disinfectants. Rinse the item again under
warm running water for 30 seconds to remove
any residual soap and blot dry with a dry lint-
free towel.
• The Power Unit should be protected using prop-
erly-sized disposable plastic barrier sleeves.
• Since the Digitest 3 incorporates sophisticat-
ed electronic circuitry, it should not be direct-
ly sprayed with or soaked in disinfectant. The
device may be disinfected by wiping it with
a lint-free towel moistened with an EPA-ap-
proved disinfectant containing not more than
30% alcohol, alcohol-free surface disinfectant
wipes, or disinfecting wipes containing 3-5%
Hydrogen Peroxide. Any disinfectant used on
the lens and the housing should eventually
be wiped off as per the instructions given on
disinfectant labeling to remove chemical res-
idue. If the lens becomes hazy or scratched,

The tooth enamel of a patient is simulated using a 2 Megaohm resistive load. Using this load as a
reference, the absolute maximum voltage that can appear at the electrode is 500V at a maximum
output current of 250uA.
NOVUS No. 2- Fine Scratch Remover can be
used to remove the damage as per the manu-
facturer's instructions.
• Follow the surface disinfecting protocol spec-
ified by the disinfectant manufacturer.

• The Tooth Probes, Ground Clip and Lead Wire
may be sterilized in any conventional steam au-
toclave (130º-134º C for 15 min for Gravity Dis-
placement units, or 4 minutes for Pre-vacuum
Cycle units, followed by a 15-minute minimum
cool down interval). Comply with the autoclave
manufacturer's recommended procedure, if
different. These items can be autoclaved for
250 cycles before requiring replacement.

The voltage output at the electrode can be charac-
terized as discretely pulsed voltage packets that
gradually increase in amplitude as the display count
is incremented. The output voltage is purely AC and
contains no DC component. See "Electrical Specifi-
