E2.2 How to Initiate a Purge Cycle

NOTE: Once the purge cycle has started it may be paused but it cannot be cancelled. Do not switch
the trophon2 off during purging as this will restart the purge cycle. Do NOT attempt to open the chamber
or cartridge door during the purge cycle.
To initiate a purge cycle:
1. Wear gloves and ensure that the waste drawer is empty and fully inserted into the trophon2
(see Figure 3 for location).
2. Select: Menu
The purge cycle will typically take less than 30 minutes.
3. When purging is complete, put on gloves, empty the waste drawer and follow the onscreen
messages.
4. Add a new disinfectant cartridge (unless transporting), follow the on screen instructions and
refer to the disinfectant IFU.

SECTION E3: Regular Cleaning

1. Do NOT submerge the trophon2, or pour liquids over it.
2. Keep the trophon2 level and upright at all times.
3. Keep the power socket completely dry (see Figure 4).
4. For cleaning, when cool, wipe the chamber and the outside surfaces of the trophon2 with a cloth
or wipe moistened with a mild, soapy solution, until all surfaces are visibly clean.
5. For disinfecting, wipe all accessible surfaces of the trophon2 with an Isopropanol or Quaternary
Ammonium (Quat) Wipe.

SECTION E4: Transporting the trophon2

NOTE: The below is not necessary for transportation of the device using the trophon Cart.
To transport the trophon2:
• You must purge the disinfectant (do not insert a new disinfectant cartridge until trophon2 is
relocated), switch off the trophon2 power switch and unplug from the mains.
• Keep the trophon2 upright at ALL times.
• Pack using only Nanosonics approved packaging.

SECTION E5: Disposal of trophon2

Contact your Nanosonics representative to advise the appropriate collection point for the recycling of

SECTION F1: Incomplete or Failed Cycles

This section describes the most common causes for a cycle malfunction and the advised steps to action.

F1.1 Mains Power Failure

If the mains power supply to the trophon2 is lost whilst in operation, the current cycle will not complete.
• Once the power is restored, follow the on screen messages to remove the probe safely from the
trophon2.
• Discard the used Chemical Indicator and replace with a new one.
• Repeat the HLD cycle.
• If power cannot be restored and the probe is urgently required, follow Section F2.
