The STERLINK
®
FPS-15s Plus sterilizer is designed for sterilization of both metal and nonmetal
medical devices at low temperatures. The sterilization process is a multiphase sterilization process
that utilizes a combination of exposure to hydrogen peroxide vapor and plasma to complete the
sterilization cycle.
The sterilizer can sterilize instruments which have diffusion-restricted spaces, such as the hinged
portion of forceps and scissors. Medical devices with the following materials and dimensions can
be processed in the STERLINK
®
FPS-15s Plus sterilization cycles:
∎ Single-channel stainless steel lumens with an inside diameter of 0.7 mm or larger and a length
of 500 mm or shorter.
∎ Single-channel stainless steel lumens with an inside diameter of 2 mm or larger and a length
of 1,500 mm or shorter.
∎ Single-channel Teflon/PTFE lumens with an inside diameter of 1 mm or larger and a length
of 2,000 mm or shorter.
CAUTION! KNOW WHAT YOU CAN PROCESS.
Before processing items in the sterilizer, make sure you know how the STERLINK
®
FPS-15s Plus sterilization process will affect the items. If you have questions, or if you
are in doubt about the materials in your device, contact the medical device
manufacturer or your local Plasmapp customer support representative for more
information.
CAUTION! RISK OF WARRANTY VIOLATION.
Improper processing may limit liability for damage to processed instruments. The
manufacturer can not warrant the damage of the instruments due to improper use.
