Do I need special venting in the reuse area to evacuate RENALIN Cold Sterilant fumes during reuse?
A. As a result of the closed system design of the RENATRON II System, exhaust fans that provide the reuse room with five room exchanges per hour will meet OSHA requirements and provide a comfortable working atmosphere for staff. When planning ventilation design, the ducts, grills and other air handling equipment should be made of nonmetallic construction to avoid later problems with corrosion. The exhaust vents should not be placed in the ceiling. As RENALIN vapors are heavier than air, preferred placement of vents is at counter-top height just behind the RENATRON II System or immediately adjacent to areas where RENALIN Cold Sterilant is used and mixed.
