Instructions for use:
Open air vents system for sterilisation process.
When the sterilisation cycle is completed, close air vents system immediately when the drum is removed from the autoclave.
Do not stuff the drum full with compress or cotton, as the pressurised steam will not be able to penetrate into the centre and therefore not sterilise.
Safety process:
Check the drum (empty) before sterilisation process:
This item must be cleaned, and disinfected.
Make sure that the lid and air vents system close correctly.
Never use chlorinated products on stainless steel, as there is a risk of oxidation.
Check the drum (full) after sterilization cycle:
Make sure that the lid and air vents system have been closed correctly.
The date of the sterilisation must be written on the drum (use a sticker).
The material (sterile) can be kept in the drum for up to one month, provided the drum is kept closed and in a good condition of storage (i.e. protected from dust, humidity etc.).
It is recommended to stock sterile goods in a special room and / or cabinet and to have one person in charge.
