9.9 Cleaning Table Top Autoclaves with Chamber Brite ™
CHAMBER BRITE ™ is a cleaning and descaling agent designed
specifically for the cleaning and removal of water deposits, oxides and
other sediments that are found in steam sterilizers. The material is a
combination of acidic salts and additional cleaning materials. Chamber
Brite ™ autoclave cleaner has been formulated specifically to be a fast,
powerful and easy to use cleaner for steam sterilizers.
If the autoclave is not cleaned regularly dirt and debris will build up
and clog the tubing and solenoid valves. This dirt can also be
transmitted to the instruments during sterilization. In addition a layer
of dirt on the stainless steel chamber traps moisture against the metal
and will lead to the chamber becoming porous and failing.
It is recommended that your autoclave be cleaned with
CHAMBER BRITE ™ once per week
Caution!

use bleach, steel wool, a steel brush or anything abrasive to
