-
- Pre-filtration through two pre-filters:
- Pre-filter A is a gross depth filter that removes approximately 2.5 micron or larger particles/contaminants.
- · Pre-filter B is a surface filter that removes particles/contaminants > 0.1 micron.
-
- 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.
-
- 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.

Tables 1 and 2 compare the proposed and predicate devices.
The acceptance criteria and study results for the STERIS systems regarding modifications due to obsolescence of the glue for creating the upper lid seal are summarized below.
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
The documents describe three similar devices:
- SYSTEM 1E Liquid Chemical Sterilant Processing System
- SYSTEM 1 endo Liquid Chemical Sterilant Processing System, Model P6800
- SYSTEM 1 endo Liquid Chemical Sterilant Processing System, Model P6900
For all three models, the purpose of the submission is for modifications due to the obsolescence of the glue for creating the upper lid seal. The testing performed confirms the performance of the modified device remains equivalent to the predicate.
| Test | Purpose | Acceptance Criteria | Reported Device Performance (Result) |
|---|---|---|---|
| I. Biocompatibility | To ensure new upper lid glue does not cause a cytotoxic response. | The upper lid glue meets the acceptance criteria for cytotoxicity in ISO 10993-5:2009, Annex A Neutral Red Assay in accordance with methods disclosed in K090036. | PASS |
| II. Material Compatibility | To demonstrate that the new upper lid seal glue remains fully bonded after multiple Liquid Chemical Sterilization and Diagnostic Cycles. | The upper lid seal maintains integrity after multiple Liquid Chemical Sterilization and Diagnostic Cycles in accordance with methods disclosed in K131078. | PASS |
| III. Performance of Processor | To demonstrate that the upper lid seal with the new glue does not leak during Liquid Chemical Sterilization and Diagnostic Cycles. | Diagnostic Cycles in accordance with methods disclosed in K131078. (Note: The acceptance criteria here state "Diagnostic Cycles in accordance with methods disclosed in K131078" but the purpose clearly indicates testing during both LCS and Diagnostic cycles. The "PASS" result implies it was met for both as intended.) | PASS |
2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
The documents do not specify a numerical sample size (e.g., number of units, number of cycles) for the non-clinical testing performed. The description refers to "multiple Liquid Chemical Sterilization and Diagnostic Cycles" for material compatibility and performance testing.
The data provenance is from non-clinical bench testing conducted by the manufacturer, STERIS Corporation, based in Mentor, Ohio, USA. The studies are prospective in the sense that they were conducted specifically to evaluate the performance of the modified device.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts
This type of submission (510(k) for a modification of an existing device) and the nature of the tests (biocompatibility, material compatibility, processor performance related to a seal) do not involve human expert interpretation of data like medical imaging. Therefore, no experts in the sense of clinicians establishing ground truth from patient data were involved or reported for these specific non-clinical tests. The ground truth is based on predefined engineering and biological acceptance criteria derived from established standards (ISO 10993-5:2009) and previous FDA clearances (K090036, K131078).
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
Not applicable. The tests are objective and deterministic (pass/fail based on physical and biological measurements) rather than subjective clinical assessments requiring adjudication.
5. If a Multi Reader Multi Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was done
No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. This type of study is relevant for diagnostic devices where human reader performance with and without AI assistance is being evaluated, which is not the case for a chemical sterilant processing system.
6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
Not applicable. This is a physical chemical sterilization system, not a software algorithm that performs diagnostic or analytical functions. The "performance of processor" test demonstrates the functionality of the device itself (including its automated processes), which could be considered a form of standalone performance evaluation for its intended physical function.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used
The ground truth for these tests is based on:
- Standardized biological safety criteria: ISO 10993-5:2009 for cytotoxicity.
- Engineering specifications and integrity: Maintaining physical integrity of the seal and preventing leaks during operation, as defined by the device's design and referenced historical predicate device data (K131078).
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
Not applicable. This submission is for a physical medical device (a sterilant processing system) and its component modification, not an AI/ML algorithm that requires training data sets.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established
Not applicable, as no training set for an AI/ML algorithm was used.

SYSTEM 1endo Liquid Chemical Sterilant Processing System: K173256
3. Description of Device
The SYSTEM 1 endo Liquid Chemical Sterilant Processing System is a liquid chemical sterilization system, utilizing peracetic acid to process totally immersible semi-critical medical devices and their accessories. The system consists of the SYSTEM 1 endo Processor and S40 Sterilant Concentrate, interchangeable Processing Trays/Containers, and Quick Connects. The current submission is provided to describe modifications due to obsolescence of the glue for creating the upper lid seal.
The SYSTEM 1 endo Processor is an automated, self-contained device that uses S40 Sterilant Concentrate to create and maintain the conditions necessary for liquid chemical sterilization in 6 minutes. Following processing, the liquid chemically sterilized articles are rinsed with 0.2 micron filtered potable water and are ready for use or may be prepared for storage. The processor, which is computer controlled and continually monitored, provides printed documentation of each cycle.
The SYSTEM 1 endo Processor uses only S40 Sterilant Concentrate. Upon loading the single-use cup, the active ingredient in S40 - peracetic acid - is combined with inert ingredients (builders) to form a use dilution which inhibits corrosion of metals, polymers and other materials.
The interchangeable processing trays/containers are made to accommodate a variety of semi-critical instrument types and models. Each container is designed to maintain instruments in position while specific SYSTEM 1 endo Quick Connects, if required. facilitate delivery of the sterilant use-solution and rinse water to internal channels. Table 1 compares the proposed and predicate devices.
{18}------------------------------------------------
4. Intended Use
The SYSTEM 1 endo Liquid Chemical Sterilant Processing System is intended for liquid chemical sterilization of cleaned, immersible, and reusable semi-critical medical devices and their accessories in healthcare facilities.
The SYSTEM 1 endo 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 0.2 micron filtered potable water.
The SYSTEM 1 endo Processor uses only S40 Sterilant Concentrate to liquid chemically sterilize medical devices.

2. Predicate Device
SYSTEM 1 endo Liquid Chemical Sterilant Processing System, Model P6900. K191343.
3. Description of Device
The SYSTEM 1 endo Liquid Chemical Sterilant Processing System, Model P6900 is a liquid chemical sterilization system, utilizing peracetic acid to process totally immersible semi-critical heat-sensitive medical devices and their accessories. The system consists of the SYSTEM 1 endo Processor and S40 Sterilant Concentrate, interchangeable Processing Trays/Containers, and Quick Connects. The current submission is provided to describe modifications due to obsolescence of the glue for creating the upper lid seal.
The SYSTEM 1 endo Processor is an automated, self-contained device that uses S40 Sterilant Concentrate to create and maintain the conditions necessary for liquid chemical sterilization in 6 minutes. After LCS processing, the liquid chemically sterilized articles are rinsed with 0.2 micron filtered potable water and are ready for use or may be prepared for storage.
The SYSTEM 1 endo Processor uses only S40 Sterilant Concentrate. Upon loading the single-use cup, the active ingredient in S40 - peracetic acid - is combined with inert ingredients (builders) to form a use dilution which inhibits corrosion of metals, polymers and other materials.
The interchangeable processing trays/containers are made to accommodate a variety of semi-critical instrument types and models. Each container is designed to maintain instruments in position while specific SYSTEM 1 endo Ouick Connects, if required, facilitate delivery of the sterilant use-solution and rinse water to internal channels. Tables 1 and 2 compare the proposed and predicate devices.
{28}------------------------------------------------
Indications for Use 4.
The SYSTEM 1 endo Liquid Chemical Sterilant Processing System is intended for liquid chemical sterilization of cleaned, immersible, and reusable semi-critical heatsensitive medical devices and their accessories in healthcare facilities.
