Instructions on:

Cleaning should be done once per week or after 20 cycles, clean and
descale the chamber, copper tubes and the reservoir using Chamber BriteTM.
Cleaning is an important part of maintaining your sterilizer. Cleaning the
autoclave chamber is a very simple, but important procedure to keep your
sterilizer operating properly. If the autoclave is not cleaned regularly, dirt
and debris will build up and clog the tubing and valves. This dirt can also
be transmitted to the instruments during sterilization. In addition, a layer
of dirt on the stainless steel chamber traps moisture against the metal
and will lead to the chamber becoming porous and failing
Why is cleaning important?

CHAMBER BRITE™ is a cleaning and
descaling agent designed specifically for
the cleaning and removal of water
deposits, oxides and other sediments
that are found in steam sterilizers. The
material is a combination of acidic salts
and additional cleaning materials.
What is Chamber BriteTM?

•Soft cloth or sponge
•Drain hose (to drain water reservoir)
•Pail (to drain reservoir water into)
•Gloves
•Nonabrasive stainless steel cleaner
(for trays and tray rack)
•Steam distilled water
Items you will need to have on hand:
•Chamber Brite™
•For EZ9Plus models use one packet of CHAMBER BRITE™.
•For EZ11Plus models use one packet of CHAMBER BRITE™.

Important things to remember:
•NEVER use bleach, steel wool, a steel brush or anything
abrasive to scrub or clean the Chamber.
•Do NOT sterilize instruments during the chamber cleaning
process.
•Before using Chamber Brite, the autoclave chamber MUST be
cold. If the chamber is hot, Chamber Brite will react and give
off an odor .
•All steps in this procedure must be completed without
interruption.

Step 1
When the autoclave chamber is COLD,
remove instruments trays and the tray
holder from the autoclave. ( Starting with
a hot chamber can result in burning of
the Chamber Brite and the release of a
strong odor.)

Step 2
Open the door and spread the
contents of one packet of Chamber
Brite™ in a straight even line along
the bottom of the chamber, from back
to front. Do not leave a pile of
Chamber Brite in one spot.

Step 3
Select the Chamber Brite
Cleaning program, Close the
door and start the cycle.

Step 4
At the end of the cycle open the
door and drain the water
from the reservoir.

Step 5
Fill the reservoir with steam
distilled water or mineral free
water only.
