Cleaning and Sanitizing Solutions
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 five
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
manufacturer’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 200 parts per million (PPM)
chlorine (e.g. Sodium Hypochlorite or bleach) and a minimum of
five gallons of sanitizing solution should be prepared.
Other Supplies Needed:
1. Clean cloth towels
2. Bucket
3. Extra nozzle
4. Sanitary gloves
5. Small brush (PN 22-0017)
Integrity of Plastic Finish
While caring for your unit, please note that there may be some
cleaners that may compromise the integrity of the powder coated
finish. The recommended method for cleaning the powder
coated surface is to use warm water and a mild soap such
as Windex, Dawn, 409, etc. Certain chemical cleaners such
as Acetone, Mineral Spirits, or Lacquer thinners could cause
aesthetic damage. Thoroughly rinse with water after cleaning the
surface.
Nozzle Sanitizing Solution
Prepare a chlorine solution (less than pH 7.0) containing 50
PPM chlorine with clean, potable water at a temperature of
90°F – 110°F (32°C - 43°C). Any sanitizing solution may be
used as long as it is prepared according to manufacturer’s
recommendations and safety guidelines, and provides 50 PPM
chlorine.
