21.2 Decontamination / chemical disinfection of the chamber
The operator must ensure that proper decontamination is performed in case a contamination of the
chamber by hazardous substances has occurred.
Disconnect the chamber from the power supply prior to chemical decontamination. Disconnect the power
plug.
Do not use decontamination agents that may cause a hazard due to reaction with components of the
device or the charging material. If there is doubt regarding the suitability of cleaning products, please
contact BINDER service.
You can use the following disinfectants:
Inner chamber
Standard commercial surface disinfectants free from acid or halides.
Alcohol based solutions.
We recommend using the disinfectant spray Art. No. 1002-0022.
For chemical disinfection, we recommend using the disinfectant spray Art. No. 1002-0022.
Any corrosive damage that may arise following use of other disinfectants is excluded from
liability by BINDER GmbH.
Important: To maintain the proper function of the CO
2
sensor, never spray the sensor with any cleaning
detergents or disinfectants. Generally perform any disinfection only when the chamber is turned off. The
sensor may be only superficially disinfected with a damp cloth. The hot air sterilization routine is intended
for a thorough sterilization of the entire chamber.
CAUTION
Damage to the CO
2
sensor.
∅ Do NOT spray the disinfectant directly on the CO
2
sensor.
Wipe the sensor with a lint-free cloth soaked with the disinfectant.
Use only the detergents or disinfectants recommended by BINDER. Other products are not approved,
since they could in particular damage the CO
2
sensor.
With every decontamination method, always use adequate personal safety controls.
In case of contamination of the interior by biologically or chemically hazardous material, there are two
possible procedures depending on the type of contamination and charging material.
(1) Spray the inner chamber with an appropriate disinfectant.
Before start-up, the chamber must be absolutely dry and ventilated, as explosive gases may form
during the decontamination process.
(2) 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.
In case of eye contact, the disinfectant spray may cause eye damage due to chemical
burns. Follow the operating instructions and safety hints labeled on the bottle of the
disinfectant spray.
