THE PROGRAMS AVAILABLE
GENERAL
The steam sterilizer is appropriate for almost all materials and instruments, so long as they are able to tolerate, without damage
, a minimum
temperature of 121 °C (otherwise, you will need to use other low-temperature sterilization systems).
The following material can normally
be sterilized with steam:
– Stainless steel surgical instruments;
– Carbon steel surgical/generic instruments;
– Rotating and/or vibrating instruments driven by compressed air (turbines) or mechanical transmission (counter-angles, tooth scalers, etc.);
– Glass articles;
– Mineral-based articles;
– Articles made of heat-resistant plastic;
– Articles made of heat-resistant rubber;
– Heat-resistant textiles;
– Medication materials (gauze, pads, etc.);
– Other generic material suitable for autoclave treatment.
e Depending on the conformation of the material (solid, hollow or porous), any packaging (paper/plastic envelope, sterilization paper,
container, muslin napkin, etc.) and its heat-resistance, it is indispensable that you choose the appropriate program (see Program
summary table).
The device must not be used for sterilizing fluids, liquids or pharmaceutical products.
