Steelco washer disinfectors are designed to comply with the European EN ISO 15883-1/2 guidelines on decontamination and are classified CE medical device (Community Rule 93/42/EEC).
A: It is essential to
consider the type of detergent and rinse solutions used for optimal performance
of Steelco washers. Here is a brief explanation:
- Detergent or Enzymatic Solution (Neodisher Forte Detergent):
- Purpose:
Ensures deposits and proteins are removed from instruments.
- Benefits:
- Excellent material compatibility and universally
applicable.
- Reliably removes residues of dried and denatured
blood.
- Prevents redeposition of protein residues.
- Neutralizing
Rinse Agent (
Neodisher N):
- Purpose:
Maintains proper pH levels to prevent carryover and degradation of
instrument materials.
- Benefits:
- Neutralizes carried over alkali residues.
- Removes lime residues or other acid-soluble residues
during automated reprocessing.
- Rinse
Aid (
Neodisher MediKlar):
- Purpose:
Ensures lubrication of instrument joints, prevents scale build-up, and
promotes quick and complete drying.
- Benefits:
- Provides rapid, stain-free drying of surgical
instruments, including ophthalmological instruments, anesthesia
utensils, containers, and implants.
- Significantly shortens drying time.
Recommendation: Always refer to the
Instructions for Use (IFUs) and consider the specific items being processed.
Chemicals can mitigate issues with poor water quality, but severe water quality
problems must be addressed before using washers. Testing water quality is typically
done before the construction and installation of equipment to meet the
specifications required for surgery centers.
