Cleaning and Disinfecting the Base Tray
27.05.2024
To clean the surfaces, use a soft cloth, ideally lint-free. This applies in
particular to the front window. Disinfect using commercially available
disinfectant if necessary.
When cleaning the base tray, only use a wet cloth, never pour water
into the tray. Make sure that no water splashes into the bearings. After
cleaning the device, especially the interior and the base tray, dry it
with a cloth.
Over time, dust and other contaminants can accumulate on the vents
and fans and other exposed areas. This may affect the operation of
the device, for example, if the air circulation for cooling the electronic
components is restricted. Dust and other impurities can be carefully
removed with a damp cloth or with a vacuum cleaner.
Only use quaternary ammonium compounds for wipe-down disinfec-
tion. As a tried as tested disinfectant, we recommend Fermacidal D2.
NOTICE
Heat (temperatures above 80 °C), aggressive disinfectants such as
chlorine bleach and UVC radiation can damage the device and signif-
icantly limit the function and service life of the device.
We recommend against using UV lamps for disinfection of the
device because the UV rays can massively damage the housing in
case of multiple applications.
If glass is broken or large amounts of liquid are spilled, liquid may
accumulate underneath the shaking table. To drain leaked liquids, the
device has a discharge outlet on the left side. In order to be able to
clean the base tray in case of glass breakage or other contamination
by culture liquids, the shaking table can also be detached from the
counterweight and folded upwards.
