Four Ways
y to Maintain Safetyy & Quality
Q
y
Passivation
-- Make sure all components of the Hydrogen Peroxide system are
properly passivated
Inspection
I
i
-- Tanks and delivery system should be inspected once every two years
Sampling
-- Hydrogen Peroxide testing
-- Water quality testing
Maintenance
-- Repair defects immediately
-- Repassivate equipment if needed

General Overview
Protect against contamination
Flush
Flush Hydrogen Peroxide spillage with water
Never return Hydrogen Peroxide to its original container
-- Dilute with plenty of water and discard abiding by proper
regulations
Keep Hydrogen Peroxide storage vented at all times
Use clean, passivated equipment only
Keep
Keep combustibles away from Hydrogen Peroxide storage
and handling areas
Drain Hydrogen Peroxide equipment and flush with water
Drain
before repair or disassembly
