(7.0) chlorine solution.
B. Disconnect syrup containers and remove product from tubing.
C. Rinse the lines and fittings with clean, room temperature water to remove all traces of
residual product.
D. Fill lines with a low-sudsing, non-perfumed, and easily rinsed detergent solution. The solution
should be prepared in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations. Make sure the
lines are completely filled and allow to stand for at least ten (10) minutes.
E. Flush the detergent solution from the lines with clean water. Continue rinsing until testing with
phenolphthalein shows that the rinse water is free of residual detergent.
F. Fill the lines with a low pH (7.0) chlorine solution containing at least 100 PPM (100 mg/L)
available chlorine. Flow sanitizing solution through dispenser until output tests to full 100 PPM
concentration. Allow to stand for 15 minutes.
G. Nozzle/Diffuser Sanitizing
Use the following procedure to sanitize the nozzle housing during the dispenser sanitization
procedure.
1.
Cleaning Solution
- Prepare a low sudsing, non-perfumed, and easily rinsed detergent
solution and clean, potable water at a temperature of 90° to 110°F.
2.
Sanitizing Solution
- Prepare a chlorine solution (less than pH 7.0) containing 100 PPM
available chlorine with clean, potable water at a temperature of 90° to 110°F. Any
sanitizing solution may be used as long as it is prepared in accordance with the
manufacturer's written recommendations and safety guidelines, and provides 100 PPM
available chlorine.

Cleaning Procedure
CAUTION
BE CAREFUL NOT TO GET SANITIZING SOLUTION ON THE CIRCUIT BOARD.
a. Disconnect power, so the valve will not be inadvertently activated while cleaning.
b. Remove nozzle housing by twisting it counter-clockwise and pulling it down.
c. Wash the nozzle housing with the cleaning solution.
d. Immerse the nozzle housing in a bath of the sanitizing solution for 15 minutes.
e. While the parts are in the sanitizing solution, visually inspect around the nozzle
mounting area for syrup residue. Using a cloth or nozzle brush and sanitizing
solution, clean this area and the bottom of the nozzle body.
f.
Wipe off the valve shroud assembly and any other areas that may have been
splashed by syrup.
g. Wearing sanitary gloves, remove, drain, and air dry the nozzle housing.
h. Make certain the nozzle o-ring is in place around the nozzle mounting area on the
valve. If necessary, slide a new nozzle o-ring (PN 02-0228) onto the nozzle
mounting area. (Wear sanitary gloves while handling the o-ring.) If needed, apply 111
lubricant (or another FDA approved lubricant) to the o-ring.
i.
Wearing sanitary gloves, install the nozzle housing by inserting it into the nozzle body
and twisting it clockwise to lock it in place.
j.
Connect power and replace cover.
H. Reconnect syrup containers and ready Unit for operation.
WARNING
REMOVE SANITIZING SOLUTION FROM DISPENSER AS INSTRUCTED. RESIDUAL
SANITIZING SOLUTION LEFT IN SYSTEM COULD CREATE HEALTH HAZARD.
I.
Draw drinks to refill lines and flush the chlorine solution from the dispenser.
NOTE
Please note that a fresh water rinse cannot follow sanitization of equipment. Purge only with
the end use product.
This is an NSF requirement.
J. Taste the beverage to verify that there is no off taste.
