Prestige 3D Antibac is an antibacterial 3 compartment power
and data trunking system designed to kill bacteria which can
grow on surfaces such as trunking systems.
It uses a silver based additive inherent within the PVCu which
acts as an effective weapon in fighting bacteria such as MRSA
and other harmful bacteria. The silver additive is a bactericide
and will therefore kill bacteria instead of just restricting their
growth.
As the additive is inherent within the PVCu compound the
antibacterial protection runs throughout the products
themselves. There is no loss of protection where the trunking
lengths are cut on-site or if the trunking surface becomes scuffed
or scratched.
The Antibac additive depends on intimate contact between
surfaces of the trunking and the user, so any barriers such as dirt
or grime will reduce or negate the antibacterial effect. Please
refer to the Cleaning & Care section of this leaflet for further
information.

• Establish Layout, Paying Particular Attention To:-
- Direction Changes
- Feed Positions
- Component Spacing
• The carrier components are not treated with the Antibac
additive. As such these must always be fixed onto a surface
such that they cannot be touched, ie. no overhangs are
allowed where the back of the trunking (extrusion or
moulding carrier) can be touched. For further installation
instructions please refer to the PRESTIGE 3D installation
guide 48396PL.
To ensure a safe installation, this product must be installed by a
competent person, in accordance with the current edition of the
IEE Wiring Regulations (BS 7671) and Building Regulations.
PLANNING THE INSTALLATION
Prestige 3D Antibac is
not
intended to replace standard
cleaning regimes. It is an additional protection which can only
operate efficiently if the surfaces are kept free of dirt and grime.
The exterior of the trunking can be cleaned using a damp cloth
with a mild detergent, which must be thoroughly wiped off. It
can also be cleaned using Ultraviolet light. The trunking must
never be cleaned using waxes or other polishes which produce a
barrier between the trunking surface and the user.
The trunking must never be painted or otherwise decorated as
this will produce a barrier between the trunking surface and the
user. This will result in reduced or total loss of the antibacterial
effect of the Antibac additive until the PVCu trunking surface is
once more exposed.
Before hand-over to the client the entire trunking run must be
thoroughly cleaned as described above.
