Cleaning and maintenance
Cleaning the workstation
To ensure that your Bugbox Plus workstation remains at optimum working conditions, it must be
cleaned on a regular basis. A basic clean is required after each use. Deep cleaning is required at regular
intervals, dependent upon the nature of the materials used in the workstation. As a guide, a deep
clean should be performed at between 3-6 month intervals.
Cleaning agents
The correct cleaning agents must be used to clean the workstation. The use of incorrect cleaning
agents will damage the workstation and invalidate the warranty. The following cleaning agents are
permitted;
Ethanol, laboratory grade at a maximum concentration of 70% by volume ethanol in distilled
water.
Propanol, laboratory grade at a maximum concentration of 70% by volume propanol in
distilled water.
Tristel Fuse Sachet, 1 sachet diluted in 3 litres of distilled water, or Tristel Duo Foamer. Tristel
Fuse Sachets and Duo Foamer are available from Ruskinn Technology Limited, see section
7.4.2 for details.
Ruskinn Technology Limited anti-static cleaner.
Distilled water.
No other cleaning agents are permitted. Cleaning agents should be applied to a clean paper towel and
then to the workstation, then removed using a clean paper towel. Cleaning agents should not be
sprayed directly onto the workstation, as this may damage the shell of the workstation. The use of UV
light is not permitted in the workstation, as it will damage the acrylic shell.
