Daily and Long-Term Storage
Follow these guidelines to protect your transducer:
• Always store transducers in the transducer holders on the side of your system or on a
securely mounted wall rack when you are not using them.
• Ensure the transducer holders are clean before storing transducers (see “Disinfecting
System Surfaces” on page 290).
• Avoid storing transducers in areas of temperature extremes or in direct sunlight.
• Store transducers separately from other instruments to avoid inadvertent transducer
damage.
• When storing transducers, use the cable-management clips to secure the transducer cable.
• Before storing transducers, make sure they are thoroughly dry.
• For TEE transducers, be sure the distal tip is straight and protected before storing the
transducer.
• Never store a TEE transducer in the carrying case, except to transport it.
