2. Clean the Sorter unit: (after every shift)
- 1. Clean all areas that come into contact with the product from top to bottom (brush lightly and rinse
with cold water).
Attention: - Always clean from top to bottom, to prevent dirt from piling up on the lower
sorter parts.
- Make sure all doors and cabinets are closed.
- When hydroblasting, spray from at least 30 cm distance, and avoid spraying
directly on the control panel, the belt edges and the joints of cabinets and
doors.
- Never spray directly into bearings, air gun valves and the edges of the
rotating light tubes.
3. Clean the Sorter Belt: (after every shift)
- 1. Clean the Belt daily with an Alkaline detergent.
- Remove coarse and loose dirt by brushing and rinsing with cold water
- Apply alkaline cleaning solution by spraying, brushing or foaming
- Rinse thoroughly after the prescribed saturation time
- Disinfect and rinse again if necessary
- 3. Once a week an Acid detergent should be used instead of an Alkaline, to prevent lime deposits.
- Always rinse thoroughly afterwards.
- Never use an Acid detergent when the equipment will not be used for more than 24 hours.
Attention: - Never exceed the proscribed concentration of detergent or the saturation
time, for this could damage the belt.
- The environmental temperature or the temperature of water or detergents
should never exceed 50°C, for this may cause protein adhesion, and thus
reduce the sorting effi ciency.
- When hydroblasting, spray from at least 30 cm distance, and avoid spraying
the Belt edges.
- Be very careful with sharp objects, such as steel sponges or putty knives,
these can easily damage the Belt.
