ISINFECTION
If required by your laboratory protocol, clean and manually disinfect the incubator chamber and
shelving components. Cleaning and disinfecting during installation reduces the risk of
contamination. The chamber and shelving were cleaned at the factory, and a decontamination
cycle was run to verify the cycle functionality. However, Sheldon Manufacturing cannot guarantee
that the incubator was not exposed to contaminants during shipping.
Please see the Cleaning and Disinfecting entry on page 39 in the User Maintenance section for
information on how to clean and disinfect without damaging the incubator or its components. A
decontamination cycle will be run as part of the Incubator setup in the Operation section.

ATER
Do not use deionized water to clean or humidify the incubator. Use of deionized water may
corrode metal surfaces and voids the warranty. Sheldon Manufacturing recommends the use of
distilled water in the resistance range of 50K Ohm/cm to 1M Ohm/cm, or a conductivity range of
20.0 uS/cm to 1.0 uS/cm, for cleaning and humidifying applications.
