8.5 UNICORN method for system CIP/Sanitization/Rinsing
Introduction
This section provides an example of a complete method that may be used for system
cleaning.
Main method
The method outlined here is an example designed for a 2-pump, 10 mm inner diameter
system (max flow 600 l/h). CIP solution in this example is 1 M sodium hydroxide.
The CIP method below does not include the optional sample pump. If a sample
pump is part of the system, it should always be cleaned first. The UNICORN
method must be changed accordingly, so that it starts with the sample pump
inlets.
