7.4. LOADING
NEUTRALISER
The acid agent used for the neutralising phase is introduced and distributed automatically using the
peristaltic pump P2 provided, to be connected to the corresponding neutralising agent bottle.
The amount of neutralising agent introduced is set according to an average value adapted to most cases.
The amounts distributed by the peristaltic pumps can be regulated via the SETUP mode, see paragraph
"SETUP MODE DESCRIPTION".
SMEG recommends use of the following neutralising acids:
Smeg Acidglass C, Smeg Acidglass C2
and
Smeg Acidglass P
.
Acidglass C, C2: Citric acid-based.
Acidglass P: Phosphoric acid base (to be used for greasy, oily and similar materials).
During first start-up or whenever the bottle runs empty, it is necessary to activate peristaltic pump loading
using programme 8.
Regularly check the level of products in the bottles/cans to avoid running programmes without
detergent or neutralising agent.
Together with the peristaltic pump, the following are supplied:
1. A stainless steel suction pipe, to suck in the detergent from the can.
2. A plastic, cylindrical support, for the correct placement of the suction pipe.
3. The flexible pipe for connecting the stainless steel suction pipe to the peristaltic pump.
IMPORTANT
It is very important that the label applied to the pump (P1, P2, P3) and the connection pipe
is consistent with the pump’s function and the type of detergent sucked in. A connection
error (e.g. if the functions of P1 and P2 are inverted) would compromise the efficacy of the
progress.
