STERYLIS ULTRA Operating Manual
The device is designed to sterilise rooms by generating ozone in a concentration that may pose a threat
to the health and life of humans and other living organisms. Despite the safety principles during the
operation of the product as described in the following chapters,
it is essential to read the information
below on possible effects of ozone and on first aid in case of exposure to a hazardous concentration of
the substance.
Ozone, due to its strong oxidizing effect, has an irritating effect on conjunctivitis and respiratory mucosa.
This may result in burning pains and redness of conjunctivitis, coughing, wheezing, difficulty in breathing,
increased frequency and severity of asthma attacks in people suffering from this disease, and increased
ailments in people with coexisting respiratory and cardiovascular diseases. In very high concentrations it is
dangerous to live.
The effect of ozone on living organisms depending on concentration is shown in the table below (based on
[6]):
Effect

che, shortness of breath
from 0,1 ppm
Respiratory disorders, reduced oxygen absorption, respiratory disorders,
general fatigue and chest pain, dry cough
