5. GENERAL DIRECTIONS FOR USE OF THE META SPC 4

Disinfection cycle (for surface disinfection ONLY):

— the surfaces to be disinfected must be cleaned before the disinfection procedure, and the user must thoroughly clean, rinse and drain the cleaning liquids from the surfaces to be disinfected;

— products must be diluted in potable water before use.

Dilution rate and contact time depends on the use considered. Please refer to the description of application method related to each use.

— Disinfection procedures by CIP: — final rinsing step (with potable water).

After the disinfection procedure, CIP vessels (pipework and tanks) are drained and rinsed with water under closed system conditions

— Disinfection procedures by dipping: — the solution shall not be re-used.

Use only once a day after production and replace it with a fresh solution daily.

— Disinfection procedures by spraying: — wet the surface completely (application rate > 20 ml/m2 but maximum 100ml/m2) in order to keep the surface wet during the required contact time. — do not use equipment until product is completely absorbed to the surface or air dried.

For PT3 uses:

— do not use equipment and surfaces or allow animals/poultry to enter the treated area until product is completely absorbed to the surface or air dried.

— the products shall not be used for the disinfection of animal transport vehicles.

— Wear chemical goggles consistent with European Standard EN 16321 or equivalent, protective clothing chemically resistant to the biocidal product, and chemical resistant gloves classified under European Standard EN 374 or equivalent. Goggles, protective clothing and glove material (preferably butyl rubber) to be specified by the authorisation holder within the product information. This is without prejudice to the application of Council Directive 98/24/EC and other Union legislation in the area of health and safety at work. See section 6 for the full titles of the EN standards and legislation.

— Use with adequate ventilation: Use engineering controls to maintain airborne level below exposure limit requirements or guidelines. Atmospheric levels shall be maintained below the exposure guideline. For all wiping and spraying application, a ventilation rate of at least 10 air changes/hour is required in the rooms where the application takes place.

— When respiratory protection is required (that is when the concentration of PAA and/or hydrogen peroxide are above their respective Acute Exposure Concentration (AEC)inhalation (0,5 mg/m3 and 1,25 mg/m3 respectively), use an approved air-purifying or positive-pressure supplied-air respirator depending on the potential airborne concentration.

— Do not use equipment and surfaces or allow animals/poultry to enter the treated area until product is completely absorbed to the surface or air dried.

— Keep out of reach of children and non-target animals and pets.

— Re-entrance into treated area is only allowed once the levels of peracetic acid and hydrogen peroxide in the air are below the AEC inhalation (respectively 0,5 mg/m3 for PAA & 1,25 mg/m3 for hydrogen peroxide)

— No bystanders are allowed in treated area during the application phase.

Do not dump into any sewers, on the ground, or into any body of water. Avoid release to the environment. High-temperature incineration is an acceptable practice.

— Containers are non-refillable. Do not reuse or refill the containers. Containers should be triple or pressure rinsed with water promptly after they are emptied. They can then be offered for recycling or reconditioning for biocidal products, or they can be punctured and disposed of in a sanitary landfill or by other procedures approved by national and local authorities. Send waste liquid from rinsing of used containers to an approved waste handling facility.

— Store between 0°C and 30°C

— Store in dark conditions

— Keep in a well-ventilated place. Keep this product in the original container when not in use. Container must be stored and transported in an upright position to prevent spilling the contents through the vent, where fitted.
