These products are approved only at their Ready-To-Use (RTU) concentrations. We recommend purchasing them in RTU form. If they are purchased in a concentrated form, all dilution must be performed outside of the treatment room to minimize the possibility of vapors condensing onto acrylic surfaces and causing crazing.
ALWAYS USE THE CORRECT DILUTION & FOLLOW THE MANUFACTURERS’ AND FACILITY’S PROCEDURES
IF IN DOUBT PLEASE CONTACT YOUR CHAMBER SUPPLIER FOR ADVICE.
Do not use any cleaners or disinfectants containing high concentrations of alcohol. They are known to initiate crazing of the acrylic cylinder.
Please note that many other formulated hospital cleaners such as Oxivir TB contain very high concentrations of Ethanol, Isopropanol or Benzyl Alcohols which cause serious damage to the acrylic window and MUST NOT be used.
Caution must be exercised when using cleaners containing strong perfumes – some of which are known to damage acrylic.
Correctly diluted cleaners may be used at up to 100°F (38°C) MAXIMUM
Soft lint-free cloths must be used to prevent scratching the acrylic window.
Do not use cleaners when the chamber is pressurized.
See ASME PVHO-2-2019 Mandatory Appendix V for further guidance.
