INION THERMO WATER BATH
INION THERMO+ WATER BATH
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
ACC-9804 INION THERMO (water bath 110 V)
ACC-9840 INION THERMO+ (water bath 110 V)
1. Description
The INION THERMO and INION THERMO+ water baths are medical electrical devices intended for continuous operation. The
intended purpose of the devices is to provide a safe, simple and effective method of preparing heated water for use with INION
2. Indications for use
The INION THERMO and INION THERMO+ water baths, in conjunction with the INION THERMO Drape (ACC-9802), are intended
to heat sterile liquid to approximately 55°C ±5°C / 131°F ±9°F (INION THERMO) or 70°C ±5°C / 158°F ±9°F (INION THERMO+) and
maintain a relative temperature for the thermo forming of appropriate INION
3. Instructions for use
•
Operation of the INION THERMO and INION THERMO+ water baths require connection 110 VAC 50/60 Hz, minimum 2 A
outlet.
•
The INION THERMO Drape (ACC-9802) must be placed over the unit before adding liquid in the tank. For more detailed
information on placing the INION THERMO Drape, see the instructions for use of the INION THERMO Drape.
•
Fill the tank by adding sterile water or saline solution. The full capacity of the tank is approximately 0.7 litres / 0.2 gal. INION
recommends that a minimum of 0.4 litres / 0.1 gal is to be maintained in the tank.
•
After connection to the outlet, the green power switch must be in "ON" position. The signal lamp and "ON/OFF" marking adjacent to
the switch will indicate whether the power is on or off. When operating the switch, support the device from the backside.
•
The liquid in the tank will attain the preferred temperature of approximately:
•
55°C (± 5°C) / 131°F (± 9°F) (INION THERMO
•
70°C (± 5°C) / 158°F (± 9°F) (INION THERMO+
after the power is switched on. The use of warm sterilised fluid will shorten the heating time.
•
After use, return the green power indicator switch to "OFF" position and disconnect the device from the electrical outlet. It is
recommended that the unit is allowed to cool to room temperature before returning it to a safe storage area. Dispose of fluid
according to safe operating room procedures.

•
Do not use with sharp or pointed instruments.
•
Do not use on or near the patient.
•
Do not use on unstable stands or carts.
5. Cleaning and sterilisation
•
The INION THERMO and INION THERMO+ water baths are provided non-sterile. The INION THERMO Drape (ACC-9802)

diluted cleaning solution.
•
The INION THERMO and INION THERMO+ water baths cannot be sterilised.
6. Storage and handling
•
Transportation and storage at controlled conditions, temperature 15-30˚C / 59-86˚F, relative humidity below 60%.
•
The device must be properly cleaned immediately following the procedure.
•
It is recommended that the original packaging for the INION THERMO and INION THERMO+ water baths will be used when
transporting the device.
7. Service and maintenance
•
There are no serviceable parts in the INION THERMO and INION THERMO+ water baths.
•
No maintenance is necessary. However, in case of malfunctions, please return the INION THERMO or INION THERMO+ water
bath to INION Oy, Lääkärinkatu 2, 33520 Tampere, Finland. Do not attempt to service.
