OPTIM OS1 Wipes Quick Reference Guide
Consult the product label before using this surface disinfectant.
OPTIM OS1 SOLUTION Liquid Spray
Spray Ready-to-Use OPTIM OS1 liquid onto a SciCan Dry Towelette. Do not directly spray onto the surface.
If surface is not heavily soiled, clean and disinfect surface with one wipe and allow surface to remain wet for the contact time indicated on the label.
If surface is visibly soiled, clean surface with one
towelette and discard. Use a second towelette to disinfect and allow surface to remain wet for the contact time indicated on the label.
OPTIM OS1 Ready-to-Use Wipes
Pull out OPTIM OS1 towelette at a 45 degree angle. Close lid.
If surface is not heavily soiled, clean and disinfect surface with one wipe and allow surface to remain wet for the contact time indicated on the label.
If surface is visibly soiled, clean surface with one towelette and discard. Use a second towelette to disinfect and allow surface to remain wet for the contact time indicated on the label.
IMPORTANT !
DO NOT allow OPTIM OS1 to pool on surfaces.
Use of gauze dipped in solutions for wiping may cause pooling and should be wiped dry.
FOR BEST RESULTS:
- Do not over apply OPTIM OS1
- Use of OPTIM OS1 on brass, copper, and clear acrylic could discolor or damage surfaces, if not used as directed and over applied.
- Dental Association guidelines recommend the use of utility gloves when cleaning and disinfecting surfaces.
PLEASE REFER TO THE ORIGINAL CONTAINER FOR COMPLETE DIRECTIONS AND ADDITIONAL INFORMATION.
Procedure for disinfecting PVS elastomeric impression materials with OPTIM OS1
- Once the impression is taken, rinse it well under running tap water to remove blood and saliva.
- After rinsing, gently shake the impression within the sink basin to remove any adherent water with minimal splatter.
- Spray the entire impression with OPTIM OS1. Use the contact times as stated on the label.
- Rinse the impression thoroughly with tap water to remove any excess disinfectant. After a thorough rinse, gently
shake the impression inside the sink basin to remove any adherent water with minimal splatter. - Once dry, place the disinfected impression in a sealed bag.
The impression is now safe and ready for further processing.
Switching to OPTIM OS1
- Give all surfaces a good cleaning with soap and water before switching to OPTIM OS1.
- After switching to OPTIM OS1, surfaces should to be periodically rinsed with water (recommended no less than once per week).
- Common practice for all chemical disinfectants is to periodically rinse and dry surfaces to maintain the surface integrity.
- Avoid mixing of chemistries.
Statim Water Pump Filters removed and inline filter added
Effective June 2007 SciCan removed the two filters located on each end of the water pump due to the implementation of the water reservoir filter in early 2006. In the past, when the water reservoir filter was not present, debris and dust that entered the reservoir had a chance of getting into the water pump. The two filters in the water pump fittings were required to catch this debris.
Since the water reservoir filter has been implemented in early 2006 (refer to 05-TSB-204), SciCan has decided to remove these unnecessary filters in the water pump and discontinue the replacement parts for these filters, 01-104501S (Filters Pump A/B/C/D), as they are no longer required once the water reservoir filter is installed.
Removal of these filters does not affect the operation of the Statim units in any way.
Water pump maintenance
1. Ensure a water reservoir filter is installed
a. New reservoir filter and reservoir cap (01-101783S)
b. Replacement reservoir filter (01-109300S)
2. Inspect and clean the water pump filters, if the machine is equipped with them
A replacement elbow fitting without an outlet filter is available as part # 01-111115S if the filtered fitting (shown above) becomes damaged beyond use.
Addition of In-line filter
In December 2007 an in-line filter was added between the water reservoir and the water pump inlet to address the issue of customers not using the reservoir filter. The purpose of this in-line filter is to stop debris from entering the Statim plumbing system when the reservoir filter is not used.
The in-line filter kit is available as part # 01-106637S and includes the filter and all necessary tubing. This filter should be replaced every 2000 cycles or every two years.
