BD / ED / FD (E2) 11/2010 page 35/54
In case of impurity of the interior with biological or chemical hazardous material, there are three possible
procedures depending on the type of contamination and of the charging material.
1. The heating ovens ED and FD can be hot air sterilized at 190 °C / 374 °F for at least 30 minutes. All
inflammable goods must be removed from the interior before. With the incubators BD it is possible to
perform a hot-air disinfection at 100 °C / 212 °F.
2. Spray the inner chamber with an appropriate disinfectant.
Before start-up, the unit must be absolute dry and ventilated, because explosive gases may form
during the decontamination process.
3. If necessary, have strongly contaminated inner chamber parts removed by an engineer for cleaning, or
have them exchanged. Sterilize the inner chamber parts in a sterilizer or autoclave.
With every decontamination method, always use adequate personal safety controls.
CAUTION
Danger of corrosion.
Damage to the unit.
∅ Do NOT use acidic or chlorine cleaning detergents.
We recommend using the neutral cleaning agent Art. No. Art. Nr. 1002-0016 for a thorough
and mild cleaning.
Any corrosive damage that may arise following use of other cleaning agents is excluded from
liability by BINDER GmbH.
