The summary describes a chemical sterilization system with a controlled process and water filtration steps. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or data analysis that would indicate the use of such technologies.
No
This device is a sterilizer for medical devices, not a device used to provide therapy to a patient.
No
The device is a sterilizing system for medical equipment, not a diagnostic tool that identifies or characterizes a medical condition.
No
The device description clearly outlines a physical system ("SYSTEM 1E Liquid Chemical Sterilant Processing System") that performs a physical process (liquid chemical sterilization) using physical components (processor, filters, UV irradiation chamber, membranes). This is not a software-only device.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for the liquid chemical sterilization of medical devices. This is a process performed on medical equipment, not on biological samples from a patient for diagnostic purposes.
- Mechanism: The system uses a chemical sterilant and treated water to sterilize devices. This is a physical/chemical process applied to objects, not a test performed on a biological specimen to gain information about a patient's health.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
- Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
- Detecting or measuring analytes (biomarkers, pathogens, etc.)
- Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or prognosis of a disease or condition.
Therefore, the SYSTEM 1E Liquid Chemical Sterilant Processing System is a medical device used for sterilization, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The SYSTEM 1E Liquid Chemical Sterilant Processing System is intended for liquid chemical sterilization of cleaned, immersible, and reusable critical and semi-critical heat-sensitive medical devices in healthcare facilities.
The SYSTEM 1E Processor dilutes the S40 Sterilant Concentrate to its use dilution (>1820 mg/L peracetic acid), liquid chemically sterilizes the load during a controlled 6-minute exposure at 46 to 55°C, and rinses the load with extensively treated* potable water. The processed load should be used immediately.
The SYSTEM 1E Processor uses only S40 Sterilant Concentrate to liquid chemically sterilize medical devices.
-
- The extensive treatment of EPA potable water consists of:
-
- Pre-filtration through two pre-filters:
- · Pre-filter 1 is a gross depth filter that removes approximately 5 micron or larger particles/contaminants.
- · Pre-filter 2 is a surface filter that removes particles/contaminants > 0.1 micron.
-
- The extensive treatment of EPA potable water consists of:
2. UV Irradiation:
- · During transit through the UV water treatment chamber, a UV dose sufficient to achieve a > 6-log reduction of MS2 virus is delivered to the water.
3. 0.1 micron filtration:
- · The water prepared by pre-filtration is filtered through redundant, 0.1-micron (absolute rated) membranes to remove bacteria, fungi and protozoa > 0.1 micron.

(a)
Identification. A liquid chemical sterilant/high level disinfectant is a germicide that is intended for use as the terminal step in processing critical and semicritical medical devices prior to patient use. Critical devices make contact with normally sterile tissue or body spaces during use. Semicritical devices make contact during use with mucous membranes or nonintact skin.(b)

Dear Tricia Cregger:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food. Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices. good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting (reporting of medical devicerelated adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
