2.5 Instructions for Operation

2.5.1 Normal Operation Notice
(1) Make sure input voltage is correct and stable. The rated load of main power socket should be higher than cabinet consumption. Plug must be well grounded.
(2) In order to avoid air turbulence, the operator should slightly move his arms during experiment. Hands should stay inside the working area at least 1 minute before operating. In order to decrease the times of arms moving into and out of the working area, prepare all the necessary items inside the cabinet before starting experiment;
(3) Moving principles of different samples inside cabinet: When two or more samples need to be moved, be sure that low-polluting samples move to high-polluting samples. Movement of items should also follow the principles of slow-moving.
(4) Samples placed in parallel: Samples should be placed in the cabinet parallel to avoid cross-contamination between samples and blocking back air grille.
(5) In order to avoid samples being sucked into the negative passage or the blower, do not place soft and slight samples (for example: soft tissue) on the surface during experiment;
(6) The weight of items placed in the cabinet should be no more than 23Kg/25×25cm2;
(7) Avoid vibration: avoid using vibration equipment (eg centrifuges, vortex oscillator, etc.) inside the cabinet. Vibration would cause lower cleanliness of operating area and affect operator protection.
(8) No flame: No flame is allowed inside the cabinet. Using of fire will lead to airflow disorder, and filter damage. If sterilization is required during the experiment, infrared sterilizer is highly recommended.
(9) ULPA filter life: With the usage time increasing, dust and bacteria accumulate inside ULPA filter. Filter Resistance is getting bigger, when it reaches the maximum point, there will be audible and visual alarm. Please replace new ULPA filter, otherwise it will affect the safety performance of the equipment. The used filter should be processed as medical waste.
(10) There is a negative passage surrounding the work area, which is sealed strictly in the factory. The operator is not allowed to remove or loose screws of those parts. If necessary, please contact service personal.
(11) Front Grille is used for air intake and drain. Do not block it, otherwise it will affect airflow. Armrest is recommended to solve this problem and reducing the operator's wrist fatigue.
(12) Long-term use of biological safety cabinets will inevitably cause pollution (e.g. ULPA filters, corner cabinets, etc.). In order to sterilize thoroughly every 500 hours, formalin (formaldehyde) fumigation sterilizer is recommended. After sterilization, neutralize formaldehyde gas with ammonium hydrogen carbonate. Make sure no sterilization gas escapes during the whole process.
(13) The maximum storage period is one year. If the period is more than one year, performance test should be done .

2.7 Methods and procedures for disinfection
Details in the After-sale service manual
Disinfection is necessary when any contaminated part of the biological safety cabinet needed for routine maintenance, replacement filters, and performance testing, etc. Before doing certification test and gas sterilization, all internal working surface and the exposed outer surface should be disinfected with a suitable disinfectant. what is more, using Class II biosafety level designated medicament to sterilize the cabinet by gases is required. Class III biosafety level designated medicament is recommended after the use of the cabinet. The cabinet, under the risk of being polluted by the biological factor, should be sterilized before sliding position.
The polluted working surface caused by overflowed and spilled reagents also should be sterilized. Most of the cases that need gas sterilization use depolymerized triformol as the disinfector as noted below, the period parameters and its validity of each model and size of the cabinet are required to be listed before change sterilization method. The relevance of the material has connections with the absorption and degeneration of spare decontaminant, which is the key factor of keeping the cabinet integrated and the sterilization time. There need those alternative sterilization way in some case, such as: slow disease virus. The sterilization method is used against the consult between the end user and certification authority. Pointing out the given area, gas mask, safeguard procedures, corresponding test, medical monitoring, conveying danger and training, record and reserve etc... and follow these steps.

Before sterilization, all the hydrogen chloride should be moved away from the cabinet. There will result in carcinogenic substance-BCME when it meet with formaldehyde under the ambient air.
a. Figure out the total volume by multiplying the height, width and depth.

b. The required weight of the triformol will be worked out through the total volume multiply 11g/m³, figuring out the weight of ammonium bicarbonate or its alternative by chemometry.

c. It must be bubble-tight if there are exhaust pipe with the biological safety cabinet, which can be realized at the end of the pipe or sealing at the control valve if there is valve nearby the cabinet, it need more triformol to compensate the added volume if the length of exhaust pipe is more than 3 meters. If the exhaust recirculation of the cabinet connect with the exhaust system of the construction, interrupting the connection system of the biological safety cabinet with construction and sealing (by using plastic film and plastic strips)

d. Sealing by plastic film as the waste gas is exhausted into the room from biological safety cabinet.

e. In order to urgently eliminate formaldehyde, sterilize and eliminate formaldehyde after neutralizing, putting a tube nearby the biological safety cabinet in advance which is required to connect with chemical smoke hood or other exhaust devices that is suitable for releasing the harmful gas.

f. Put the heater, such as electric-heating frying pan which can be bought from market, formaldehyde generator or neutralizer on the working table. Set up the temperature at 232℃~246℃, the triformol is spraying over the surface of the heater devices equably.

g. The autoignition temperature is paraformaldehyde at 300℃.

h. The neutralizer with the heating device is placed on the workbench. Neutralizers (Ammonium bicarbonate or equivalent) should be isolated from the air in the cabinet before use. The following two examples illustrate how to achieve air separation.

i. Eg.1

j.Ammonium bicarbonate or substitute is uniformly sprayed on the heated surface of the heating device and covered with aluminum foil to prevent the carbonic acid hydrogen ammonia or its substitute in disinfection reaction with formaldehyde. The aluminum foil should be placed so that ammonia can be released during heating or ready to remove aluminum foil at the beginning of the neutralization phase. Removal of aluminum foil is not allowed when the formaldehyde leakage out of the safety cabinet of;
Eg.2
The safety cabinet with the gloves for a whole plastic film sealing. Ammonium bicarbonate or equivalent substitutes are placed in a container in a safety cabinet. During the neutralization phase, the disinfected personnel into the safety cabinet through the gloves do not break the sealing system. The ammonium bicarbonate or equivalent substitutes are removed from the sealed container and uniformly sprinkled on the heating surface of the heating device, then the heating device is energized, the ammonium bicarbonate or the substitute is heated to release the ammonia.
k. Putting heating plate, water beaker and hygrothermograph on the work table, do not connect the wires to the power supply in the cabinet.

l. Sealing the front operating window with thick plastic film and plastic strips. Seal all the area where possible to leak. Such as wire outlet, the surrounding of front operating window and joint between plastic film and biological safety cabinet.

m. Measure the temperature and humidity inner the cabinet.

n. The humidity is at 60%~85% when temperature is above 21℃, heating the water in the beak up to the expected temperature and humidity.

o. Before depolymerizing the formaldehyde, strictly restrict entry to the area around biological safety cabinet or room in accordance with related regulation and safety measures.

p. Connect the wire of the heater with socket outside the cabinet.

q. 25% formaldehyde is depolymerized open the safety cabinet fan 10 s ~ l 5 s. after the para-formaldehyde is depolymerized by 50%, 75% and 100%, repeating the above steps. If the safety cabinet fan does not work, Use auxiliary fans to promote air circulation in the cabinet, or prolong the disinfection time over Step P .

r. Disconnect the power supply of the heating plate and heater for the use of triformol

s. Keep the biological safety cabinet isolation at least 6 hours, it is better to leave it for a night.

t. Prepare the neutralizer, power off the heating device and the fan of biological safety cabinet until ammonium bicarbonate wiped away, the operation of triformol is also the same, after the decomposition of 20% ammonium bicarbonate, open the fan for 10 s~l 5 s, using assisted fan or electric fan to promote the air circulation inner biological safety cabinet or prolong the neutralization time for at least 6 h if the fan of the biological safety cabinet does not work.
