5. Operation
9
Read the instructions carefully and pay special attention to the warnings! Always check the tank cleaning machine before
operation.
5.1
Operation/Control
Step 1
Always read the technical data thoroughly. See chapter 7 Technical Data
CAUTION
Alfa Laval cannot be held responsible for incorrect operation/control.
Step 2
Never touch the tank cleaning machine or the pipelines when pumping hot liquids.
Step 3
Initial Startup
When using a pressure washer to feed the unit, Alfa Laval Tank Equipment Inc. strongly recommends running the pressure
washer at the beginning of each use, without the Alfa Laval GJ 7 attached, for a period of time of about one minute. Alfa Laval
Tank Equipment has noted, through our testing with pressure washers, a high level of dirt in the initial wash fluid. This
procedure will lessen the buildup of debris inside the Alfa Laval GJ 7 and potential for premature wear of components.
Every Alfa Laval GJ 7 that ships is accompanied by a Birth Certificate. This document indicates how the machine performed in
our testing tank before it shipped based on the operating conditions supplied to Alfa Laval Tank Equipment Inc. To ensure the
longest possible life of the Alfa Laval GJ 7, please verify the operating conditions and, most importantly, the machines cycle
time. The cycle time is determined by picking a fixed point inside of a vessel (i.e. bung hole of a wine barrel) as a referen ce,
and timing how long it takes the same nozzle to pass back over that fixed point in the vessel. (This, naturally, will not be the
exact same spot because the spray pattern is indexing.) This timed value in seconds corresponds directly to the full cycle time
in minutes.
