METHOD FOR CLEANING A MEMBRANE OF A MEMBRANE AEROSOL GENERATOR, WHICH MEMBRANE CAN VIBRATE, AND COMBINATION OF A CLEANING DEVICE AND A CLEANING LIQUID FOR SUCH CLEANING
The invention relates to a method for cleaning a membrane (3) of a membrane aerosol generator (4) of an inhalation therapy device (100), which membrane can vibrate, wherein a cleaning liquid is fed to the membrane (3) and the membrane (3) is caused to vibrate in such a way that the cleaning liquid is conveyed through the openings of the membrane (3), wherein the cleaning liquid contains at least one surfactant. The invention further relates to a combination of a cleaning device (1) and of a cleaning liquid, wherein the cleaning device (1) is designed for cleaning a membrane (3) of a membrane aerosol generator (4) of an inhalation therapy device (100), which membrane can vibrate. The cleaning device (1) comprises a liquid-feeding apparatus (2), which is designed to feed the cleaning liquid to the membrane (3), and a vibration activation apparatus (9), which is designed to activate membrane vibrations such that the cleaning liquid is conveyed through the openings of the membrane (3). The cleaning liquid contains at least one surfactant.
