Cleaning
1. Remove all internals from the specimen chamber.
2. Make the Peltier-System inthe chamber accessible for cleaning
• Dismantle and remove the air baffle to the chamber interior rear wall and spray it with
disinfectant
• Loosen cable connector and fixing nut from the useable work space fan
• Remove useable work space fan and carefully wipe with disinfectant and lukewarm water
• Protect cable connector with insulatinf tape against moisture
3. remove condense water dish on the rear wall outside and gently clean with disinfectant and
lukewarm water
4. Attach cleaning hose to the condensate drain piping and lead the hose end in a bucket
5. Spray heat exchanger fins and cover plate of the Peltier system with disinfectant and wait about 3
minutes
6. Rinse heat exchanger fins and cover plate of the Peltier system with lukewarm water
7. Wipe off the specimen chamber surfaces, air baffle and the internals that have been removed from
the chamber using lukewarm water mixed with standard rinsing agents. Completely remove any
tenacious impurities using rinsing agent and warm water.
8. Re-rinse the cleansed surfaces 3 to 5 times with autoclaved water to completely remove any
cleaning agent residues.
9. After this, wipe the cleansed surfaces, air baffle and internals dry with a soft, sterile cloth.
Final Disinfection
1. Spray the specimen chamber surfaces and the internals removed from this chamber again with
disinfectant, or wipe them down.
2. Let the disinfectant work on the surfaces/internals as detailed in the manufacturer’s instructions.
3. Re-install the useable work space fan, the air baffle and all other internals in the specimen chamber.
4. Remove Pipe cleaning hose to the condensate drain piping and position drain pan back on the rear
panel accordingly.
Bio-hazard
Be sure to determine the current operating condition of the refrigerated
incubator before you open the door!
Cleaning must be performed immediately if any biohazardous material is
spilled in or on the refrigerated incubator.
