According to the owner's manual, there are several methods for sterilizing the Grafco 3618A Funnel. The recommended methods are boiling and gas sterilization using ethylene oxide.
1. Boiling: The funnel can be sterilized by boiling it in water. The water temperature should be at 212°F (100°C), and the funnel should be boiled for a maximum of 15 minutes.
2. Gas Sterilization (Ethylene Oxide): Ethylene oxide gas can also be used for sterilization. The temperature range for gas sterilization is 86°F – 140°F (30°C – 60°C). It is important to note that there should be no distortion with ethylene oxide gas sterilization within this temperature range.
After sterilization, it is recommended to allow ample time for the funnels to dissipate the absorbed gas. This ensures that the funnel is safe to use and free from any residual sterilization agents.
Please note that the sterilization guidelines provided in the manual are from the raw material supplier, Dow Chemical Company. It is always advisable to follow these guidelines for proper sterilization and to ensure the longevity of the product.
For any further information or specific concerns regarding sterilization, it is recommended to refer to the most current and complete product information available on the GF Health Products, Inc. website or contact their customer support at +1 770.368.4700.
