Design Considerations (Continued)

Clean-In-Place (CIP)

The Water Saver requires periodic cleaning of the cylinders. CIP equipment supplied with the Water Saver includes a portable

cleaning solution tank, submersible pump, and interconnecting flexible tubing. Water Saver CIP plumbing connections are

integral to the unit. CIP pump discharge is connected to the Water Saver’s CIP inlet. CIP outlet returns to the solution tank. A

sanitary sewer drain will be used during the CIP process. The pump comes equipped with standard 120V male plug. The Water

Saver has a GFCI utility outlet for this purpose. Refer to Figure 9 for CIP layout.

Figure 9: CIP Equipment

Operational Chemical Feed

The Water Saver may require a chemical feed addition as part of the operating program to maintain performance. A small

chemical feed pump and 5-gallon pail of chemistry is supplied when chemical feed addition is necessary (chemistry is

dependent on makeup water quality and decided by EVAPCO). The pump is powered by the Water Saver.
