Reset

If errors in the power supply or another external
condition cause a software freeze, the RCS
Flow Touch Microbial Air Sampler recognizes this
event automatically and performs an automated
reset. During the automated reset the instrument
powers off. It can be restarted by using the ON/OFF
button. The initialization is indicated by the Logo M.
In the unlikely event that the instrument is not ca-
pable to perform an automated reset a manual reset
can be performed. Therefore, the ON/OFF button is
pressed and hold for approximately eight seconds.
The instrument switches off and then, switches on
again. The initialization is indicated by the Logo M.
NOTE
For more information on the reset of certain
functions or the reconstitution of the factory
settings please contact Customer Service.

Sterilization and Disinfection

®
High
The housing of the RCS
Air Sampler is made from a very resistant polycar-
bonate (Lexan polycarbonate). It can be disinfected
by wiping or spraying with commercially available
disinfectants that are compatible with polycarbon-
ates (pH 5-8). For further material compatibility
information please contact the supplier of your
specific disinfectant agent.
For protection of the motor and the electric circuits
please avoid extermely wet conditions (i.e. by dip-
ping the instrument into fluids or by over-use of
sprays).
The Rotor, the Protection Cap and the Air Direction
Ring can be autoclaved at 121 ˚C for 20 minutes.
Avoid dry heat. The instrument itself can not be
auto claved.
NOTE
For cleaning routines unplug the RCS
Touch Microbial Air Sampler and any electric
accessory hardware from electrical supply.
When operating the RCS
bial Air Sampler in aseptic environments sterile
sleeves that cover the non autoclave-able housing
parts are available (Art. No. 1.44199.010). Please
take care to leave all openings uncovered (i.e. the
openings of the air direction ring) in order to avoid
air turbulances or changes of the flow rate.
