## PREDICATE DEVICE IDENTIFICATION

The Red2Green Reusable Sharps Container is substantially equivalent to the following predicates:

| 510(k) Number | Predicate Device Name / Manufacturer | Primary Predicate |
|---------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------|-------------------|
| K132007 | Stericycle Sharps Management Service Reusable Sharps Container / Stericycle, Inc. | ✓ |
| K950897 | Biobox TrapTop / Biosystems | |
| K950898 | Biobox with Funnel Top / Biosystems | |

## SUMMARY OF NON-CLINICAL TESTING

No FDA performance standards have been established for the Red2Green Reusable Sharps Container. The following tests were performed to demonstrate safety based on current industry standards and predetermined acceptance criteria.

Puncture resistance (per ASTM F2132): This test was performed by selecting sections from each area of the container or lid and subjecting them to a 21 gage needle advancing at a rate of 4″/min. Per the acceptance criteria, the average puncture force was no less than 3.4 lbf with no one value from any region being less than 2.8 lbf. All containers and lids were tested.

lmpact with Leak test (per ISO 23907): Containers were filled with representative sharps material and 1% volume of water. The lid was closed and the container was placed 1 m from the impact surface. The container was allowed to free fall and on its base, side wall, and adjacent side wall. Additionally, the 2 and 3 gallon containers were allowed to free fall and land on their lids as specified in the standard. Per the acceptance criteria, there was no loss of container integrity and no evidence of leakage. All containers and lids were tested in each possible configuration.

Stability test (per ISO 23907): One container was filled with representative sharps material and placed on a surface with a 15° incliner lid was left open and was tested in both orientations. Per the acceptance criteria, the device did not topple.

lmpact test (per 49 CFR 178.603): Five containers were filled with representative sharps material to a gross mass of 50 lbs and conditioned at 0° F for at least 24 hours. The container was allowed to free fall from a height of 1.2 m and land on its base, top, side wall, adjacent side wall, and bottom corner. Per the acceptance criteria, there was no damage to the outer packaging and no leakage of the filling substance.

The logo consists of a light green triangle on the left and the words "TRIUMVIRATE" and "ENVIRONMENTAL" in green on the right. The word "TRIUMVIRATE" is in a larger font than the word "ENVIRONMENTAL". The logo is simple and clean, and the colors are calming and professional.

Stacking test (per 49 CFR 178.606): Five containers were filled with representative sharps material to a gross mass of 50 lbs and then subjected to a static load of 250 lbs. Per the acceptance criteria, the load was sustained for 24 hours at a temperature of 23° C and 50% relative humidity. No damage, leakage or deterioration that could adversely affect transportation safety was observed.

Vibration test (per 49 CFR 178.608): Three containers were filled with representative sharps material to a gross mass of 50 lbs and then subjected to vibration at 278 cpm for 1 hour. Per the acceptance criteria, there was no damage to the outer packaging and no leakage of the filling substance.

Accessory strength test: The strength of Wall Enclosures and Metal Wall Bracket were tested by filling their associated sharps container with water. The filled container was placed into one of each of the respective wall mounted accessories. After 48 hours the containers were removed and the accessories were inspected for any loss of integrity. There was no evidence of sagging, breakage, liquid leakage, or changes in performance for the locking mechanisms.

Repeated opening test: To demonstrate that repeated opening and closing of the device does not negatively affect performance, three samples of the Horizontal Drop Lid were manually opened and closed for 1000 repetitions. The device was inspected for any damage or loss of functionality to the container or lid. For all three samples, the device remained undamaged and there were no signs of malfunction of the lid.

Life cycle test: Five representative sharps containers were filled with representative sharps material, tipped, dumped, disinfected, washed, dried and processed 400 times. There was no evidence of discoloration, cracks, breaks or other deficiencies (such as deterioration to the label) that would prevent the containers from operating normally. After 400 cycles, the devices were subjected to vibration simulation per ISTA Procedure 3E, one round of leak testing, impact testing per 49 CFR 178.603, and then a second round of leak testing. One sharps container was then subjected to puncture resistance testing per ASTM F2132. After reprocessing, the integrity of the device endured, and no changes to the performance or technical characteristics were visible.

#### EQUIVALENCE TO PREDICATE DEVICES

The subject device has a similar design and dimensions, and uses similar or identical materials as the devices cleared in K132007, K950897, and K950898. The colors and lid configurations are similar to those cleared in K132007. The subject device has the same intended use and similar technological characteristics (i.e. the lid closure) to the devices cleared in K132007, K950897, and K950898. The device has similar accessories to the devices cleared in K950897, and K950898.
