Cleaning, disinfection and sterilization

Instructions for use Primus Infinity Empowered SW 4.5n
Visual inspection
Check all items for damage and external signs of
wear, such as cracking, embrittlement, or pro-
nounced hardening, and residual dirt.
Sterilization
Sterilization frees semicritical medical devices from
living microorganisms and dries residual water in
the items’ interior spaces.
z Only sterilize cleaned and disinfected items.
For sterilization, use a vacuum steam sterilizer (in
accordance with DIN EN 285), preferably with frac-
tionated vacuum.
NOTE
If the ventilator diaphragm is reprocessed to-
gether with light-colored, transparent silicone
components, discoloration of these silicone com-
ponents may occur.
Do not reprocess the specified components to-
gether.
CAUTION
Risk of faulty components
Even accessories designed to be reused and re-
movable device parts have a limited service life.
Handling and reprocessing can increase wear
and markedly shorten service life (e.g., disinfect-
ant residues can attack the material more in-
tensely during autoclaving).
If signs of wear become visible, such as cracks,
deformation, discoloration, peeling, etc., affected
accessories must be replaced.
