Chapter 1: Maintenance Procedures
This chapter covers how to properly clean Rad-97.
WARNING: Electrical shock and flammability hazard. Before cleaning Rad-97, always turn the unit off and disconnect the power cord from the back of the unit.
CAUTION: Do not autoclave, pressure sterilize, or gas sterilize Rad-97.
CAUTION: Do not soak or immerse Rad-97 in any liquid.
CAUTION: Use the cleaning solution sparingly. Allow unit to air dry. Excessive solution can flow into Rad-97 and cause damage to internal components.
CAUTION: Do not touch, press, or rub the display panels with abrasive cleaning compounds, instruments, brushes, rough-surface materials, or bring them into contact with
anything that could scratch the panel.
CAUTION: Do not use petroleum-based or acetone solutions, or other harsh solvents, to clean Rad-97. These substances attack the device’s materials and device failure
can result.
Cleaning
Rad-97 is a non-sterile and reusable device. The surface of the Rad-97 should be cleaned when the device is visibly dirty, before and after each procedure, and/or according
to hospital practice.
Do not allow liquids to enter the interior of Rad-97. Using the recommended cleaning solutions on the touchscreen will not affect the performance of Rad-97.
To clean the device:
1. Disconnect the AC Power Supply and ensure the sensor is not applied to the patient.
2. Wipe the outer surfaces using a dampened soft cloth with one of the recommended cleaning solutions twice or until the surfaces are free of any visible residue.
3. Dry the device thoroughly prior to using on a patient.
The surfaces of the Rad-97 may be cleaned with the following solvents or cleaning agents:
• 70% Isopropyl Alcohol
• Glutaraldehyde
• 10% bleach (5% - 5.25% sodium hypochlorite) to 90% water solution
• Quaternary ammonium chloride solutions
• 0.5% hydrogen peroxide
CAUTION: Do not use undiluted bleach (5% - 5.25% sodium hypochlorite) or any cleaning solution other than those recommended here because permanent damage to the
device may occur.
CAUTION: To prevent damage, do not soak or immerse the device in any liquid solution.
CAUTION: Do not sterilize by irradiation, steam, and autoclave or ethylene oxide.
Vent Cleaning
The following procedure applies to Version 1 of Rad-97. Version 2 does not have these vents.
Vents may be cleaned using a small vacuum with brush attachment.
To clean, vacuum over the vents using a brush attachment, if available, to clear any debris.
