ANOMETER
The BACTRON manometer serves two functions. It acts as a dynamic pressure
valve to compensate for the displacement of atmosphere in the sealed and
pressurized workspace chamber. Displacement takes place primarily when a user
enters or withdraws their arms through the arm ports. The manometer also serves
as a visual gauge of atmospheric pressure in the chamber.
To fulfill both these functions, the manometer must be filled with water. To avoid
scaling (mineralization build up), use distilled water. Never use deionized water.
The manometer is located on the left wall of the workspace chamber.
1. Water may be poured in through port on the top of the manometer, or you may
unscrew the manometer bottle and remove it to fill.
a. Exercise caution when unscrewing and screwing back in. The bottle can
break.
2. Fill the manometer to the top reference ring when setting up the BACTRON.
3. Refill to the bottom ring whenever the chamber is operating and pressurized.

ISINFECTION
The workspace chamber was cleaned and disinfected at the factory. However, the BACTRON may have
been exposed to contaminants during shipping. Additionally, the factory procedure may not meet the
standards of your institutional protocols. Cleaning and disinfecting the workstation during installation
reduces the chance of microbiological contamination.
Please see the Cleaning and Disinfecting entry on page 66 in the User Maintenance section for
information on how to clean and disinfect without damaging the workstation and its components. Do not
used deionized water to clean or rinse the BACTRON! Remove all protective wrappings from
accessories and the workstation prior to cleaning and disinfecting.

Clean and disinfect the workspace chamber and incubator(s).

Clean, disinfect, and place the following items in the workspace chamber:
o
The arm port doors
o
The incubator bottom shelf spacers (BACTRON300 and BACTRON900)
o
Arm port door stands (BACTRON600 only)
o
The petri dish racks. These can be placed on the top shelf of the workspace
chamber incubator or the BACTRON600 workspace shelves during the setup.
o
A glass flask or beaker. When clean, place the container under the plastic
condensation tube on the left side of the chamber.
o
Any equipment and aerobic-tolerant items that you plan on introducing into the
workspace chamber. Doing so now saves time and AMG usage by eliminating
future pass box cycles.
Do not unwrap, clean, or place a catalyst cartridge in the unit at this time!
