Approved Cleaning and Disinfectant Agents

Approved Cleaning and Disinfectant Agents

Use pre-moistened wipes, and do not allow liquid cleaner to pool.
not use quaternary ammonia wipes.
100% of the active ingredients in any cleaner must consist of one or some combination of the following:
  • isopropyl alcohol
  • Denatured Alcohol
  • 50/50 mixture of water and bleach (see important note below)
  • 50/50 mixture of water and hydrogen peroxide
  • Lysol disinfectant spray
  • Disinfecting wipe with Alkyl C12-C18
When using sodium hypochlorite (bleach) based products always follow the manufacturer’s recommended instructions: use gloves during application and remove the residue afterward with a damp alcohol cloth or a cotton swab to avoid prolonged skin contact while handling the device. Due to the powerful oxidizing nature of sodium hypochlorite, the metal surfaces on the device are prone to oxidation (corrosion) when exposed to this chemical in liquid form (including wipes).
In the event that these types of disinfectants come in contact with metal on the device, prompt removal with an alcohol-dampened cloth or cotton swab after the cleaning step is critical.
