Integrated Heat Disinfection
The machine can perform a heat disinfection that is integrated with the
central water system, which allows the water inlet tube to be included into
the disinfection process.
During this integrated heat disinfection, the machine automatically switches
on and receives hot water from the central water system. It can also be
switched on manually, if required.
Disinfection and Rinsing (cont.)
Six disinfection processes can be performed on the AK 98 System:
1. Heat + CleanCart C Cartridge: ~51 minutes to perform a decalcification, heat disinfection and drain the system.
2. Full Heat Citric: ~ 54 minutes to perform a decalcification, heat disinfection and drain the system.
3. Short Heat Citric: ~ 27 minutes to perform a decalcification and heat disinfection without draining the system.
4. Heat + CleanCart A Cartridge: ~51 minutes to perform a cleaning, heat disinfection and drain the system.
5. Bleach: ~ 50 minutes to perform a cleaning, chemical disinfection and drain the system. NOTE: Percentage of Hypochlorite
is up to 10% settable in Presets.
6. Heat: ~ 40 minutes to perform a heat disinfection and drain the system.

Chemical Disinfection
1. Select the “Chemical” tab from the Disinfection/
Rinse menu.
2. Select the disinfectant.
3. Connect the blue concentrate connector to the
yellow wand.
4. Place the wand inside the disinfectant solution.
5. When the machine has pulled in the appropriate amount of disinfectant
solution, a message will be displayed and an alarm will sound.
Disconnect the concentrate connector from the wand and connect it to
the port on the machine.
Note: After a chemical disinfection program, a test for chemical
disinfect residual must be performed prior to connecting a
patient to ensure that no residues exist. Residual chemicals
can cause harm to a patient. Use an appropriate test method,
with proven sensitivity for the chemical used.
