SANITIZATION AND MAINTENANCE (CASTLM8I3A)
SANITIZATION
1) Perform a first rinse with water at a maximum
temperature of 40 °C.
2) Distribute an alkaline detergent at a maximum
temperature of 100 °C and leave it to act for
about 10 minutes, respecting the supplier's
concentration specifications.
3) Rinse with water at a maximum temperature of 100 °C: direct a low pressure jet toward the
components, at an angle of approximately 45° and a distance of at least 300 mm to avoid damaging
the seals; pay particular attention to the points indicated in the figure.
4) To remove any remaining particles of dirt, use soft brushes or plastic scrapers; do not use abrasive
components to avoid damaging the components and altering surface roughness.
MAINTENANCE
Periodically check the seals and verify that they are not damaged: if there are any cracks, replace
them with genuine spare parts.
Periodically check the instrument body, cable glands and cables: if any damage is found, replace
the affected part.
Observe the instructions in the manual regarding the installation and positioning.
During all maintenance operations, make sure that the bearing surface is clean and that the
surrounding area has been sanitized to avoid introducing any particles of dirt.
To ensure optimum component washability, it is essential that the surface of the stainless steel
parts is smooth and free from any scoring or scratches: these defects foster bacterial proliferation
and require replacing the part.
