Ophthalmology
Ophthalmic instruments should only by reprocessed in a
washer-disinfector specifically dedicated for this application.
This way there is no risk of residues from other disciplines being
deposited in narrow lumened hollow instruments.
Synthetic cover nets, e.g. Miele A2 or A3 cover nets, must not be
used in this washer-disinfector.
When reprocessing ophthalmic instruments do not dispense
rinsing agent.
Ophthalmological instruments should only be reprocessed in mobile
injector units designed for them.
Mobile units are supplied with their own operating instructions.
Programme
selection
Special programmes matched to the mobile injector units are stored
for reprocessing ophthalmological instruments. Disinfection is carried
out thermally.
Mobile injector unit
A 204
The mobile injector unit A 204 is divided into two levels; it has a spray
arm and may only be used with the Ophthalmic programme.
The top level is fitted with various connections for hollow instruments
such as rinsing and suction hand-pieces, and cannulae.
The lower level of the mobile injector unit is designed to take inserts
and mesh trays for reprocessing instruments without lumen.
Mobile injector unit
A 207
The mobile injector unit A 207 has 3 levels with 2 spray arms and may
only be used with the OphthaTraysA207 programme.
An injector bar with silicone hoses with Luer Lock connectors is
located on the upper level. Trays and mesh trays for ophthalmological
theatre sets with injector bars can be connected to this.
The two lower levels are designed to take inserts and mesh trays for
reprocessing instruments without lumen.
Water quality
For the final rinse, use de-ionised water with a conductivity level of
~15μS/cm. The demineralised water must have a low endotoxin and
pyrogen content.
