machine (the rotary knob of the electromechanical timer allows programming the volume to
be treated and/or the running time, and the “forced recovery” switch is used to speed up
ventilation of the disinfected room).
* Spray cone with the self-cleaning nozzle and the fan protected by two
stainless steel screens.
The lower frame supports the essential components: compressor, peristaltic pump,
electronic board, fan.

•: Timer / programmer
This control has two functions:
- turning on the AEROSEPT 100 VF
- programming the diffusion time and therefore the amount of disinfectant to be sprayed,
depending on the volume of the room to be treated.
„: Forced recovery
Forced recovery is accelerated ventilation of the room after disinfection.
Forced recovery is switched on by rotating the knob to the right to the EN position (in
service) and switched off by setting the knob to HORS (out of service).

A - RECOMMENDATIONS
CAUTION:
B – START-UP
These stages are aerosolization (amount of product), contact time (minimum time for full
microbiological action), and recovery (forced ventilation of the room).
CAUTION:
Stop the air-conditioning or automatic ventilation systems normally used for room air
renewal.
PROGRAMMING
3 - Where possible, place the AEROSEPT 100 VF in the middle of the room at least
1 m from the walls.
Volume to be
treated (in 20 40 60 80 100 120 140 160 180 200 220

Amount of
disinfectant 160 320 480 640 800 960 1120 1280 1440 1600 1760
(in ml)
Note: It can be considered that if the product level in the can is less than 2 cm then
the amount of disinfectant is inadequate to treat 20 m3. Replace the can by a
new can of 5 litres.
8 – Programme the volume using the timer knob (•) (rotate clockwise) by setting the
index mark to the volume found. The diffusion time is then indicated. Note down
this diffusion time. At this time: the device is cycling with the orange light on.
The countdown from 60 seconds starts.
9 - Leave the room, and shut the room up. only for a part of the device.
1 - When the 60 seconds have elapsed, disinfection begins and the electromechanical
timer counts down the disinfectant spraying time,
Caution: Bar anyone from entering the room during the spraying time and
contact time.
RECOVERY
1 - At the end of the contact time, before entering the room, take appropriate
protective measures, use breathing protection (see the technical or safety data
sheet). Activated charcoal masks are available from Laboratoires ANIOS
(Ref: 412021),
2 - Enter the room and turn on accelerated ventilation of the room by rotating the
forced recovery button „ to the right (to the EN position),
4 - The recovery time is out when the concentration of substances in the air is lower
than the exposure limits specified by the Ministry of Labour. An average time of
half an hour is recommended for recovery,
5 - Check that the product level has dropped in the can to make sure that the device
did run,
The following checks and corrective actions can be performed by the customer.

d - Precautions
Caution: Never inject oil or grease. Never use any acid, caustic or chlorinated solvent.
Very carefully check that the diaphragm is never in contact with a petroleum- or
hydrocarbon-based product. This may affect the service life of your compressor and
therefore the AEROSEPT 100 VF.
The customer can perform three kinds of operations on the compressor. For other
operations, it is necessary to return the compressor to LABORATOIRES ANIOS.
Nevertheless, the first two cases are the commonest and involve a consumable
necessary for the compressor life. The third case is very rare. These cases are the
following:
1 - Diaphragm change,
2 – Cleaning the filters and/or rubber seals,
3 - Standard replacement of the compressor.
For all of the operations, it is important not to leave any burr or nick on the screw
heads. Burrs or nicks would damage the valves.
Diaphragm change:
a - Description
Only the Novoprene flexible tube of the peristaltic pump is in contact with the
disinfectant
The pumps is self-priming and will safely run dry and is designed to resist acids and
bases. Maximum safety is achieved with the use of non-corrosive liquid, such as the
ASEPTANIOS TERMINAL HPH range.
b - Technical data
The customer can perform two kinds of operations on the pump. For any other
operation, it is necessary to return the pump to LABORATOIRES ANIOS.
The customer can perform the following:
1 - Tube change or repair,
2 - Standard replacement of the pump.
The methods are described below.
• On the upper part, on the pump side, rotate the locking piece (black) clockwise
to gain access to the tube,
• Then remove the white piece by pulling outwards to the right and to the left,
• Remove the tube from its housing,
