CLEANING & SANITIZING
CLEANING & SANITIZING THE SYSTEM
The dispenser must be cleaned and sanitized after installation and as required by state and local health
departments, or every three months minimum. The state and local health codes may require more fre-
quent and extensive sanitizing procedures.
1. Cleaning and Sanitizing Equipment and Supplies
A. Stera–Sheen Green Label (or equivalent) prepared to ensure 100ppm of available chlorine (one 1
ounce packet in one gallon (3.8 l) of water = 100ppm). Solution temperature should be between
80
o
F and 100
o
F (26.7
o
C and 37.8
o
C).
NOTE: Use potable water at the temperatures listed above. Water above this range will break
down the chlorine count and minimize sanitation.
B. One clean 5 gallon (19 l) bucket
C. One clean 1 gallon (3.8 l) bucket
D. Clean, nonabrasive towels/rags
E. A small brush with nylon bristles
F. Three valve fittings cut from three empty B–I–B bags.
2. Flushing the Concentrate Lines and Valves
A. Cleaning and sanitizing is not required for the potable water circuits. Potable water lines should
remain connected and operational during the cleaning and sanitizing of the juice circuits.
B. Fill the 5 gallon (19 l) bucket with clean, extremely hot tap water, approximately 140
o
F (60
o
C).
C. Clean the three valve fittings that were cut from the B–I–B bags by rinsing them under hot tap
water.
D. Connect the bag valve to the bag connector coming from the dispenser and submerse the parts
in the bucket of hot water.
E. Press and hold the dispense button until the concentrate has been fully purged from the product
lines and valves.
NOTE: Do not flush more than three valves simultaneously.
F. Once the concentrate is purged, pulse each valve for 15 seconds on then release the button.
Repeat this pulsing for 15 cycles for each circuit being cleaned. Once the 15 cycles have been
completed, allow each valve to dispense for 3 continuous minutes.
G. Remove the nozzle and static mixer from the dispenser and rinse them under hot tap water to
remove any excess concentrate. Repeat for each circuit.
H. Replace the nozzles and static mixers into their proper location.
I. Discard any remaining hot water left in the bucket.
3. Cleaning and Sanitizing the Concentrate lines and Valves
A. Prepare 5 gallons (19 l) of Stera–Sheen Green Label cleaning and sanitizing solution (or equiva-
lent) by mixing one 1 ounce packet per 1 gallon (3.8 l) of potable water. This will provide enough
sanitizing solution to clean and sanitize all 6 concentrate circuits for most installations. Installa-
tions that have 50 or more feet (not recommended) of concentrate line may require more sanitiz-
ing solution.
NOTE: Use potable water between 80
o
F and 100
o
F (26.7
o
C and 37.8
o
C). Water above this range
will break down the chlorine count and minimize sanitation.
B. Submerse the bag connector and bag valve assembly into the bucket of sanitizing solution.
C. Press and hold the dispense button until sanitizing solution is dispensed through the mixing valve
nozzle.
D. Pulse each valve for 15 seconds on then release the button. Repeat this pulsing for 15 cycles for
each circuit being sanitized. Once the 15 cycles have been completed, allow the sanitizing solu-
tion to stand in the product lines and valves for 30 minutes.
