9.3.2. Disinfections
All parts of the equipment, including accessories and connecting cables, can be disinfected by wiping them
with a cloth dampened with disinfectant, such as 75% alcohol. Never use corrosive or solvent disinfectants
since it could cause damage to the equipment. If you are in doubt of the nature of a disinfecting agent, do
not use it.
Flammable or potentially explosive disinfecting sprays must not be used since the mixed
gas could ignite and cause personal injury and /or damage to equipment.
Disinfecting medical equipment rooms by means of sprays is not recommended since the
sprays can penetrate the equipment, which causes electrical short circuit or corrosion.
If the nonflammable, non-explosive spray disinfectants are necessary to disinfect the rooms, the
equipment must be switched off and allowed to cool first, which prevents the disinfectant from spraying
into the equipment due to convection. Plastic sheeting must be used to cover the equipment thoroughly,
following which disinfectant spraying can take place.
Once all traces of the disinfectant spray have dispersed, the plastic sheeting can be removed and the
equipment itself can be disinfected in the recommended way.
If a spray has been used, the operator must make sure that all traces of the vapor have been dispersed
before switching the equipment on again.
Disinfection techniques for both the equipment and the room must comply with all applicable laws and
regulations that are in force within the jurisdiction in which the equipment is located.
