The V-PRO 60 Low Temperature Sterilization System, with VAPROX® HC Sterilant, is a vaporized hydrogen peroxide sterilizer intended for use in the terminal sterilization of cleaned, rinsed and dried reusable metal and nonmetal medical devices used in healthcare facilities. The pre-programmed sterilization cycles (Lumen Cycle, Non Lumen Cycle, and Flexible Cycle) operate at low pressure and low temperature and are thus suitable for processing medical devices sensitive to heat and moisture.
Device Story
V-PRO 60 is a vaporized hydrogen peroxide (VHP) sterilizer for heat/moisture-sensitive reusable medical devices. Uses VAPROX HC Sterilant (59% hydrogen peroxide). Operates via three pre-programmed cycles: Lumen, Non Lumen, and Flexible. Each cycle includes conditioning, sterilization, and aeration phases; no post-cycle cool-down required. Used in healthcare facilities by clinical staff. System controlled by microcomputer board with memory backup for cycle settings. Provides terminal sterilization, ensuring devices are ready for immediate reuse. Benefits include rapid processing of delicate surgical instruments and endoscopes without thermal damage.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Studies included AOAC sporicidal testing (720 carriers), D-value determination, 1/2 cycle modified total kill endpoint verification, and 1/2 cycle sterilization verification for all lumen/non-lumen/flexible configurations. Additional testing covered mated surfaces, simulated use, in-use testing with patient-soiled instruments, biocompatibility (23 materials), and material compatibility. All tests passed.
Technological Characteristics
Vaporized hydrogen peroxide sterilizer. Materials: 23 compatible types. Energy: Electrical. Connectivity: Standalone with microcomputer control board. Sterilization: VAPROX HC (59% H2O2). Standards: EN 61010-1 (Safety), EN 61326-1 (EMC).
Indications for Use
Indicated for terminal sterilization of cleaned, rinsed, and dried reusable metal and nonmetal medical devices in healthcare facilities. Suitable for heat- and moisture-sensitive devices, including rigid/semi-rigid endoscopes (single, dual, triple channeled) and flexible endoscopes/bronchoscopes. Specific lumen diameter and length constraints apply per cycle type.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An ethylene gas sterilizer is a nonportable device intended for use by a health care provider that uses ethylene oxide (ETO) to sterilize medical products.

The proposed device has an intended use similar to the predicate with the same technological characteristics. Although, the devices slightly differ, the provided descriptive characteristics and performance data demonstrate equivalence. Therefore, the proposed V-PRO 60 Low Temperature Sterilization System is substantially equivalent to the predicate device, the V-PRO maX Low Temperature Sterilization System.
#### 3. Description of Device
The V-PRO 60 Low Temperature Sterilization System is a new vaporized hydrogen peroxide sterilizer model to be added to the STERIS V-PRO family of sterilizers. The V-PRO product line currently consists of the Amsco V-PRO 1, Amsco V-PRO 1 Plus and Amsco V-PRO maX Sterilizers.
As with the predicate device (K102330), the V-PRO 60 Sterilizer has three preprogrammed cycles: the Lumen Cycle, the Non Lumen Cycle and the Flexible Cycle. The V-PRO 60 Low Temperature Sterilization System is intended for terminal sterilization of cleaned, rinsed, dried and packaged reusable surgical instruments used in healthcare facilities.
{5}------------------------------------------------
The V-PRO 60 Sterilizer uses VAPROX® HC Sterilant to sterilize the intended devices through exposure to vaporized hydrogen peroxide (VHP). Its three preprogrammed cycles all utilize a conditioning phase, a sterilize phase and an aeration phase. The packaged sterilized devices are ready for use at the completion of the cycle, no cool down or aeration period is required following completion of the cvcle.
