Verification
An equipment drawing, showing all utility and space requirements, is
supplied when the
X10
™
Biodecontamination Unit is ordered. Any
clearance space specified on the equipment drawing is necessary for
proper operation, maintenance and repair of the system components.
Uncrating/Installation Instructions were furnished with the
X10
Biodecontamination Unit. If these documents are missing or misplaced,
contact STERIS Life Sciences, giving the serial, equipment and model
numbers of the unit. Replacement copies will be sent to you promptly.
NOTE: Do not use Unit in an area not compatible with oxidizers.
6.1.1 Installation
Checklist
After installing and connecting (refer to
) the
X10
Biodecontamination Unit on a hard level surface according to the
instructions provided, complete the following checklist to ensure the
installation is complete and correct. Contact STERIS Life Sciences to
schedule a demonstration of proper equipment operation.
❑
Unplug system before servicing.
❑
Electric service to the system components must be as specified
on the component data plates and equipment drawings.
❑
Electric service should be on a separate circuit, and not tied into
circuits containing large reactive loads (e.g., motors).
❑
Electric service must provide a protective earth ground as
specified by the local codes for an industrial circuit.
❑
Extension cord use is not recommended.
6.1.2 Pre-Operation
Checklist
Read all
Safety Precautions
,
before operating the equipment
. Then complete the following
checklist before operating the
X10
Biodecontamination Unit.
Check that:
❑
The hoses (with appropriate connectors) properly connect the
Biodecontamination Unit to the Enclosure (refer to
) or other system components as described
in
.
❑
A hydrogen peroxide detection monitor or vapor tubes must be
available to test for Enclosure (refer to
) leakage.
REMEMBER – POSSIBLE
TIME DELAY: Insufficient
clearance space will make
repairs more difficult and
time-consuming. Refer to the
equipment drawing for
minimum clearance for
service/maintenance access
requirements.
DANGER – CHEMICAL INJURY HAZARD: When handling hydrogen peroxide, wear appropriate PPE
(refer to Vaprox 59 Hydrogen Peroxide Sterilant SDS for PPE) and observe all Safety Precautions.
See Vaprox 59 Hydrogen Peroxide Sterilant SDS, product label and package insert for additional
handling information.
WARNING – PERSONAL INJURY AND/OR EQUIPMENT DAMAGE HAZARD:
• Lifting the Biodecontamination Unit requires more than one person. The unit weighs
approximately 65 lb (30 kg).
• Park Biodecontamination Unit only on flat surfaces. The caster brakes are not designed to
maintain the unit stationary on inclined surfaces. In addition, various internal components are
designed for operation when unit is parked on a level, flat surface
.
• Integrated (temperature and humidity) sensors are fragile. Do not bang, twist or crush.
Biodecontamination Unit does not operate properly with a damaged sensor.
