 Pay attention to compatibility of
materials when selecting cleaning
agents
the following section
Accidental changes to the needle
depth due to greasing
If the grip or O-rings are greased, this
may cause the grip to become too
easy to turn. That in turn can cause the
needle depth to be altered accidentally.
 Never apply grease to the grip or the
switch off
O-rings.

Based on the following material com-
patibilities, you can assess which other
cleaning agents and disinfectants are
suitable.
The HAWK Pen's anodized aluminum
components resist:
• Weak acids (e.g. acetic acid ≤ 10%, citric
acid ≤ 10%)
• Aliphatic hydrocarbons (e.g. pentane,
hexane)
• Ethanol
• Most inorganic salts and their aqueous
solutions (e.g. sodium chloride, calcium
chloride, magnesium sulphate)
The components of the HAWK Pen are not
resistant to:
• Strong acids (e.g. hydrochloric acid,
sulphuric acid, nitric acid)
• Oxidising acids (e.g. peracetic acid)
• Lyes (e.g. caustic soda, ammonia and
all substances with a pH value > 7)
• Aromatic/halogenised
(e.g. phenol, chloroform) as well as
• acetone and benzene
hydrocarbons
