6.1 Abuse & Neglect
We designed the Nexus Hand to be robust, but it still cannot withstand intentional abuse. The Nexus Hand
cannot sustain excessive impacts or excessive water damage.
6.3 Harsh Chemicals/Abrasives
The Nexus Hand is made up of a variety of materials which may be vulnerable to damage by various chemicals,
such as solvents, acids, alkalis, corrosive substances, detergents, and similar chemicals.
Please avoid exposing the Nexus Hand to any harsh chemicals that may cause damage. If your patient chooses
to clean their Nexus Hand, please ensure they use mild soap and water. Abrasive cleaners and cleaning cloths
will scratch the cover.
6.2 IP44
The Nexus Hand has been tested and certified with IP44 rating, which classifies the degree of protection that
is provided against solids and water. The Nexus Hand is protected against solid objects over 1 mm in diameter
and is also protected against sprays or splashes from all directions.
The wrist interface is not IP44 water or dust resistant as it is highly dependent on the individual socket build.
The wrist area on the hand should be kept dry at all times.
