CLEANING AND SANITIZING
General Information
• Lancer equipment (new or reconditioned) is shipped from
the factory cleaned and sanitized in accordance with NSF
guidelines. The operator of the equipment must provide
continuous maintenance as required by this manual and/or
state and local health department guidelines to ensure prop-
er operation and sanitation requirements are maintained.
• Cleaning should be accomplished only by trained personnel.
Sanitary gloves are to be used during cleaning operations.
Applicable safety precautions must be observed. Instruction
warnings on the product being used must be followed.
Cleaning Solution
Mix a mild, non-abrasive detergent (e.g. Sodium Laureth
Sulfate, dish soap) with clean, potable water at a temperature
of 90°F to 110°F (32°C to 43°C). The mixture ratio is one
ounce of cleaner to two gallons of water. Prepare a minimum of
ve gallons of cleaning solution. Do not use abrasive
cleaners or solvents because they can cause permanent
damage to the unit. Ensure rinsing is thorough, using clean,
potable water at a temperature of 90°F to 110°F. Extended
lengths of product lines may require additional cleaning solution.
Sanitizing Solution
Prepare the sanitizing solution in accordance with the manu-
facturer’s written recommendations and safety guidelines. The
type and concentration of sanitizing agent recommended in
the instructions by the manufacturer shall comply with 40 CFR
§180.940. The solution must provide 100 parts per million (PPM)
chlorine (e.g. Sodium Hypochlorite or bleach) and a minimum of
ve gallons of sanitizing solution should be prepared.
