For a pump that has been in an Isolation Area, select those agents from Table

disinfected. The following are procedures for cleaning accessible areas of the
pump. Do not use hard instruments for cleaning.
1. Lift the door latch to the open position. Open the door and press the
safety clamp latch until it locks in the open position.
2. Using a cotton swab dampened with one of the agents listed in Table 6-1,
clean all tubing guides and tubing channels from the top of the pump to
the exit point below the safety clamp.
3. Clean all surfaces in the pump head which may contact the tubing.
4. Clean all surfaces of the air sensor located just above the safety clamp.
This area must be completely dry and free of foreign matter prior to
reuse.
Do not use hard instruments for cleaning. Do not spray cleaners directly into any
openings or gaps in the pump housing.
Do not use the following chemicals on the pump, as they will damage the front
panel: acetoaldehyde, acetone, ammonia, benzene, hydroxytoluene, methylene
chloride, and ozone. Do not use cleaners containing n-alkyl dimethyl ethyl benzyl
ammonium chloride.
