| Dan,
one approach is to send the equipment you want sterilized to an outside company. EarLens Corp with good success, in that their transducers still work properly after sterilization. They typically charge several hundred bucks for a run.
Sending the equipment out to an outside firm puts the burden on them to do it properly.
Good luck.

Hi, I have an unusual question. In order to make some
acoustic measurements inside a ‘clean’ facility on my campus I will
need to have all of my equipment sterilized, including my B&K mics (1/4”
Type 4938). For sensitive equipment (such as a microphone) a dry application
of chlorine dioxide gas will be used for the sterilization. Does anybody have
any experience with this? And should I be concerned about my microphones? Thanks in advance!
