For the User
Disclaimer
Given hydrogen peroxide vapour output and concentration values are indicative examples
and are intended to help the planning and running of decontamination processes in different
applications. The type and characteristics of the space and surfaces to be decontaminated
have an impact on the actual process parameters. Hydrogen peroxide vapour is an effective
biocide in a broad temperature range. Under certain circumstances it can create a
condensate with water vapour unfavourable for the supposedly dry decontamination
process.
High humidity rates and/or low temperatures are likely to cause condensation. This can be
prevented by conducting dry, heated air through the space prior to hydrogen peroxide
vapour production. The lower humidity permits a higher hydrogen peroxide concentration
and a dry process.
Cleamix takes no responsibility for the process parameter choices applied in individual
decontamination targets. The responsibility lies always with the user.
Cleamix reserves the right to make changes to the operating instructions.
VCS-100Cr and VCS-100Ext

Other information
Keep container in a cool place out of direct sunlight. Store only in vented containers. Do not
store on wooden pallets. Do not return unused material to its original container. Avoid
contamination - Contamination could cause decomposition and generation of oxygen
which may result in high pressure and possible container rupture. Empty drums should be
triple rinsed with water before discarding.
Eye Contact Rinse immediately with plenty of water, also under the eyelids, for at
least 15 minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present, after the first 5
minutes, then continue rinsing. Seek immediate medical
attention/advice.
Skin Contact Take off contaminated clothing. Rinse skin immediately with plenty of
water for 15-20 minutes. Call a poison control center or doctor for
further treatment advice.

Cr 2021-01-02 vs. 2.3 User Manual for VCS-100Cr 6
Inhalation Move to fresh air. If person is not breathing, contact emergency
medical services, then give artificial respiration, preferably
mouth-to-mouth if possible. Call a poison control center or
doctor for further treatment advice.
Ingestion Rinse mouth. Do not induce vomiting. If conscious, give 2 glasses
of water. Get immediate medical attention. Never give anything
by mouth to an unconscious person.
Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
Hydrogen Peroxide irritates respiratory system and, if inhaled, may
cause inflammation and pulmonary oedema. The effects may not be
immediate. Overexposure symptoms are coughing, giddiness and sore
throat. In case of accidental ingestion, necrosis may result from
mucous membrane burns (mouth, oesophagus and stomach). Oxygen
rapid release may cause stomach swelling and haemorrhaging, which
may product major, or even fatal, injury to organs if a large amount
has been ingested. In case of skin contact, may cause burns,
erythema, blisters or even necrosis.
Indication of immediate medical attention and special treatment needed, if necessary
Hydrogen peroxide at these concentrations is a strong oxidant. Direct
contact with the eye is likely to cause corneal damage especially if
not washed immediately. Careful ophthalmologic evaluation is
recommended and the possibility of local corticosteroid therapy
should be considered. Because of the likelihood of corrosive effects
on the gastrointestinal tract after ingestion, and the unlikelihood of
systemic effects, attempts at evacuating the stomach via emesis
induction or gastric lavage should be avoided. There is a remote
possibility, however, that a nasogastric or orogastric tube may be
required for the reduction of severe distension due to gas formation.
FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Suitable Extinguishing Media
Water. Do not use any other substance.
Specific Hazards Arising from the Chemical

Hydrogen Peroxide, Humidity and Temperature Sensor HPP272 provides measurement for
vaporized H2O2 concentration, relative saturation, relative humidity, and temperature.
Always remember to use the yellow transport cap when not operating. Protecting the
sensor during storage and transportation prolongs the lifetime of the sensor.
CAUTION! When there is H2O2 in the sensor's environment, the sensor must always be
powered on. When powered on, the PEROXCAP sensor is heated, which permits using the
sensor in condensing H2O2 conditions, maintains measurement performance, and
lengthens the sensor's lifetime. When the sensor is powered off, exposure to H2O2
condensation can cause the PEROXCAP sensor to fail within a day, and the sensor will not
recover.
CAUTION! Do not attempt to open the sensor body. There are no user serviceable parts
inside the sensor body.
Cleaning and Maintenance
You can clean the H2O2 and humidity sensor body and temperature sensor body and cable
by wiping them with a soft, lint-free cloth moistened with water or mild cleaning agent, such
as isopropanol. Do not wipe the filter: wiping the filter may block its pores and/or deposit
residue on the filter. If the filter is heavily contaminated, replace it.
When cleaning, follow these precautions:
• Avoid touching the filter. If you need to touch the filter, always wear clean gloves (cotton,
rubber, or similar material). Keep the filter free of any grease or oil.
• Do not scrape the sensor body.
• Do not immerse the sensor in liquid to clean it.
• Wipe cleaning agents off the sensor after cleaning. If needed, you can spray the sensor
surfaces with water. After cleaning the sensor, it is recommended to perform a chemical
purge.
The sensor must be calibrated regularly so that the measurement result is valid and the
sensor remains long-lasting. The sensor can be delivered to Cleamix for calibration.
