Miele G 7836 CD Operating Instructions Manual page 5

In the U.K., reference should be made
to your local infection control officer for
guidelines of disinfection temperatures
and holding times at temperature in
accordance with HTM 2030.
In Germany, the parameters for
disinfection of a temperature of 93 °C,
with a holding time of 10 minutes,
correspond to effective areas A and B.
These have been adopted into the
official list for disinfection of instruments
in washer-disinfectors and
decontamination units, according to
section 3.2 § 18 IfSG by the Robert
Koch Institute (RKI) in Berlin (Institute
for Infectious diseases and
non-communicable illnesses).
(Programme SPECIAL 93/10)
The effective areas are defined as
follows:
A = Suitable for the destruction of
vegetative bacteria, including
myco-bacteria, fungi and fungal
spores.
B = Suitable for inactivating viruses
(including HBV and HIV).
The cleaning programme must be
chosen according to the type of soiling
and product requiring processing in
order to ensure that disinfection is
carried out correctly, no residues are
left behind and that subsequent
sterilisation can take place. Medical
devices are best processed using the
DESIN vario TD programme, or the
OXIVARIO programme where
applicable.
Description of the machine

pure, demineralised water, aqua
purificata or distilled water where the
application requires this standard).
The water quality is of particular
importance for applications requiring
analytically clean laboratory glassware.
