manufacturer’s instructions). Due to the varying
conditions imposed on the materials during sterilization it
is not possible to determine the exact number of times the
sterilization processes can be carried out. Therefore,
Teledyne recommends that the operators carefully
examine the diverter and tee adapter after sterilization
and prior to use to verify that the item is fit for use. The
operator should verify that there are no cracks and tears
and the item does not show any indication of material
changes or physical damage that may compromise its
effective use. Both diverter and tee adapter should be free
of any chemical residue attributable to the sterilization
process.
Because of the variability of the cleaning, disinfecting and sterilizing
processes, Teledyne cannot provide specific sterilization instructions nor
can the sterility of the item be ensured. Therefore, we highly recommend
referring to the manufacturer’s instructions on the details of method.
