1. Introduction / Signs and Symbols
1.1 Introduction
The SR Ivocap System is an
injection technique which
has been especially
eveloped to compensate
d
curing shrinkage. Heat/
pressure curing allows
shrinkage of the acrylate
during polymerization to be
compensated by inflowing
material.
The SR Ivocap injection
technique, therefore, permits
the fabrication of high
quality products with
excellent physical properties.
Indication
• Complete dentures
• Partial dentures
• Relines
• Orthodontic appliances
• Occlusal splints
Contraindication
Keep unpolymerized
material away from
intraoral areas. Do not use
the material if the patient is
known to be allergic to any
of the ingredients listed.
The SR Ivocap System
may only be
operated by trained
personnel.
1.2 Signs and symbols
The signs and symbols in
these Operating Instructions
facilitate the finding of
mportant points and have
i
the following meaning:

1.3 Notes regarding
the Operating
Instructions
These Operating
Instructions must
be read prior to
working with the
SR Ivocap System.

g
The Operating Instructions
facilitate the correct and
economic use of the
SR Ivocap System.
These Operating Instructions
are divided in several, clearly
structured chapters. They
should enable you to locate
specific topics quickly and
easily.
The SR Ivocap material is not
described in these instructions. Please refer to the
corresponding Instructions
for Use of the Ivocap
material.
The inform your about
risks/dangers, important
information, and contraindications, these Instructions
contain corresponding signs/
symbols (pictographs) to
mark important paragraphs.
We recommend keeping the
Instructions in a safe place
near the equipment to have
immediate access to the
information if necessary.
Should you lose the
Operating Instructions, extra
copies can be ordered at a
nominal fee from your local
Ivoclar Vivadent Service
Center.

2. Safety First
This chapter is especially important for
personnel who work with the
SR Ivocap System or who have to carry out
maintenance or repair work. This chapter
must be read and the corresponding
nstructions followed.
i
2.1 Indications
The SR Ivocap System must only be used for
injecting the SR Ivocap material and it should
be used for this purpose only. Other uses
han the ones stipulated, i.e. injecting other
t
materials, etc. are contraindicated. The
manufacturer does not assume any liability
for damage resulting from misuse. The user
is solely responsible for any risk resulting
from failure to observe these Instructions.
2.1.1
Risk of crushing
Further instructions to assure
proper use of the system:
– The instructions,
regulations, and notes in
these Operating
nstructions must be
I
observed.
– The system must be
operated under the
indicated environmental
and operating conditions
(Chapter 9).
– The SR Ivocap System
must be properly
maintained (Chapter 7).
Do not reach between
pressing plunger and safety
loop with your fingers. There
is a risk of crushing when air
is compressed.
2.1.2
Burn hazard
2.1.3
Burn hazard
2.1.4
Use protective thermo-gloves
to touch hot metal parts.
Do not use the water bath
without the plastic floaters.

hazard.
Wear protective clothing to
protect yourself from splash

polymerization bath
See also Chapter 2.
3.3 Functional description
The SR Ivocap System is an injection
technique which has been especially
developed to compensate curing
shrinkage. Controlled polymerization
allows shrinkage of the material during
polymerization to be compensated by
inflowing material. The SR Ivocap
injection technique, therefore, permits
the fabrication of high quality products
with outstanding physical properties.
Type of risk
There is a burn hazard if the equipment
is removed from the boiling water
without protective gloves.
There is a burn hazard if no protective
clothing and gloves are worn.
