foil ablation test.
3. Quarterly tests
(carried out by the operator/Estates department)
Ultrasonic activity test using the aluminium foil ablation test (available from Ultrawave).
4. Annual Validation Tests
(carried out by Ultrawave approved engineer)
A combination of tests ensuring correct and accurate operation of all components of the
Hygea 2850VM
(including automatic control tests, cleaning efficacy, ultrasonic activity
tests, electrical safety test, diagnostic test etc.)
Note: Each test should also include the test(s) itemised above as the less frequent tests.
Eg. When conducting the quarterly test, the weekly and monthly tests should also be
carried out as part of the same routine.
