You can use the following disinfectants:
Inner chamber Standard commercial surface disinfectants free from acid or halides.
Alcohol based solutions.
We recommend using the disinfectant spray Art. No. 1002-0022.
For chemical disinfection, we recommend using the disinfectant spray Art. No. 1002-0022.
Any corrosive damage that may arise following use of other disinfectants is excluded from
liability by BINDER GmbH.
With every decontamination method, always use adequate personal safety controls.
In case of contamination of the interior by biologically or chemically hazardous material, there are two
possible procedures depending on the type of contamination and charging material.
(1) Vacuum drying ovens VDL can be sterilized at 190 °C / 374 °F for at least 30 minutes. All inflamma-
ble goods must be removed from the interior before.
(2) Remove the vacuum expansion racks and removable rack holders and spray the inner chamber with
an appropriate disinfectant.
If desired you can sterilize the vacuum expansion racks and removable rack holders in a sterilizer or
autoclave. Before start-up, the unit must be absolutely dry and ventilated, as explosive gases may
form during the decontamination process.
In case of eye contact, the disinfectant spray may cause eye damage due to chemical
burns. Follow the operating instructions and safety hints labeled on the bottle of the disin-
fectant spray.
Recommended precautions: To protect the eyes use sealed protective goggles.
CAUTION
