The STERRAD® 100S Sterilizer is designed for sterilization of both metal and nonmetal medical devices at low temperatures. Because the cycle operates within a dry environment and at low temperatures, it is especially suitable for instruments sensitive to heat and moisture. (See list of recommended Materials in Section 3 of the Operator’s Manual.)

The STERRAD® 100S Sterilizer can sterilize instruments which have diffusion-restricted spaces, such as the hinged portion of forceps and scissors.

Metal and nonmetal lumened instruments with inside diameters of 6 mm or larger and lengths of 310 mm or shorter can be processed in the STERRAD® 100S Sterilizer. (See list of recommended Materials in Section 3 of the Operator’s Manual)

Medical devices with only a single stainless steel lumen which has an inside diameter equal to or greater than 3 mm and a length less than or equal to 400 mm can be processed in the STERRAD® 100S Sterilizer.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
