12.7.1 Washer-Disinfector (D1)
To minimize the effect on the environment,
MAQUET recommends only using water when
disinfecting the equipment. This is best
performed in a washer-disinfector (with A
0
value 600), typically at a maximum
temperature ranging from 90
o
C to 95
o
C (194
o
F
to 203
o
F).
If detergents are used with the
washer-disinfector, MAQUET recommends
detergents with a pH <10. The following
detergents have been validated:
• neodisher MediClean forte
1. Connect the special cleaning adapters to
the patient cassette.
2. Connect the special cleaning adapters to
the washer-disinfector water outlet using
connective tubings.

to the patient end of the volume reflector
