VERTICAL FLOW:
The device must be placed above the doors of the
controlled contamination room (clean room), with air
flow directed downwards. Use the two supplied
stainless-steel brackets, anchoring them to the wall
with expansion bolts (
8 to
10 mm.) or with self-
tapping screws.
This arrangement generates a vertical air flow which
produces barrier against germs (pic. 2).
For proper use you should create a decontamination
area between two adjoining rooms, to be kept under
microbiological and hygienic control. This zone
can be made simply by a double opening, door
and Avant-door system, just over the front door wide
and about 1.5 to 2 meters deep.
Of course, the doors should be normally closed
(preferably equipped with electrical or mechanical
locking, spring-return type). Normally, only one port
at a time must be opened and when one door is
opened, to allow entry of the decontamination area
the second door must stay closed; After the
entrance, the person will close the first door and, in
succession, will open the second closed door.
When a person is within the decontamination area the
infrared ray presence detector will switch off the UV-
FLOW, to protect personnel from UV irradiation; the
sensor will switch on the UV-FLOW again when the
person has left the area.
However, it is not required to switch off the UV-
FLOW if personnel wear UV-C ray protection
clothing, such as hats with visors, and stay within the
decontamination area only f o r the necessary time
of passage.
