9 CLEANING THE TABLETOP AUTOCLAVES WITH
CHAMBER BRITE™
CHAMBER BRITE is a cleaning and descaling agent designed specifically
for the cleaning and removal of water deposits, oxides and other sediments
that are found in steam sterilizers. The material is a combination of acidic salts
and additional cleaning materials.
Chamber Brite™ autoclave cleaner has been formulated specifically to be a
fast, powerful and easy to use cleaner for steam sterilizers.”
If the autoclave is not cleaned regularly, dirt and debris will build up and clog
the tubing and valves. This dirt can also be transmitted to the instruments
during sterilization. In addition, a layer of dirt on the stainless steel chamber
traps moisture against the metal and will lead to the chamber becoming porous
and failing.”
“It is recommended that your autoclave be cleaned with
CHAMBER BRITE™ once per week”
Caution!
NEVER use bleach, steel wool, a steel brush
or anything abrasive to scrub or clean the
chamber.
