5.1 instrument reprocessing recommendations

The Hydrim L110w is designed to clean general dental and medical instruments.
SciCan recommends terminal sterilization after processing in the Hydrim L110w.
When used correctly, the Hydrim L110w is effective for the removal of debris on
instruments that may result in the insulation of microorganisms during terminal
sterilization. Prior to placing instruments in the Hydrim, consult the instrument
manufacturer's reprocessing instructions. All critical and semi-critical instruments can be
considered clean after processing in the Hydrim L110w. Non-critical instruments can be
terminally processed in the Hydrim L110w.
Examples of medical and dental instruments suitable for cleaning in the Hydrim L110w
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 L110w should
have the following properties:
• Heat resistance to a temperature of up to 70°C / 158°F
• Corrosion resistance in the presence of heat and alkalinity.
Burs, 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. However, some manufacturers' instruments may not be compatible.
All hinged instruments should be placed in open baskets in P3 Heavy-Duty cycle.
When processing small or light objects in the Hydrim use the basket with lid
(SciCan part number 01-109966S).
