5.2 CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE OF THE AGGREGATES EC-aggregates, (EC stands for EASY CLEAN) are easy to disassemble and clean. With some restrictions(*) they can be sterilised in an autoclave by several methods. In the following three chapters the de/assembling procedures will be described. (*) Depending on the frequency and the intensity of the sterilisation process, the life span of the bearings may be reduced due to loss of grease during evacuation in a autoclave.
