UV-C illuminants contain mercury. Mercury is toxic and dangerous to the
environment.
• Avoid contact with skin and eyes. In case of contact, flush skin and eyes with
plenty of water. Take off contaminated clothing.
• Do not swallow. If swallowed, induce vomiting.
• Ensure good air exchange in the danger zone.
• Comply with the safety data sheet of the manufacturer.
CAUTION
Risk of serious injuries due to hazardous substances
There is a risk of poisoning if the carton is damaged or if the UV-C illuminants break.
• When handling broken UV-C illuminants, follow the safety instructions for
handling mercury.
• Avoid direct contact with eyes, skin, and clothing.
• Ensure excellent ventilation of the AHU and the rooms connected via the
ducts.
• Keep broken pieces of UV-C illuminants in airtight packaging and dispose of
properly.
TIP Removal of small amounts of mercury
UV-C illuminants contain small amounts of mercury. Removal of the small amount
leaked at breakage can be done with special sorbents for mercury.
