Safety Information . 11
High voltages exist inside the unit. Repair and maintenance should only be carried out
by individuals trained specifically to work on these instruments.
There are no bio-hazardous materials within the unit; however, this unit could
be used with bio-hazardous samples. Given the general-purpose nature of the
instruments it is not possible to define exact decontamination procedures for
the many types of samples being tested. These should be established by the
user, or their Health and Safety representative, before use of the instrument.
Guidance can be found in document
M29-A3 Protection of Laboratory Workers
from Occupationally Acquired Infections: Approved Guidelines
published by
the US Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute. The sample compartment
may be removed and cleaned by soaking in a disinfectant appropriate for the
bio-hazard for at least 30 minutes. The compartment should then be rinsed in
distilled water and allowed to dry. Similarly, the outer cover can be wiped over
with an appropriate disinfectant with a wipe or soft cloth. Any internal spills
should be wiped up using absorbent material through the sample compartment
aperture, and then similarly decontaminated using disinfectant soaked wipes.
Decontamination Certificates
If the instrument needs to be returned, a decontamination certificate is required.
Decontamination certificates can be found at the following web address or be provided by
Customer Care.

the manufacturer’s recommendations and local safety regulations.
