Minimizing the Effects of Residual Disinfectant
If you use an OPA (ortho-phthalaldehyde) based disinfectant, residual solution may remain on
your transducers if you do not carefully follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
To minimize the effects from residual OPA, or any other disinfectant, Philips recommends the
