General Information
■ The cleaning of beer lines with the new inte-
gral flow reversal feature incorporated into the
Perlick Beer Pump gives the line cleaner
numerous configurations for line cleaning.
Although the Perlick Beer Pump can be used
as an in-line pump for moving the solution from
the coupler to the faucet due to its capability of
working with negative lift, the following is the
recommended method for cleaning beer lines
with the Perlick Beer Pump with integral flow
reversal installed.
Cleaning Beer Lines using Smart Couplers
■ Disconnect Smart Coupler from beer connector
lines and soak Smart Couplers in cleaning
solution.
■ Couple the two beer connectors together using
Perlick’s double male adapter part # 186 with
beer washers.
■ Determine which sets of lines will be cleaned
together and rotate the Dispense/Reverse Flow
handle to the Reverse Flow position on the line
which fluid will be circulated from the faucet, to
the tap.
■ Remove the faucet from the line to which the
Beer Line Cleaner pump will be connected. Soak
faucets and brush clean before reinstalling.
■ Connect Beer Line Cleaner pump to the shank.
■ Follow standard beer line cleaning procedures.
Perlick recommends that the lines first be flushed
with clean warm water (Water temperature not
to exceed 100 degrees). Mix line-cleaning
solution per manufacturerís directions.
Circulate the solution thoroughly (Time for
circulation dependent on length of the system
and pump capabilities). Rinse the lines using
clean cold water (Ensure all line cleaning solution
has been removed from the lines to prevent
hazardous results).
■ Disconnect line-cleaning pump and reinstall beer
faucets.
■ Reconnect couplers to beer connector lines and
return Beer Pump Dispense/ Reverse Flow valve
to the dispense position.
■ Reconnect couplers to keg and open dispensing
head faucets until clear beer flows.
Winterizing Systems with Beer Pumps
■ When a beer system with beer pumps will be
shut down for an extended period, clean the
system thoroughly. After completing the rins-
ing step, prepare a mixture of 50% food grade
Glycerine and 50% water. Load the lines with
this mixture and make sure both ends of the
system are closed. Glycerine/water mixture
should remain in the lines for the duration of
the shutdown period.
