H2O2 Decontamination
The use of H2O2 decontamination
in biological safety cabinets and barrier
isolators is a popular alternative to
ethylene oxide (EtO) as a safer, more
efcient decontamination method.
H
has long been widely used in the
2O2
pharmaceutical industry. In aerospace
research, H
satellites and cleanrooms.
is used to decontaminate
2O2
Unlike conventional incubators, unique
features of the Panasonic Sterisonic
GxP incubator permit use of the H
process in situ with complete safety,
zero impact on adjacent equipment or
the environment, and speed to return
the incubator to service.
• The H
decontamination process
2O2
functions with the patented Panasonic SafeCell UV system. Following
a seven-minute H
circulation and dwell cycle, vaporization
is stopped and the SafeCell UV lamp
turned ON for up to ninety minutes.
• When exposed to UV light, the H
vapor breaks down into water and
oxygen, leaving only traces of water
droplets. These droplets automatically
condense onto a cooler section of the
interior oor for easy wipe-up.
• Throughout the entire cycle the
Sterisonic GxP airow system continues to gently circulate interior air
assuring 100% vapor contact with all
interior surfaces, ultimately creating
a serial dilution of H
over the UV lamp.

• Orientation of interior sample ports

• Shape and location of interior
components such as shelves, shelf
brackets, plenum covers and the
humidity pan permit the components
to remain in the chamber during the
decontamination process, conveniently
bypassing the need for a separate
autoclave cycle.
• Once the cycle is complete, the door
locking system is released; the inner
door can be opened, interior components repositioned and the incubator
is returned to service.
Ergonomic Cabinet Design
With reversible inner and outer doors,
a single Panasonic incubator offers the
industry's most exible installation
options available.
• Low prole cabinet with door-mounted

• The heated outer door closes against a
soft, easily cleaned magnetic gasket
designed to eliminate ambient air

minimizing condensation.
• A door ajar alarm provides an audible
and visual warning if the outer door
is left open.
• A center-mounted key lock is located
beneath the door for added security.

Shelves and Inventory
Management
Convenient space efcient inventory
management is simplied through a system of adjustable, extendable shelves.
• Inventory shelves and brackets
are formed from polished copperenriched stainless steel, removable
without tools, and can remain
inside the incubator during the H
decontamination cycle or autoclaved
separately if desired.

• Shelves are perforated to permit natural vertical air convection through and
around labware.
• Shelf brackets are formed with an
exaggerated angle to minimize surface
contact with at shelves. Brackets slip
easily into vertical supports that attach
to interior chamber walls with clearance sufcient to permit proper air
circulation.
Inner Door and Gasket
The inner design is critical to successful
contamination control technique.
• The inner gasket body forms an
effective thermal transition between
the ambient air and warm, humidied
incubator atmosphere, minimizing
condensation and eliminating moisture
traps which can harbor contaminants.
• The inner door gasket is a dual
durometer extrusion (two levels of
softness) from closed-cell silicone
to inhibit contamination.
• The gasket feather-edge allows
the inner glass door to close gently
against the chamber opening for
a tight peripheral seal.
MCO-19AIC(UVH) Double Stack Option
Stacking Doubles Capacity
in Same Footprint.
• The Sterisonic GxP cabinet is
designed for stacking, allowing one
unit to be positioned on top of
another, doubling interior volume
without additional oor space.
• The combination of stacking and
reversible doors offers the most
installation options possible.
• An optional roller base is recommended for stacked installations
to permit mobility if required;
see accessories.
• The entire inner door gasket is removable for cleaning and/or replacement
if required.
• Radiant heat from the outer door,
apportioned by the microprocessor
control as a function of the patented
Direct Heat and Air Jacket heating
cycle, automatically warms the inner
door glass in proportion to total heat
demand and condensation control.
Field Reversible Door
The eld-reversible door allows
universal installation using the left-hand
hinge (standard) or a right-hand hinge
modication
• The outer door includes a universal
nger grip at each side.
• Mounting holes for hinge hardware
are pre-drilled and capped with easily
removable trim plugs.
Elevated Humidity,
Low Water Level Warning
To avoid cell culture desiccation, the
Panasonic Sterisonic GxP CO
maintains ~95% RH at 37°C.
• Humidication is achieved by a combined forced-air and natural evaporation method enhanced by the Direct
Heat and Air Jacket heating system
base heater, and protected by an optical water level indicator to warn of low
water in the removable humidity pan.
• The humidity pan removes easily for
regular cleaning and rell.
• When lled, the pan slides into place.
The optical sensor returns to position
and the SafeCell UV lamp destroys
contaminants introduced during the
process.
• For the H

Decontamination Cycle
The H2O2 decontamination cycle is
monitored for safety and cycle status.
A physical interlock and neutralization
sequence assures total decontamination
and operator safety.
1
Start Cycle: When the H2O2 button is pressed
a conrming message prompts the user to proceed
with the decontamination cycle or cancel.
2
H2O2 Vapor Cycle: Once the door locks automatically, the cycle starts. The ashing H2O2 display
conrms the process and counts down remaining
H2O2 vaporization time.
3
UV Resolution: The H2O2 atomizer automatically
completes after a 10 minute cycle. UV lamp comes ON.
The ashing UV Resolve display counts down remaining
time in the UV cycle as H2O2 is reduced to water and
trace oxygen.
4
Cycle Complete: When the cycle is complete the
door lock releases automatically. The H2O2 atomizer and
cable can be disconnected and removed and all interior
components restored to their normal position.

Shown with connecting cable, standard.
Integrated Cooling Coil (MCO-CL)
Factory installed; specify when ordering. Water bath/
circulator not included. Permits stable operation at
ambient or below ambient temperatures.
Extends performance specications as follows:
• Temperature Range: +18°C to +50°C, distribution
±0.25°C, variation ±0.1°C.
• Relative Humidity: +5ºC above ambient to +50ºC, 95%
± 5%RH; 20ºC to 25ºC > 80%RH; 18ºC > 70%RH
Includes temperature mapping results for individual
unit per serial number.
