tray only.
Use a suitable cleaning and disinfecting cycle for
mechanical cleaning.

Place storage tray GB 509 R in a suitable wire basket (e.g. JF 214 R).
Position the ACCULAN drill properly in storage tray GB 509 R im-
mediately after the operation.
To avoid abrupt changes in temperature, use a single-chamber
washer disinfector.
Select a cleaning and disinfecting cycle according to the following
criteria:
– Neutral cleaner
– Cleaning temperature ≤ 50 °C
– Final rinse with simultaneous thermal disinfection in deminera-
lized water.

Follow the instructions for use of the Aesculap ECCOS storage sy-
stem TA 009 721.
8.2.2 Sterilization
Sterilize the ACCULAN drill immediately after it has been cleaned
mechanically.
The drill can remain in the support during sterilization.
Sterilize with steam, taking note of the following:
Carry out steam sterilization via an approved steam sterilization
procedure (e.g. sterilizer in conformance with EN 285/ANSI/AAMI/
ISO 11134-1993, ANSI/AAMI ST46-1993 and validated in con-
formance with EN 554/ISO 13683). Carry out prevacuum steriliza-
tion for a minimum of 5 minutes at 134 °C and at 2 bar pressure.
CAUTION
Do not under any circumstances sterilize the rechargeable
batteries, since heating them to a temperature above 65 °C will
cause irreparable damage to them.
9. Maintenance
To ensure reliable operation, Aesculap recommends that maintenance
be performed after 300 reprocessing cycles, at least once per year.
For services to this end, please contact an Aesculap/B. Braun
representative in your country, see Technical Service.
Note
The battery compartment of the drill 16 is closed giving an air and wa-
ter tight compartment with the closure 23. The silicone seal in the clo-
sure 23 and the sealing surface on the drill handle should therefore be
checked regularly.
