Chlorosan - Chlorine Disinfectant Tablets with Detergent
Chlorosan detergent disinfectant tablets combine cleaning with EN 13697 surface-disinfection and EN 13727 bactericidal performance. ChloroSan chlorine tablets are added to water to provide a biocidal solution suitable for disinfection and cleaning in healthcare and other demanding environments where disinfection is an integral part of the everyday hygiene regime.
Detergent cleaning with chlorine disinfection
Chlorosan contains sodium dichloroisocyanurate in an effervescent base, together with detergent. The formulation brings both actions into the same prepared solution. It is intended for general hard surfaces in clinical environments and other premises requiring effective disinfection.
Evidence for a range of microorganisms
Scotmas supplies bacterial, yeast, fungal, virus and spore test data, with separate clean- and dirty-condition treatments. The technical information includes EN 13727, EN 13624, EN 13697, EN 14476, EN 16777 and EN 17126 results. The detailed preparations remain in the directions and specifications below.
EN 13697, EN 13727 and related efficacy
Scotmas documents EN 13727 bacterial, EN 13624 yeast and fungal, EN 13697 surface, EN 14476 virus, EN 16777 surface-virus and EN 17126 spore results. These standards give the detergent-containing Chlorosan formulation a defined role in clinical and commercial hygiene, with organism-specific treatments preserved in the technical table.

Directions for Use
Preparation and application
Measure the water and add the required tablet count. Use warm water no hotter than 30°C and allow tablets to dissolve fully. Wet the surface completely and maintain the stated contact time. Follow the supplied label for surface compatibility and any finishing procedure.
Bacterial and yeast disinfection
For clean conditions, the technical sheet specifies 1 tablet in 10 litres, giving 100ppm, for 1 minute. For dirty conditions, it specifies 1 tablet in 1 litre, giving 1,000ppm, for 5 minutes. Select the appropriate conditions for the task.
Fungal disinfection
The table specifies 1 tablet in 1 litre, giving 1,000ppm, for 15 minutes under clean conditions. Under dirty conditions, use 5 tablets in 2 litres, giving 2,500ppm, for 15 minutes.
Viral and spore treatments
For the listed virucidal treatment, the table specifies 1 tablet in 2 litres, giving 500ppm, for 5 minutes under either clean or dirty conditions. For the stated clean-condition sporicidal treatment, it specifies 5 tablets in 2 litres, giving 2,500ppm, for 10 minutes.
Handling and storage
Store tablets in the original tightly closed container in a cool, dry place. Do not mix chlorine solutions with acids or other chemicals. Follow the current label and site procedure for protective equipment and specialist clinical or spill treatments; use the tablet preparation method rather than applying tablets as granules.
