Cleaning & Sanitizing

Cleaning & Sanitizing External Surface Only

1. Cleaning: Wipe down or pressure wash external parts with mild stainless steel cleaner.

2. Sanitizing: Use sanitizers designed for stainless steel and plastic surfaces.

Cleaning & Sanitizing both Internally & Externally

1. Submersion (best method): Submerge entire assembly into a COP (Clean Out of 

Place) vat for a standard parts cleaning proceedure. The openings in the top and bottom 

of dispenser allow entire assembly to circulate and sanitize. (Use mild cleaning solutions 

safe for EPDM and stainless steel at less than 125

o

F to protect suction tube. Standard 

COP filler parts cleaning proceedure will apply.)

 

 

2. Pressure wash: If no COP tank is available the unit can be cleaned 

 

 

using a standard pressure washer (1500 psi or less). The openings in the 

 

 

top and bottom will allow access to internal parts.

 

 

3. Apply spray lube to working parts in the lower assembly. 

Chemical Path Cleaning & Sanitizing

1. Rinse old solution from tubing and nozzle with clear water.

2. Fill sanitizer reservoir with hand sanitizer solution and pump

solution through. Suction tubing should be changed yearly or 

when tubing shows signs of chemical attack. Tubing can 

become stiff due to leeching of plasticizers from the tubing,

but this does not affect the function of the unit. Other tubing 

can be substituted that more closely matches the chemistry 

being used.

Nozzle assembly 

(includes check valve)

To Clean Debris from Nozzle & Check Valve

1. Use the end of the tubing to unscrew the check

valve from the nozzle. 

2. To remove debris from check ball, blow compressed

air in this direction ONLY (with no more than 5psi)

3. Check nozzle for debris before reinstalling check 

valve. To reassemble, use the end of the tubing to 

carefully screw the check valve back into the nozzle, 

until the red poppit is showing slightly past the nozzle.

4. If the suction check valve needs to be replaced, be 

sure to wrap a small amount of Teflon tape around the

threads before installation, taking care not to allow any 

tape into the fluid stream.  

Dispenser System Rebuild Kit (includes all wetted 

parts and spare O-ring) available. Contact your
