Sanitizing the System
Before starting production, sanitize anything
that comes into contact with the product. This
should be done just before starting production
to help avoid any contaminants from getting
into the system. After sanitizing the system,
run lukewarm water through it to rinse it out.

Maintenance
Daily Maintenance Checks
Check the depositor daily for any signs of
wear. Some of the things that should be
checked daily are airlines, fittings, pins, and
various components like the product valve and
product pistons.
Figure 26: Daily Maintenance Checks
Common Wear Items
Items that are most common to wear out
should also be checked daily. The most
common items to wear out are the O-rings for
the product valve and for the product pistons.
These need to be checked daily for any signs
of damage or wear.
