Can we re-use PlusPlates and RePads?

Answer : Singer PlusPlates and RePads are not recommended for re-use. We supply them in sterile packaging intended for one use only to reduce any possibilities of contamination.

Notes:

• Sterility is compromised by reuse.
• Autoclaving can cause these consumables to deform.
• Washing and bleaching is a method that can be used but this can affect sterility. If this is done repeatedly it is also likely that the accuracy of these consumables will be affected.
• If there are problems using the ROTOR(+) which could be related to these consumables being re-used these consumables should be disposed of and replaced with new ones.

If using PlusPlates and RePads on the ROTOR(+) there is the option to use the Economy Mode which allows you to use the same RePad for multiple pinning operations before dumping. Please see the article and video : ROTOR Software - Advanced which includes a demonstration of the Economy Mode.

Please Note: Any damage caused to the ROTOR through the use of re-used consumables may not be covered by any support contracts.
