CLEANING, DISINFECtION AND StERILISAtION
7.2.2 Cleaning Control
Once the cleaning operations have been completed, visually inspect the optical protection under
an adequate source of light, if necessary using a magnifying glass 2.5X, paying attention to the
details that could conceal dirt residue (threading, cavities, grooves) and, if necessary, repeat the
cleaning cycle if dirt is still visible. Finally, check the integrity of those parts and those elements
that could have deteriorated during use.
7.2.3 Drying
thoroughly dry all parts of the optical protection with a soft low fibre release cloth, possibly
blowing with compressed air.
7.2.4 Sterilisation
CAUTION: Carry out sterilisation only in a steam autoclave. Do not use any other
sterilisation procedures (dry heat, radiation, ethylene oxide, gas, low-temperature plasma, etc.).
CAUTION: the optical protections are made from materials able to withstand a maximum
temperature of 135°C for a maximum period of 20 minutes.
! WARNING: Infections control - Sterilisable parts. To avoid infection by bacteria or
viruses, carefully remove any remaining organic dirt prior to sterilisation.
7.2.4.1 Sterilisation Method
Seal the optical protection individually in a disposable bag for sterilisation and proceed with the
process of sterilisation in a steam autoclave.
The sterilization process, in a steam autoclave, guarantees SAL 10
indicated below:
• type of cycle: 3 times Pre-vacum (pressure min. 60 mBar).
• Minimum sterilisation temperature: 132 °C (interval 0 °C ÷ +3 °C).
• Minimum sterilisation time: 4 minutes.
• Minimum drying time: 20 minutes.
All stages of sterilisation must be performed by the operator in compliance with the current
revision standards: UNI EN ISO 17665-1, UNI EN ISO 556-1 and ANSI/AAMI St:46.
