Directions
- Follow machine manufacturer's directions. Not intended for powder detergent receptacles. If available, use liquid detergent reservoir, connecting tubes, or metering pump.
- In general, use ½-1% solution in hot water wash cycle (1¼-2½ tbsp. per gallon, ¾-1¼ ounces per gallon or 5-10 ml per liter – most machines need 2½ ounces added at a typical 2 gallon wash cycle).
- For soak, circulate, or ultrasonic use, make a 1% solution in cold, warm or hot water. For difficult soils, raise water temperature and use more detergent.
- Wear protective gloves and eyewear when handling.
- Rinse thoroughly, preferably with running water.
- For critical cleaning, do final, or all rinsing, in distilled, deionized or purified water. For food contact surfaces, rinse with potable water. Use on a range of alkali resistant glass, ceramic, plastic, and metal surfaces.
Cleaning Validation Methods
Test a parameter of rinse water before and after rinsing the cleaned surface, or test the clean surface. No significant change in the parameter indicates no detectable detergent residue. Parameters measured include: pH, conductivity, UV, TOC, HPLC, sodium concentration, phosphorus concentration, anionic detergent concentration using inexpensive detergent water testing kits, surface tension, and surface analysis.
