7. SANITISATION
7.1 Sanitising products
ATTENTION! Sanitising agents are corrosive.
The best sanitizing and disinfecting agents are those most commonly used in the industrial
field. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for the specific application during use. If possible,
ask the manufacturer for guarantees on the degree of corrosivity of the solutions used.
Any changes to these characteristics may damage the item.
IT IS very important to follow the specifications regarding concentration, temperature and
reaction times. Any change to these characteristics may damage the device.
During the sanitisation phases, only use:
▪ cold water;
▪ hot water max. 95°C;
▪ alkaline solutions max. 80°C;
▪ disinfectant solutions.
Do not use sulphuric acids or mineral acids such as HCl, H
7.2 Sanitisation with halogen-containing products
ATTENTION! Do not use products containing halogens during closed-loop
sterilisation as they could damage the stretcher.
If used incorrectly these products can corrode steel especially if the pH is low. Perform thorough
checks before using these solutions.
If the device is to be sanitised using halogen containing sanitising products (e.g. chlorine), the
following requirements must be followed:
▪ the pH must be greater than 10;
▪ the temperature must not exceed 40°C;
▪ the solution must not remain in contact with the stretcher for more than 20 min.;
▪ use a concentration of max. 50 ppm of active chlorine;
▪ after sanitising, rinse thoroughly with water.
7.3 Sanitisation intervals
The sanitisation intervals are defined by the user, according to requirements, taking into account
the indications reported in this manual and those stated on the sanitising products being used.
7.4 Automatic sanitisation
The automatic sanitisation (autoclave) is defined by the customer, according to requirements,
taking into account the indications reported in this manual and those reported by the sanitising
products being used.
7.5 Manual sanitisation
Manual sanitisation will be defined by the customer, based on requirements, taking into account
the indications given in this manual, and those reported by the sanitising products being used.
ATTENTION! Always check the safety data sheets of the materials being used for
sanitisation. In case of contact/inhalation and/or ingestion, follow the instructions
provided in the prescribed sheets.
