Tip #1 Maintenance; Micromotor Maintenance - Satelec Cocoon Bedienungsanleitung

Caution :
• Prior to sterilization, use compressed air to
remove any irrigation fluid left in the
Suprasson handpiece.
• Always sterilize the Suprasson handpiece
without the tip installed.
• Because of use and successive sterilization
procedures, check the Suprasson handpiece for
any sign of external damage before you use it.
• The handpiece has an irrigation circuit gasket
ring in its rear part (1.15 x1) accessible and
visible thanks to a groove in the rear casing.
As a result, the gasket ring can be easily
replaced if it is damaged or excessively worn.
Have it replaced or replace it yourself (Ref.:
F12304: 3 water circuit gasket rings; F00070:
ring fitting tool).

sterilisations, this gasket ring should be
lubricated with dental instrument grease in
order to prolong its efficiency and prevent
internal leaks.
2. 2 TIP #1 MAINTENANT
a) When is a scaling tip worn out ?
The shape and mass of the tip are determining
characteristics for achieving maximum ultrasonic
generator efficiency. Both characteristics should
be monitored in order to maintain the best
possible performance of the unit.
Therefore, it is strongly advised not to alter the
structure of a #1 tip by filing or bending.
Similarly, the ageing of tips simply due to normal
wear results in a change in their characteristics.
Tips damaged as a consequence of wear or
accidental impacts (fall, etc.) must be
systematically replaced.
b) Sterilization of #1 tip
All tips must be cleaned by using a cotton swab
soaked in alcohol or towelettes or by immersion
in an ultrasonic bath.
Tips can be sterilized by any conventional
thermal method.
Sterilization conditions and cycles according to
equipment :
Equipment: autoclave
Wet heat sterilization :
134°C under 2 bar (200 kPa) for 20 min.
With subsequent When sterilizing handpiece and #1 tip, avoid
and/or any contact between metallic parts of a
different nature as this would create
electrolytic couples liable to result in localized
deterioration. To avoid this phenomenon, wrap
the items in.
2. 3 MICRO-MOTOR MAINTENANCE
Cleaning and disinfecting
Caution : Do not disconnect the micro-motor
while the device is switched on and the control
pedal is engaged.
The micro-motor body must be cleaned and
disinfected (e.g. with alcohol: 96% V/V ethanol
and/or dental disinfecting towelettes) without
immersion.
The micro-motor and its connecting cable must
never be immersed in a solvent or in an ultrasonic
cleaning bath.
