Only use the approved ProXcide™ chemicals with the
ProXcide™.
Regularly check that the ProXcide™ (including its cables
and accessories) are free from damage. Do not use the
ProXcide™ if damaged, please contact Inivos for repair.
Do not attempt to open the ProXcide™. There are no user
serviceable parts inside. Opening the ProXcide™ could be
dangerous, and will invalidate the warranty.
Never tilt the ProXcide™ unit more than 30 degrees from
vertical, this can lead to chemical leakage.
Never enter a space where the ProXcide™ is operating
until the deactivation cycle has completed and the solid
green light is showing on the process monitor. A portable
gas sensor must also register a hydrogen peroxide level
below 2ppm for ≤ 15 mins re-entry/day, and 1ppm for longer
periods / reoccupation of the room.
ProXcide™ contains ≤ 7.5% hydrogen peroxide and can
cause serious skin and eye irritation. Therefore always wear
protective gloves and eye protection whilst inserting or
removing ProXcin™. refills from the ProXcide™ unit. Also read
the MSDS for ProXcin™.
It is recommended that the ProXcide™ be connected to the
mains through an 30mA RCD adaptor.
Never insert or remove a refill from the ProXcide™ unit
unless instructed to do so by the control panel. Failure to
observe this requirement may lead to chemical spillage.
Always carry out a site and location specific risk
assessment, taking into consideration the hazard analysis
and risks reduction identified. Implement suitable control
measures to avoid damage to property, or harm or injury to
any person.
Only trained operatives must use the ProXcide™. Use by
untrained personnel can lead to death or injury.
Section 1: Essential safety information
