IP Protection degree:
All LINAK products can be cleaned as follow according to their IP protection, which
is stated on the product label.
The IP code specifi es the degrees of protection provided by the enclosures. Only
the protection against ingress of water (second characteristic numeral) is specifi ed,
ingress of solid foreign objects (fi rst characteristic numeral) is not specifi ed and
therefore replaced by the letter X in the code.
The materials are resistant to the majority of cleaners and disinfectants used in the
hospital and nursing home sector.
Cleaning with a steam cleaner, for example, is not permitted, as it will not be
possible to maintain a minimum distance of 300 mm from the electrical parts.
The following directions regarding cleaners and disinfectants must be
complied with:
• They must not be highly alkaline or acidic (pH value 6-8).
• They must not contain caustic agents.
• Their contents must not be able to change the structure of the surface or
adhesion of the plastic.
• They must not break down grease.
