10.1.2 DVC1000 Cylinder
-
For the DVC 1000 cylinder, we recommend general cleaning every 6 months to ensure proper
operation. Maintenance is also required should cylinder piston sliding problems or leaks be detected.
In that case, do as follows:
1. disassemble the bottom cover and the piston unit
2. Carefully clean the piston gasket
3. Lubricate the inside of the cylinder with silicone spray
If the problem persists, replace the gasket and re-lubricate the inside of the cylinder with silicone
spray.
WARNING
To lubricate the cylinder gasket, only use silicone lubricant spray and not silicone grease.

For perfect operation, you are recommended to replace the rubber shutter every 6 months.
10.2 Periodic maintenance
10.2.1 Daily
It is essential to adequately wash the milk tubes in order to remove bacteria left in the line and equipment
after each milking. The said bacteria can contaminate the milk, damage the equipment and cause
detachment of the clusters, resulting in incorrect reading of the milk flow.
After each milking session, wash the milking unit and each surface of the milking system machine in contact
with the milk, as follows:
1. Fasten the sheaths to the washing jets or put the milking unit in the washing tank
2. Put each iMilk401 panel into washing mode
3. Start rinsing and proceed with washing using temperature between 60°C ÷ 90°C (140°F ÷ 194°F) for
the main washing.
4. Before the next milking, sanitize surfaces in contact with the milk according to normal washing
instructions
5. After washing, set each Portable iMilk401 in milking mode again.
10.2.2 Weekly
Three times a week, wash with a solution of water + nitric or phosphonitric acid, in concentrations NOT
exceeding 3%, or according to the instructions of the product's manufacturer.
