3. Setting up your HYDRIM
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
• To open the wash chamber door if the door is locked and the unit is not functional,
release the lever located on the top edge of the door and pull the door open. (For more
detail, see section 4.9 Opening the door in case of a power failure.)
• Ensure that HIP™ Ultra cleaning solution (instrument wash chemical) is available.
All other supplies are included with your unit.
• The HYDRIM C61wd G4 is heavy (44 kg). Exercise caution when moving it.
• The HYDRIM C61wd G4 must be properly grounded.
• The HYDRIM C61wd G4 is equipped with an air gap / anti-suction device to prevent
backflow of dirty water into the water supply. No other air gap device is necessary.
3.1 Installation
Installation should only be undertaken by a SciCan approved technician. The use of an
unapproved installer may invalidate the warranty. A separate pre-installation checklist
should have been supplied by your dealer. Please review this prior to approving installation.
If the HYDRIM C61wd G4 is installed in a sterilization center, the manufacturer of the
sterilization center should allow enough space at the top, back and both sides of the unit
to facilitate installation, leveling, and service access to the unit.
Do not move the HYDRIM C61wd G4 into place by maneuvering the open wash chamber
door. This may cause the door to become misaligned and can cause leakage.
During installation, all consumables should have been added to the machine as approriate.
It is important to check that this has been undertaken before starting the machine.
3.2 Handling and installing the HIP™ Ultra cleaning solution
The HIP™ Ultra cleaning solution is used in dilute form as a detergent for the cleaning of
surgical instruments in the HYDRIM range of washers and washer disinfectors. It is a
colourless and almost odourless liquid which is completely soluble in water.
The ph range is between 9.3 – 9.8 and the solution is therefore mildly alkaline. It is therefore
advised that certain precautionary measures are observed when handling during the loading
of the solution into the machine, and when removing and disposing of the empty bag.

Page 9
3. Setting up your HYDRIM
Recommended precautionary measures with regard to safe handling of HIP™ Ultra cleaning
solution.
• Always wear undamaged gloves made of natural or butyl rubber, nitrile, or neoprene
(Surgical gloves are ideal).
• Always wear eye protection.
• Protect exposed skin on arms.
• If solution is spilled on clothing, remove the item of clothing and wash affected skin with
plenty of water, in accordance with the Material Safety Data Sheet requirements.
• Use good industrial hygiene practices in handling this material. When handling,
do not eat or drink.
• After handling the product, remove and dispose of gloves and wash hands prior to
removing eye protection.
• Do not use the personal protective equipment you use for clinical activities to handle
HIP™ products.
• Always ensure that personal protective equipment, if contaminated with HIP™ Ultra
cleaning solution, is cleaned, or disposed of as appropriate.
For comprehensive data on HIP™ Ultra cleaning solution, please visit SciCan.com to view
or download a PDF of the Material Safety Data Sheet.

3.3 Water quality
The quality of the water being used in the HYDRIM to clean the instruments is very critical
to achieving satisfactory cleaning results and to protecting the instruments and the internal
parts of the unit from deterioration.
Drinking water typically contains many dissolved solids. The amount of dissolved solids
greatly depends on the local natural geological conditions and they can cause stains, spots
and corrosion on instruments and on the internal parts of the HYDRIM. Among others, Iron,
Manganese, Chloride, and Calcium Carbonate (CaCO3) are the dominant dissolved solids
that affect the cleaning results when using a washer-disinfector.
Iron and Manganese can cause orange and brown or black stains on the instruments and
on the internal parts of the HYDRIM. Chloride is usually responsible for causing stains,
spotting, pitting and scaling. If the instruments or the inner parts of the HYDRIM C61wd,
such as the chamber, show any of these spots or stains, a water test may be required to
determine the cause. The installation of a water treatment system may be required to
reduce the amount of dissolved solids in the water and to improve the cleaning
performance of the HYDRIM.
Calcium Carbonate is the principal cause of water hardness and leaves white spots or
scales. The HYDRIM is equipped with a built-in water softening system that must be
adjusted according to the local water hardness. Please see section 3.4 of this manual for
recommended regeneration settings.
Before using the HYDRIM, SciCan recommends testing the water and recording the results
for water hardness, pH value, and water conductivity for future references in the pre-
installation and installation documents.
IMPORTANT: The HYDRIM's water softening system reduces the water hardness by
taking out Calcium Carbonate. If your water testing results show that your water hardness
is outside the unit's range of adjustment, or if other dissolved solids in the water cause
stains or deposits on the instruments or chamber, an external water treatment system may
be required.

3.4 Testing water quality
The HYDRIM C61wd G4 is equipped with
a built-in water softening system that must
be adjusted according to the local water
hardness. To read local water hardness,
proceed as follows:
The water test kit included with your
HYDRIM contains three water
hardness test strips in bags. Take a
water sample from the location where
the machine will be installed.
1. Open one of the bags, remove the
test strip and dip it into the water.
2. Compare the color of the strip with
the chart on the back of the bag
Determine the water hardness
according to the chart on the water
test kit envelope.
3. Power the unit on and select the
Settings key from the main menu.
4. Go to the Setup Menu and select
“Set Regeneration”.
5. Using the up and down arrows, set the
water softener regeneration level
according to the water hardness table
in this section. If your water hardness
falls between two settings, select the
higher setting.
6. Unscrew the water softener container
lid from the bottom left of the chamber
and pour 0.5 litres of water into the
water softener container.
7. Add 0.5 kg of water softening salt to
the water softener container, using
the supplied funnel to prevent any salt
from spilling into the chamber, and close
by screwing the lid tightly back into place. An improper seal can lead to corrosion.
*Please note: The water test strip is only accurate up to 250 ppm. If the reading on the test strip exceeds
250 ppm and/or if the location in which the HYDRIM is installed has known water quality problems, having
a more detailed and accurate water test done by a test lab is strongly recommended.

3.23 Connecting to a network
The HYDRIM C61wd G4 has a 10/100Base-T Ethernet port located at the back of the unit.
To connect your HYDRIM to a network using a router, follow these steps:
1. Connect your network cable to the Ethernet port at the back of the unit. If your office
uses a router, the router should automatically assign the unit an IP address. A red X on the
network icon means the unit is not connected. A yellow check mark means the unit has
an IP address but is not connected to the Internet and cannot send emails. A green check
mark means the Internet connection is set up properly and the unit can send out emails.
NOTE: In some circumstances, where you do not have a router, for example when using
Windows Network Sharing, you may have to assign a dedicated or ‘static’ IP address.
To assign a static IP address, contact your local network administrator.
2. From the main screen, press the Network icon. The Network screen displays information
about your HYDRIM’s connectivity, including its IP address.

3. Type the IP address displayed on the touchscreen into the browser of any web enabled
device to access your unit’s web portal. When the Network icon is active (for example when
sending email) it will turn green.
NOTE: Use QR code if connecting to a mobile device.
NOTE: Connection time will vary depending on your network speed, and making an initial
connection can take longer.
3.24 Connecting to a wireless network
HYDRIM models offer Wireless capability for connecting units to the G4 network, adding

4.1 Instrument reprocessing recommendations
The HYDRIM C61wd G4 is designed to clean, or clean and thermally disinfect,
(depending on the cycle chosen) general dental and medical instruments. The disinfection
level (A0=3000 and higher) is intended to reduce the number of viable microorganisms on
a product to a level appropriate for its intended further handling or use depending on
requirements specified by regional or national authorities. Regulatory authorities may specify
more stringent requirements within the territories for which they are responsible.
For non-invasive medical devices, SciCan recommends terminal sterilization after
processing in the HYDRIM according to regional guidelines.
For invasive medical devices, such as dental handpieces, terminal sterilization
must be performed after processing in the HYDRIM C61wd G4.
Note: Prior to placing instruments in the HYDRIM and using the optional
handpiece adaptor, consult the instrument manufacturer’s reprocessing
instructions for suitabability and cleaning in a thermal-disinfector. If in doubt,
seek the advice of the instrument manufacturer.
Examples of medical and dental instruments suitable for cleaning and disinfecting in the HYDRIM include:
• Stainless steel scalers, spatulas and hemostats.
• Stainless steel retractors, needle holders, skin hooks, tissue forceps, scissors, curettes,
and other stainless steel instruments free of deep cavities.
For best results, instruments processed in the HYDRIM should have the following properties:
• Heat resistance to a temperature of up to 95°C.
• Corrosion resistance in the presence of heat.
Microkeratomes, phaco tubing, fiberoptics and electrical equipment should not be
processed in the HYDRIM.
Nickel-plated instruments, or instruments containing aluminum or colour anodized aluminum
as well as single use instruments are not suited for processing in the HYDRIM.
HIP™ Ultra (HYDRIM cleaning solution with Instrument Protection) has been carefully
formulated to provide outstanding material compatibility with a wide range of metals and
coatings. However, some manufacturers’ instruments may not be compatible.
Some instrument manufacturers make their instruments with special coatings, which may
not be suitable for use in an automatic instrument washer-disinfector. Please consult the
instrument manufacturer for their recommended cleaning procedures of these instruments.
In general, it is not recommended to process carbon steel and chrome-plated instruments
in the HYDRIM C61wd G4.
When processing small or light objects in the HYDRIM C61wd G4, use the basket with lid.
Do not put dental burrs in the HYDRIM C61wd G4.
