Attention! Steps before and after using a BSC.
- Step 1: Fully close the front glass panel, turn on UV light for 30 minutes (you can use the timer setting). Users should leave the room during this disinfection period.
- Step 2: Raise the glass panel to recommended opening height, turn on air circulation for 10 minutes.
- After operation is done, fully close the glass panel and turn on UV light for another 30 minutes for decontamination.
IMPORTANT GUIDELINES USING A BSC
- No flammable and explosive substances (Building up of flammable material may cause an internal fire or explosion)
- No volatile chemicals (May cause damage to HEPA filters to the point where it allows particles to leak through)
- No toxic chemicals or materials (May reach room occupants)
- No open flame (Will disrupts air flow patterns)
- Minimal use (10mL or less) of decontaminant, such as 70% isopropyl or ethyl alcohol is allowed.
- We recommend using the following for disinfecting the surfaces of a BSC, depending on the agent to be controlled: Sodium hypochlorite (bleach), Ilodophors (Wescodyne), Phenolics (Hilphene, Vespene) and Quaternary ammonium compounds (Conflikt, EndbacII)
- If gaseous, vaporized or aerosolized chemicals must be generated in a BSC, you should assure yourself that the quantity being generated will NOT cause a flammable or toxic risk.
