6.5. Chemical Cleaning and Sanitization Precautions
• Avoid direct skin contact with cleaning chemicals. Use appropriate
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), such as safety glasses,
gloves and protective clothing.
• Flush all hoses and tank with clean water BEFORE adding chemicals.
• Pressure-test CIP system and connecting hoses with water before adding chemicals
to tank.
• To reduce the possibility of chemical sprays, relieve the pressure in chemical lines
before disassembly.
• Do not run a cleaning solution through the system when DC power is applied to the
module. Make sure the DC power is off before cleaning.
• Follow the manufacturer’s chemical safety instructions on the
container labels.
• Check the pH level in any solution before letting it flow to the drain. Follow all discharge
limitations.
6.6. Typical Procedure for Cleaning or Sanitization

6.6.1 Preparation
• Turn off the DC power supply.
• Drain most of water from the CEDI system.
• Close the CEDI system feed valve and product valve.
• Connect the discharge of the cleaning pump to the MX system feed CIP connection.
• Connect the CEDI system reject and product CIP connections to the cleaning tank.
• Verify that all piping connections are secure.
• Close cleaning pump discharge valve until ready to pump the cleaning solution into
the MX system.
6.6.2 Cleaning
• Follow the instructions in Section 6.6.1 (above) to prepare the MX system for chemical
cleaning.
• Make sure the tank drain valve is closed.
• Fill the tank with the required amount of water, according to the applicable solution
recipe in Section 6.7.
• Circulate water through the CEDI system, check CIP apparatus for leaks, fix any leaks
