STERRAD STERILIZATION SYSTEM GUIDELINES:
The probes listed above may be sterilized with the Sterrad 100S, Sterrad 200, Sterrad NX and/or Sterrad 100NX (where indicated) sterilization systems (see charts above). The general processing instructions in the “Sterrad 100S, Sterrad 200, Sterrad NX and/or Sterrad 100NX Sterilization System Operator’s Manual(s)” should be followed. Probes must be cleaned to remove contaminating substances prior to sterilization. After each use, perform initial cleaning within the sterile field by wiping the probe free of blood and body fluids.
CLEANING PROCESS:
Wipe probe & cable down with a damp cloth using an enzymatic cleaner. Wipe the probe and cable again using a damp cloth of warm water or alcohol before placing in the sterilizer.
STERILIZATION: Per recommended Sterrad 100S, Sterrad 200, Sterrad NX and/or Sterrad 100NX procedures using a Sterrad brand or Sterrad compatible trays.
WARNING: Sterilize according to instructions for the Sterrad 100S, Sterrad 200, Sterrad NX, and/or Sterrad 100NX Model(s). Do not sterilize the Doppler probes listed above by steam autoclaving. Steam sterilization is likely to damage the plastic probe tip and piezo-electric crystals. Utilize Koven/Hadeco probe number ACP-8 for steam autoclaving. Do not soak or submerse the probe in liquid. Do not use Cidex.
Failure to use approved cleaning & sterilization procedures may void the warranty
