fog device. All users and employees must be adequately trained in all matters relating to misting and documented in writing.
Use in rooms:
The following points must be observed for proper function. The room to be fogged must be sealed so that the mist cannot
escape and cause damage. The room must have suffi cient ventilation. Protect technical equipment that could be attacked by
the fog, such as control technology, lighting or heating technology. From a certain room size, additional ventilation is required
to evenly distribute the fog. The equipment of the rooms must be such that the fog jet can fl ow freely into the room for 3-5 m,
otherwise undesirable highly concentrated deposits can occur. The device must be operated and stored frost-free.

For your safety

General safety instructions:
All employees and temporary workers must be instructed on a record of the safety regulations to be observed. The cold fog
device may only be used when it is in perfect condition. If damage is found before or during operation, the operation of the
system must be stopped immediately. All measures must be taken to prevent further damage to equipment and facilities
or damage to plants and animals, the environment and people. The compressed air connection may only be connected or
disconnected when the lines are free of pressure and fl ow.
All parts of the structure or vehicles etc. in the room to be treated, technical equipment, or other items must be checked for
their compatibility with regard to the means to be used! Modern disinfectants often contain acids.
The general regulations for handling acids must be observed. The compatibility of the acids with the materials installed in the
device must also be checked. The applicable health and safety guidelines and the Hazardous Substances Ordinance must
be observed. The ambient temperature for the device must not be below 5 ° C. The ST-83 disinfection device may only be
moved with a completely empty container. It is forbidden to stand in front of the fog machine in the operating state.
Entering the room while fogging and until the end of ventilation is only permitted with appropriate personal protective clothing.
Just as the nebulized substances require. Particular importance is attached to the highest protection of the respiratory tract!
- see. GBG 11 - face protection or glasses according to EN full mask according to EN standard protective suit for toxins -
universal protective gloves guideline 13-3 / 2. If no fog is visible, it does not mean that there is no longer any danger. Envi-
ronmentally hazardous substances must be safely stored until they are used and disposed of in an environmentally friendly
manner in accordance with the applicable regulations. The foggy room must be effectively protected against entry by unau-
thorized persons.
Risks of misuse of the cold fog process:
Safety at work - Inadequate professional training of employees can lead to improper use and damage to people, the envi-
ronment, cultures or materials. Nebulized substances penetrate the organism faster than in other forms if they are inhaled
through the lungs without adequate personal protective equipment.
Neglecting personal protective measures (gas mask, protective suit, gloves), for example, when entering the room in the
foggy atmosphere can lead to health damage even if no more fog is visible! Use of substances: If substances that are not ap-
proved for the process are used or there is no feedback from the manufacturer for proper use, undesirable results can result.
Flammable substances (liquids and dusts) must not be atomized because there is a risk of explosion.
Improper use of agents belonging to the group of dangerous substances can lead to damage. Agents that contain acids,
bases or solvents can damage the device. Procedural non-compliance with the BDA's work steps can lead to unforeseen
fog and thus damage. Facilities that are in the room and are not adequately protected can be attacked. Air is supplied to
the rooms during misting, which must escape somewhere. Escape must be possible and it must be taken into account in all
health and safety considerations.
Openings that are not taken into account in the room to be misted can lead to undesired wetting and thus damage to devices,
living things or the environment in other rooms or in the open. If any objects are wetted too densely with agents, highly con-
centrated deposits with consequential damage can result.
