Step 3 Pack cable
1. Select an appropriately sized
steam-permeable sterilisation
peel pouch for the cable.
2. Pack the cable into the peel
pouch.
3. Seal the peel pouch according to
the manufacturer’s instructions.
The cables can be double packed
in another steam-permeable
sterilisation peel pouch if
desired.
Always pack the cables into appropriately sized, steam-permeable
sterilisation pouches with one cable only in each pouch for sterilisation.
Failure to do so could result in damage or ineective sterilisation.
Do not coil the cable too tightly when packing into a peel pouch as this
could result in damage to the cable. The coil diameter should be at least
16 mm.
