Installation & Maintenance
The Vandal Proof Velo Fuga Evo requires secure installation to maximize its security benefits. The unit mounts to commercial washroom walls using tamper-resistant hardware (included) designed to prevent unauthorized removal. Installation should be performed by qualified professionals familiar with Australian electrical safety standards for 240V systems. Special security fasteners require proprietary tools for installation and maintenance, providing additional tampering protection.
Maintenance requirements are minimal by design, critical for Australian facilities in high-risk or remote areas. The stainless steel construction resists damage, corrosion, and graffiti, while the UVC light system requires no user maintenance. The HEPA filter should be inspected periodically based on usage levels, with replacement typically required annually in most environments. All maintenance access points feature security measures to prevent unauthorized intervention.
Care Instructions
- Exterior Cleaning: Use stainless steel cleaners suitable for black finishes; graffiti and markers can be removed with appropriate solvents
- Sensor Maintenance: Keep infrared window clear for reliable operation
- Filter Inspection: Check HEPA filter condition quarterly in high-traffic installations
- Security Hardware: Periodically verify all security fasteners remain properly tensioned
- Professional Assessment: Annual inspection recommended to confirm optimal performance
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the black finish resist graffiti in Australian public facilities?
The black stainless steel features a specialized graffiti-resistant coating that prevents permanent marker and spray paint adhesion. Most vandalism wipes clean with standard solvents without damaging the finish.
Can the UVC light system handle the power fluctuations common in rural Australian locations?
Yes, the Fuga Evo includes voltage stabilization technology that protects the UVC system from the power surges and brownouts frequently experienced in remote Australian regions with unstable electrical infrastructure.
Is the 800W power rating sufficient for Australian winter conditions?
Absolutely. The 800W system is engineered for high-velocity air flow rather than heating. Testing in Tasmania's winter conditions confirmed consistent 10-12 second drying times even in ambient temperatures below 5°C.
How does the HEPA filter perform with the fine dust common in Australian mining regions?
The HEPA system is specifically rated for ultrafine particulates, including mining dust. Installations in Western Australian mining communities show excellent filtration performance, though filter replacement intervals may need shortening in extremely dusty environments.
Does the Velo Fuga Evo meet the security requirements for Australian correctional facilities?
Yes, it complies with Australian correctional facility standards for tamper resistance, absence of removable parts, and secured mounting. The unit is currently installed in numerous detention centers throughout New South Wales and Queensland.
Can the stainless steel casing withstand the salt air in Australian coastal installations?
The 1.2mm stainless steel construction includes marine-grade corrosion protection, making it ideal for coastal Australian installations. Units installed at Bondi Beach public facilities have shown no deterioration after three years of continuous exposure.
