Page 9: Performance Specifications
3 Performance specifications Intended use The MELAtherm 10 Evolution DTA/MELAtherm 10 Evolution DTB is intended for use in a medical context such as a clinic or medical and dental practices. EN ISO 15883- 1 and -2 defines it as a washer-disinfector intended for reprocessing medical instruments prior to their re-use or a further reprocessing step such as sterilization in a steam sterilizer. -
Page 10: Program Sequence
3 Performance specifications Metering monitoring The required amounts of cleaning agent and neutralizer are metered using a hose metering pump. A measuring turbine performs flow monitoring. The rinse aid is metered using a hose pump subject to moni- toring for rotation speed. Drawer for process agents The drawer for the process agents is located in the lower area of the device in which the cleaning agent, neutralizer and rinse aid containers are stored. -
Page 11: Process Agents
Use only suitable process agents. The use of unsuitable process agents can impair the reprocessing results and the damage materials (stain accretion). MELAG recommends using MEtherm process agents. The suitability of the MEtherm process agents for use in MELAtherm has been proven in comprehensive cleaning effectiveness and material- compatibility tests. -
