Disinfection
Do not use products containing acetone, chlorine or bleach as
disinfectants. When applying disinfection sprays/wipes, follow the
instructions for use of these materials.
FOR GERMAN USERS:
In order to efficiently reprocess dental handpieces, internal cleaning and
disinfection can be achieved through the use of ALPRO WL-clean*, ALPRO
WL-cid* and ALPRO WL-dry*.
Mechanical External and Internal Cleaning and Disinfection
In Europe, a validated washer/disinfector such as Hydrim C51wd or M2 is
recommended. In all cases the instruments need to be thoroughly dried
after the automated washing process.
Be aware of the possible risks from the moist environment of the thermal
cleaning and disinfection unit, when leaving the instruments for extended
periods in the chamber with an unopened door.
Drying
Manual Drying
Apply dry air to the internal and external surfaces until surface water is no
longer visible.
Mechanical Drying
Normally thermal washer/disinfectors have an automatic drying
programme included. Units with active drying for internal lumens are
recommended.
