Autoclave Cycle Text
20 cycles @ 121°C 15 psig for 15 min. with fast dry cycle, followed by test for:
| Property | Test Method | Typical Value |
|---|---|---|
| Volume Resistivity @ 500 volts | ASTM D 257 | No change from original |
| Dielectric Strength in air @ 500 kv/min rise | ASTM D 149 | No change from original |
| Dielectric Constant @ 1 MHz | ASTM D 150 | No change from original |
| Dissipation Factor @ 1 MHz | ASTM D 150 | No change from original |
Notice to User: It is imperative that manufacturers and end-users understand that the electro-surgical instruments should be placed separately, without overlay, on autoclave trays. Potential damage caused by overlay in the autoclave will significantly reduce this and any other dielectric insulator’s ability to pass the 20 cycles of autoclave required by the AAMI.
All statements and recommendations are based on technical data that INSULTAB believes to be true and reliable. It is the responsibility of the user to determine functionality and suitability. If you have any questions on the use or handling of this product, please contact us at 800-468-4822.
