1. Defend 400
The Defend 400 is a medical device that inactivates aerosolized viruses, bacteria,
and fungi, and puries the air of particulate matter (PM) and volatile organic
compounds (VOCs).
The portable Defend 400 provides airborne infection control in small to medium
sized rooms where risk of hospital-acquired infections (HAIs) and surgical site
infections (SSI) is elevated due to occupancy level, high trafc ow, the type
and duration of procedures carried out, potential infectiousness of occupants,
vulnerability of patient or staff and/or localized environmental conditions.
The intended purpose of the Defend 400 is to improve the quality of air.
This equipment is suitable for use in hospitals and long-term care facilities.
The intended use of the Defend 400 includes intensive care units (ICU), high
dependency units (HDU), and other health institutions, including isolation rooms
and single-patient rooms such as operating rooms (OR).
Please read and follow all the instructions in this manual.

4. Warnings and Cautions
General Warnings and Cautions
WARNING: This equipment contains high voltage.
WARNING: This High Voltage (HV) device is not suitable for use within
atmospheres that contain potentially combustible or explosive dusts,
vapours, or gases (including oxygen-rich environments, e.g. oxygen
tents, hyperbaric chambers).
WARNING: Do not use outdoors or near water.
WARNING: This device should not be exposed to environmental sterilization
processes such as fogging or misting. Both the water vapour and
chemical agents may cause damage to internal components, thus
invalidating the warranty. The active carbon lter may also absorb the
chemical vapour, thereby minimizing the sterilization effects in the
environment, whilst also reducing the operating life of the lter.
WARNING: To avoid the risk of electric shock, this equipment must only be
connected to mains power with protective earth.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock, this equipment has a grounding
type plug that has a third (grounding) pin. This plug will only t into a
grounding type power outlet. If the plug does not t into the outlet,
contact qualied personnel to install the proper outlet. Do not alter
the plug in any way.
WARNING: If the power cord is damaged in any way, it must be replaced by a
special cord or assembly available from the manufacturer or its service
agent.
WARNING: This equipment should be inspected frequently and collected dust
removed from it regularly to prevent excessive accumulation that may
result in ashover or a risk of re.
WARNING: No modication of this equipment is allowed.
WARNING: Do not open the tamper proof screws on the casing of the device. No
serviceable parts are contained within.The devices should be opened
by authorised Novaerus personnel only.
WARNING: For continued protection against risk of re, only replace the fuse with
the same type and rating, provided in Section 6, Technical Specications.

CAUTION: Do not use other lters except those supplied by Novaerus. The use
of other brand or no-brand lters with the Defend 400 will invalidate
the claims that can be made for the performance of the Defend 400.
Novaerus also reserves the right in such situations to refuse warranty
claims.
CAUTION: The device is not meant to be lifted by the handle; wheels are provided
for mobility. While moving the device, lift the power cord off the
ground and away from the wheels. Failure to do so may result in the
power cord impeding the wheels from moving, instability, or damage.
CAUTION: Carefully remove all packaging and shipping tape before use.
CAUTION: Do not restrict the air ow of the product in any way. Make sure the
inlet and outlet are clear of any objects which may restrict airow.
CAUTION: Do not position the equipment where it is difcult to operate the
power switch.
CAUTION: Not to be used by persons (including children) with reduced physical,
sensory, or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge,
unless they have been given supervision or instruction. Children should
be supervised to ensure that they do not play with this device.
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits
for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference in a residential installation.This equipment
generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If
this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and
on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or
more of the following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different
from that to which the receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV
technician for help.
