SciCan recommends terminal sterilisation after processing in the Hydrim C51wd.
When used correctly, the Hydrim C51wd is effective for the removal of debris on
instruments that may result in the insulation of microorganisms during terminal sterilisation.
Prior to placing instruments in the Hydrim, consult the instrument manufacturer's
reprocessing instructions.

Hydrim C51wd include:
• Stainless steel scalers, spatulas and hemostats.
• Stainless steel retractors, needle holders, skin hooks, tissue forceps, scissors,
curettes, and other stainless steel instruments free of deep cavities.
For best results, instruments processed in the Hydrim C51wd should have the following
properties:
• Heat resistance to a temperature of up to 84°C
• Corrosion resistance in the presence of heat and alkalinity.
Dental handpieces, microkeratomes, phaco tubing, fiberoptics and electrical equipment
should not be processed in the Hydrim.
HIP TM (Hydrim Cleaning Solution with Instrument Protection) has been carefully formulated
to provide outstanding material compatibility with a wide range of metals and coatings.
