The STERLINK™ FPS-15s Plus Sterilizer with STERLOAD™ Cassette is a vaporized hydrogen peroxide sterilizer

intended for use in the terminal sterilization of cleaned, rinsed, and dried reusable metal and nonmetal medical devices

used in healthcare facilities. A pre-programmed sterilization lumen cycle operates at low pressure and low temperature

and is thus suitable for processing medical devices sensitive to heat and moisture.

The STERLINK™ FPS-15s Plus can sterilize*:

• Instruments with diffusion-restricted spaces such as the hinged portion of forceps and scissors

• Medical devices with a single stainless steel lumen with:

o An inside diameter of 2.4 mm or larger and a length of 280 mm or shorter

*The validation testing for all lumen sizes was conducted using a maximum of five (5) lumens per load. Hospital loads

should not exceed the maximum number of lumens validated by this testing. The validation studies were performed using

a validation load with a total weight of 3.97 lbs.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
