• 100% mortality of insects in all development stages (from eggs to adults)

• by reducing oxygen (O2) in a gastight room to an extreme low level:less than 0,5%

• While maintaining Rh at optimum level at +2% range

ZerOx treatment

Page 5: The art of treatment & conservation. About b-Cat Cultural heritage: conservation and preservation Sport: High Altitude Climate chambers official Olympic.

ZerOx ….how it works?

• Meticulous control of Rh at +2% `• 100% non-toxic treatments

• No residual chemicals

• Safe for all materials

• Avoids ageing, corrosion & generally oxidations

• Eradicates insects in all development stages

• Prevents growth of aerobic pathogens such as moulds

• Fungi static

• Individual settings possible for each connected room

ZerOx:Meticulous control

• Controls up to 100 different rooms, showcases or bags • Every room or bag can have its own settings (Rh, O2, 0C)• Constant data reading & logging (per min, hour or day)• Remote monitoring• Stand alone possible• Online monitoring & alarm system

All materials have their own optimum conditions

Summary of advantages ZerOx:

Both for conservation as well as treatment purposes

100% mortality of insects in all development stages

100% non-toxic, no residual chemicals

Safe for materials

Avoids ageing, corrosion & generally oxidations (if under low oxygen conditions)

Fungi static, prevent growth of aerobic pathogens such as moulds

Individual settings possible for optimal climate conditions in each connected room

Meticulous control of Rh at + 2% in each room

….more advantages

Significant savings can be realised on restoration & maintenance cost

Irreversible damage can be avoided

The central control unit and oxygen scrubber can be used for up to 100 connected rooms, showcases, bags etc.

Can be used as FIRE PREVENTION, FIRE PREVENTION, no sprinkler installation required in e.g. depots

Online monitoring & alarm system of all conditions & parameters
