STOP & READ BEFORE LOADING CHAMBER
AND INSERTING CARON H2O2 CANISTER
Caron Model 7800 Sterilization system uses Hydrogen Peroxide 35% concentration in
the sterilization process. Here are precautions for handling of the Caron H2O2 canister
sterilization containers.
Hydrogen Peroxide Precastions:
Hydrogen peroxide can pose serious health and safety hazards. Hydrogen peroxide is a
strong oxidizer (moderate oxidizer in lower concentrations), and can be corrosive to the
eyes, skin, and respiratory system. This chemical can cause burns to the skin and tissue
damage to the eyes.
Hydrogen Peroxide Safety, Handling & First Aid
When handling moderate-to-high concentrations of hydrogen peroxide in the workplace,
ensure eyewash stations and safety showers are accessible, and use splash goggles and
gloves.
In the event of exposure to hydrogen peroxide, seek medical attention and follow these
first aid guidelines:
Inhalation—Seek fresh air. If victim’s breathing is difficult,
administer oxygen. If breathing is absent, give artificial respiration and seek medical
attention immediately.
Eye Contact—Remove contact lenses if present. Immediately flush eyes with plenty
of water for at least 15 minutes, and seek medical attention.
Skin Contact—Flush skin with plenty of water and cover irritated skin with an
emollient. Remove contaminated clothing. In case of serious skin exposure, use
disinfectant soap and an anti-bacterial cream and seek medical attention.
Ingestion—Do NOT induce vomiting. Loosen tight clothing. Never give anything by
mouth to an unconscious person. Seek medical attention.
Storing & Disposing of H2O2 Hydrogen Peroxide
Keep H2O2 containers away from sources of ignition, heat, and moisture, storing in a
tightly closed container. Keep away from incompatible materials such as organic
materials, metals, acids, alkalis, combustible materials, and oxidizing agents. This
chemical must be disposed of in accordance with federal, state, and local environmental
control regulat
