•Unplug the device when not in use for extended periods.
ATTENTION : HUMANS,ANIMALS AND VEGETATION SHOULD NOT BE PRESENT WHEN THE DISINFECTION
PROCESS BEGINS.AT THE END OF THE DISINFECTION CYCLE,THE OPERATOR MUST ENSURE THAT
THE HYDROGEN PEROXIDE LEVEL (H2O2)IS SUFFICIENTLY LOW (EXPOSURE LIMIT VALUE AT 8
HOURS ELV =1 PPM (1.5 MG/M3)).
IF AN OPERATOR HAS TO RE-ENTER THE ROOM BEFORE THE END OF THE DISINFECTION CYCLE,
THEY MUST WEAR THE FOLLOWING PERSONAL PROTECTION EQUIPMENT:INDIVIDUAL
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION DEVICE (EN 133) OR A GAS-FILTERING RESPIRATOR (EN 141);
RECOMMENDED FILTER:ABEK-P2. IT IS ALSO RECOMMENDED TO WEAR NOISE-CANCELLING
HEADPHONES IF THE UNIT HAS NOT FINISHED ITS SPRAYING CYCLE (HIGH NOISE).
BEFORE CARRYING OUT ANY WORK ON AN ELECTRICAL COMPONENT, SWITCH OFF THE DEVICE
AND DISCONNECT IT FROM THE MAINS.
ATTENTION : WORK ON THE RHEA ONE (INCLUDING ELECTRICAL CIRCUITS,ELECTRONIC BOARDS)MUST
ONLY BE CARRIED OUT BY AIRINSPACE®MAINTENANCE PERSONNEL OR DULY TRAINED
PERSONNEL.
THE USER IS LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGE,REGARDLESS OF ITS NATURE,CAUSED BY NON-
COMPLIANCE WITH THE USAGE RULES AND SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS.

1.6 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION OF THE DEVICE
1.6.1 INTENDED USE
RHEA One is a portable automated parts disinfection unit which effectively combats fungi, yeasts,
bacteria, viruses, mycobacteria and spores. As a tool designed to control surface contamination and
combat hospital-acquired infections, the RHEA One can be used wherever the risk of surface
contamination must be controlled. It should only be used with the X-CID solution sold by airinspace®.
1.6.2 OPERATING PRINCIPLES
RHEA One generates a hydrogen peroxide (7%), acetic acid (5%) and peracetic acid (0.4%)-based X-
CID disinfection solution using a technique that provides a diffusion of micro-droplets that form a dry
and cold mist. This diffusion enables the disinfecting agents to make contact with all surfaces.
Spraying is a 3-stage process:
- The diffusion time (spraying) depends on the size of the room to be processed.
- The contact time represents the time between spraying and the complete disinfection of the
room.
- The safety time is the time required for the concentration of hydrogen peroxide to become
sufficiently low (the Exposure Limit Value is 1 ppm).
Several protocols, validated according to the standard NF EN 17272: 2020, 2020. The RHEA One/X-
CID duo has bactericidal, fungicidal, virucidal, yeasticidal, mycobactericidal, tuberculocidal and
sporicidal properties.(see 2.1.2)
Please contact airinspace®for more information on these certifications.

1.6.3 DESCRIPTION OF THE DISINFECTION CYCLE:
•Clean the room with a detergent.
•If needed, caulk the windows, doors and intake and return outlets, as well as the smoke detectors. If
covering the smoke detectors, you must inform those responsible for fire safety on the site. If covering
intake and return outlets, check the technical feasibility and potential peripheral impacts.
•Position the device depending on the space in the room (see §1.8).
•Switch on the appliance (see §2.1.3) and follow the operating instructions.
•Leave the room and lock the door if needed.
•Ensure that a visible and understandable warning sign (DANGER –ACCESS PROHIBITED) is attached
to the outside of the door. Use a high-quality adhesive. It is also recommended that a tape is crossed
over the door to prevent access to the room.
•A countdown will run throughout the spray cycle. Spraying stops automatically when the required
quantity of product has been sprayed.
•At the end of the spray cycle, a new countdown will run throughout the contact time.
•The machine will beep when the contact time is up. An operator wearing protective equipment such as
an individual respiratory protection device (EN 133) or a gas-filtering respirator (EN 141), ABEK-P2 filter
recommended, may enter the room to check the hydrogen peroxide concentration.
•Don’t forget to uncover the smoke detectors at the end of the safety time (when the hydrogen peroxide
level is less than or equal to 1 ppm).
DRY MIST DIFFUSION DIRECTION
ATTENTION : HUMANS,ANIMALS AND VEGETATION SHOULD NOT BE PRESENT WHEN THE DISINFECTION CYCLE
BEGINS.AT THE END OF THE DISINFECTION CYCLE,THE OPERATOR MUST ENSURE THAT THE
HYDROGEN PEROXIDE LEVEL (H2O2)IS SUFFICIENTLY LOW (PROFESSIONAL EXPOSURE LIMIT
VALUE AT 8HOURS ELV =1 PPM (1.5 MG/M3)).
IF AN OPERATOR HAS TO RE-ENTER THE ROOM BEFORE THE END OF THE DISINFECTION CYCLE,THEY MUST WEAR
THE FOLLOWING PERSONAL PROTECTION EQUIPMENT:INDIVIDUAL RESPIRATORY PROTECTION DEVICE (EN 133)
OR A GAS-FILTERING RESPIRATOR (EN 141); RECOMMENDED FILTER:ABEK-P2
ATTENTION : BIO CLEANING MUST BE CARRIED OUT BEFORE BEGINNING THE AIRBORNE DISINFECTION CYCLE
OF SURFACES.
