8.5 Cleaning Cooling Condensers
⚫ The surface of the condenser fins of the cooling system must be kept clean and free of
dust to ensure optimum heat dissipation
⚫ To clean the fins and copper tubing of the condenser, use vacuum cleaner or feather
duster for gentle cleaning.
8.6 Cleaning and Replacing the Sticky Mat
⚫ To clean the sticky mat, scrub the surface gently with scouring pad until there is no
residual on the mat. Disinfect with quaternary ammonium compounds.
⚫ The adhesive strength of the Sticky Mat can last for several years if the Sticky Mat is
properly cared. However, the life span varies upon the frequency of use, maintenance,
and the environment where it’s used. When if the adhesiveness of the Sticky Mat cannot
be restored by cleaning, it must be replaced.
⚫ After extended period of time, it will become difficult to remove the vessels off the Sticky
Mat. In this case, do not use excessive force to do so, as this will result in damaging the
Sticky Mat. To avoid possible damages, use small amount of water around the bottom of
the vessel, once the vessels start dislodging, slowly pull off the mat.
⚫ Avoid exposure to direct sunlight.
