Cleaning Determine the pump cleaning schedule on-site for materials
being processed and plant maintenance schedule.
To disassemble the fluid head, see
“Fluid Head Disassembly -
Cover and Rotors” on page 34. Remove and clean the cover O-
ring, pump seals, and the rotor nut assembly. Inspect and replace
them as necessary.
NOTE: Always replace the rotor nut O-rings and product-side
seal O-rings when reassembling the pump. If the area behind
these seals becomes soiled, contact SPX FLOW Application
Engineering for a specific cleaning and sanitizing procedure
validated to remove bacteria. If a chlorine solution (200 ppm
available chlorine) is used, it should leave no residual deposits
which would remain in the pump.
CAUTION
Acid cleaners have a much higher metal corrosion rate and pump
parts should remain in acid cleaning solutions no longer than
necessary. Any strong inorganic mineral-based acids that are
harmful to your hands would be harmful to pump parts. See
“Stainless Steel Corrosion” on page 11.
In applications where material can harden in the pump during
shutdown, a CIP cleaning, flush, or disassembly of the fluid head
and manual cleaning is strongly recommended. See “CIP (Clean-
In-Place) Design” on page 22.
