Maintenance Cleaning and Disinfection
5. Cleaning
a. Wash each component using a recommended cleaning agent (see TABLE 7-2 on page 7-
8).
b. Rinse with clean, hot water, and allow to dry.
c. After all components are completely dry, verify that the valve disc and the prongs of the
valve cage are undamaged before disinfection or re-assembly and functional testing.
d. If disinfecting the valve components, continue with step 6, otherwise skip to step 7.
6. Disinfection
NOTE: Ensure that all valve components have been cleaned as described in
step 5 before disinfecting.
Use an approved disinfecting agent (see TABLE 7-3 on page 7-9 and TABLE 7-4 on page 7-9)
for all valve components while adhering to facility policies and procedures.
7. Reassembly
Reassemble the valve components in the reverse order, noting any previously stated CAU-
TION. Prior to use after cleaning or disinfecting, power up the system and follow the on-
screen prompts to perform the leak test and the compliance test (see section 4.5 (page 4-8)
"Leak and Compliance Tests").
