Sterilization at 134°C for a maximum of 20 minutes is permissible.
The hot-air sterilization and radio-sterilization procedure may not be used (as it causes the destruction of products).
The manufacturer assumes no responsibility for the use of other sterilization procedures (E.g. ethylene oxide, formaldehyde and low temperature plasma sterilization). In such cases, please observe the respective valid standards (EN IS0 14937/ANSI AAMl IS0 14937 or the procedure-specific standard) and verify the suitability and effectiveness in principle of the procedure (if necessary, including investigations on sterilizing agent residue), taking into account the specific product geometry as part of the validation.

SERVICE LIFE
The products have been designed for a large number of sterilization cycles. The materials used in their manufacture were selected accordingly. However with every renewed preparation for use, thermal and chemical stresses will result in aging of the products.
If the number of permissible re-sterilization cycles is restricted, this will be pointed out in the product specific instructions.
The use of ultrasound baths and strong cleaning and disinfection fluids (alkaling pH>9 or acid pH<5) can reduce the life span of products. The manufacturer accepts no liability in such cases.
The products may not be exposed to temperatures above 138°C.
