Wash pressure and spray arm monitoring
The washer-disinfector is equipped with a sensor for monitoring the
wash pressure during the active cleaning process stages.
Spray pressure monitoring is carried out according to the general val-
idation guideline and routine monitoring of machine cleaning and dis-
infection processes for thermostable medical devices of the Deutsche
Gesellschaft fuer Krankenhaushygiene e.V. (German Society for Hos-
pital Hygiene) (DHKG), the Deutsche Gesellschaft fuer Sterilgutversor-
gung e.V. (German society for sterile supplies) (DGSV) and the Arbeit-
skreis Instrumentenaufbereitung (Instrument Reprocessing Working
Group) (AKI) in accordance with EN ISO 15883.
The result of the spray pressure monitoring is recorded via the pro-
cess documentation.
Spray arm speed can also be monitored, e.g. for prompt detection of
blockages due to misloading or foam in the water circulation system.
Spray arm monitoring can be activated or deactivated by the W&H
Customer Service Department.
