Autoclaving - Roth Rotilabo II Mode D'emploi

14. Autoclaving

The instrument can be autoclaved at 121 °C (250 °F), 2 bar with a hold time of at least 15 minutes
according to DIN EN 285.
Preparation for autoclaving
1. The instrument must be carefully cleaned prior to autoclaving (see
‚Cleaning', page 40-41).
2. Open the closure cap on the discharge tube (Fig. 1).
3. Check that the filling valve is securely seated (Fig. 2).
4. To ensure unhindered access for the steam and to prevent the ball
valve in the filling valve from possibly becoming stuck, hold the
instrument with the discharge piston pressed vertically downward,
and gently tap against the casing with your hand (Fig. 3).
Then lay it horizontally in the autoclave. Be sure to avoid the
instrument coming into contact with metal surfaces in the
autoclave!
Note:
Do not reassemble the instrument until it has cooled down to
room temperature (Cooling time approx. 2 hours).
After every autoclaving, inspect all parts for deformities or
damage. If necessary, replace them.
It is the user's responsibility to ensure effective autoclaving.
