MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE:
• Customer must provide an inspection tag and maintain a record of inspection dates and
type of maintenance performed (i.e. adding Sterile Antimicrobial Preservative Model
9082, etc.)
• Acanthamoeba survive mild chlorination and are commonly found in tap water. Sterile
Antimicrobial Preservative Model 9082 will prevent the growth of Acanthamoeba. Hot
water, 158º F (70º C) or hotter will destroy Acanthamoeba but must be allowed to cool
prior to use in eyewash units.
STEP 1: Self cont ained eyewash equipment shall be visually checked to determine if
flushing fluid needs to be changed or supplemented. See STEP 3 for additional
information regarding activated units.
Frequency of inspection: Depending on environmental conditions, visual
inspections should be performed on either a daily, weekly or monthly basis as
some water loss will occur due to natural evaporation process.
STEP 2: T ake proper precautions to help prevent the growth of potentially harmful bacteria
in eyewash tanks. We recommend either of the following procedures:
A. Procedure 1: Use suitable Sterile Antimicrobial Preservative Model 9082 to
help prevent the growth of bacteria in eyewash tank. Eyewash tank should be
drained, flushed and refilled with clean potable water and Sterile Antimicrobial
Preservative Model 9082 as directed by the preservative’s manufacturer.
