Measuring prism - what time of usage?
• Due to the number of variables involved (type and concen-
tration of disinfecting material used, number of patients, hand-
ling, etc.) it is almost impossible to put a figure on the number
of times and / or period of time that a measuring prism can
safely be used.
• Haag-Streit recommend that no measuring prism may be used
longer than two years under 'normal' conditions, i.e. as per the
instructions contained within this instruction manual.
• A measuring prism may be retained indefinitely as a spare part
under room temperatures and protected from sun exposure,
deterioration does not start until it is used for the first time.
• This recommended time is overruled if the prism is in any way
damaged within this period of time; damaged prisms should
be replaced immediately.
