Maintenance an calibration
The following points are important to sustain
correct dosing of etergents. Note that
these two tasks should be performed by an
authorised DeLaval service engineer.
• The tubes in the peristaltic pumps should
be replaced at least two times a year.
• The dosing volume (P6-P8) of the
detergent pumps should be checked
every third month. The dosing capacity
(P32-P34) may need to be adjusted.

tion bar
