  • 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.  IF IN DOUBT PLEASE CONTACT YOUR CHAMBER SUPPLIER FOR ADVICE.
  • Correctly diluted cleaners may be used at up to 100°F (38°C) MAXIMUM
  • ALWAYS USE THE CORRECT DILUTION & FOLLOW THE MANUFACTURERS’ AND FACILITY’S PROCEDURES
  • Soft lint-free cloths must be used to prevent scratching the acrylic window.
  • Do not use cleaners when the chamber is pressurized.
  • Caution must be exercised when using cleaners containing strong perfumes – some of which are known to damage acrylic.
  • See ASME PVHO-2-2019 Mandatory Appendix V for further guidance.
