GUS Disinfection Soak Station™ Principle of Operation The GUS Disinfection Soak Station provides for the safe soaking of heat sensitive instruments in high-level disinfectant solution. The system’s blower forces air through a carbon filter which removes toxic vapors from the high-level disinfectants. Do not use the system for any purpose other than its intended use.
GUS Disinfection Soak Station™ General Information The GUS Disinfection Soak Station eliminates vapors from high-level disinfectants and contains splashes and spills. Blowers pull fumes into a patented carbon filter, where they are adsorbed and eliminated. Clean air is returned to the room through the top louver panel.
Match all items in the package with those listed on your packing list. Inspect each item for damage. Fill tray(s) (if provided) with water and check for leakage. If any components are damaged or missing, or if you have any questions, call CIVCO Medical Solutions at 1-800-445-6741. Do not use the system.
GUS Disinfection Soak Station™ Filling the High-Level Disinfection Tray(s) CAUTION Make sure to turn the system ON before pouring high-level disinfectant into the soak tray(s). CAUTION Always leave the system running when high-level disinfectant is in the soak tray(s). CAUTION Keep the soak tray(s) covered as often as possible, to minimize evaporation of the disinfectant.
Disposal of Disinfectant In some states and municipalities, it is illegal to dispose of used disinfectants without first deactivating them. Deactivation also protects the user from exposure to splashes and spills. CIVCO Medical Solutions manufactures Glute Out ® , a glycine-based neutralizer (part# 610-1045).
If the filter becomes clogged, you will notice a decrease in water pressure. Replacement in-line filters can be purchased in packs of five from CIVCO Medical Solutions. Verify that the main power switch is ON before disposing of high-level disinfectant.
Filter Life GUS® has a patented filter that, in normal everyday use, will have a six-month life. Call CIVCO Medical Solutions at 1-800-445-6741 to purchase additional filters Filter Replacement CAUTION Turn the main power OFF and disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet.
GUS Disinfection Soak Station™ CAUTION The system’s carbon filter must be replaced every six (6) months. Prior to changing the filter, neutralize and dispose of any high-level disinfectant in the soaking tray(s), and remove all equipment from the system. Disconnect the system’s power supply before removing the filter. CAUTION An F321-A filter is required for use with hydrogen peroxide or peracetic acid based high level disinfectants.
If the system is not working correctly or is defective, contact CIVCO Medical Solutions, and we will repair or replace the unit at our option during the warranty period.
