Testing Tags
Accutech tags are powered by an internal
battery. Over the course of normal operation,
tags eventually lose battery power and the
whole tag will need to be replaced. The tag
battery is not replaceable.
For maximum protection of residents and/
or assets, Accutech recommends that tags be
tested on a weekly basis. There are many ways
to test tags:
• Enter a monitored zone.
• Use an IDTAD.
• Check tag's visual pulse LED, if present.
• Check the keypad’s auxiliary LED (Yellow),
which will light up when a tag is detected.
(Optional. Additional wire required)
Cleaning Tags
All tags are reusable but must be cleaned and
sanitized between applications.
Clorox Healthcare® Hydrogen Peroxide
Disinfectant Wipes, Sani-HyPerCide Germicida;l
Disposable Wipes, or a solution of 3% hydrogen
peroxide with water, are the recommended
cleaning solution for use when cleaning system
tags. Using any other cleaning solution
can and will potentially cause premature
failure of the tag enclosure and will void any
warranty.
Seek guidance from your Infection Control
representative for approved cleaners that can
be used on plastics.
In long-term applications, periodically clean
the tags and replace tag bands. To clean and
sanitize tags:
1) Put on latex, rubber, or nitrile gloves
before handling disinfectants.
2) Before using disinfectant wipes, remove
dirt and other debris from tag.
3) Wipe down entire tag surface with
disinfectant wipe. Dispose of disinfectant
wipe.
4) Wait 1 minute for full disinfection (or
for the recommended time based on the
disinfectant).
5) Rinse tag under running water or with a
water-dampened cloth. Towel dry.
• Do Not submerge tags in water or cleaning
solutions.
• Do Not use solvents or abrasive cleaners/
cloths.
• Do Not put tags in an AutoClave.
• Do Not put tags in a dishwasher.
• Do Not put tags in a washing machine or
dryer.
• Do Not steam clean tags.
