10 -2 Cleaning
Before cleaning the electrocardiograph or the patient cable, make
sure that the equipment is switched off and disconnected from the power
line.
The electrocardiograph system must be kept dust-free.
Regular cleaning of the device and the LCD screen is strongly recommended.
Please pay special attention to the following items:
1- Don't use strong solvents such as acetone or ammonia.
2- Most cleaning agents must be diluted before use.
3- Don't use rough material, such as steel wool, etc.
4- Don't let the cleaning agent enters into the chassis of the system.
5- Don't leave the cleaning agents on any part of the equipment.
The electrocardiograph and sensor surface can be cleaned with
hospital-grade ethanol and dried with a clean cloth.
Please pay attention to the following guidelines for cleaning the accessories:
ECG Cable:
Use soft cloth moistened with mild soap liquid or cleaning agent containing 70% ethanol to clean the
ECG cable.
Recorder:
Accumulation of paper powder or foreign matter on the thermal head and platen roller deteriorates the
print quality. Clean the head elements and platen roller surface using a cloth moistened with alcohol.
Wait until the alcohol dries then close the recorder door.
Do not clean the recorder immediately after recording because
thermal head and its surrounding area are hot during and after
recording.
