pH Parameters
- pH Range during Operation at 25°C Max: 1.0-11.0
- pH Range during CIP Operation at 50°C Max: 2.0-11.0
Chemical Limits
- Peroxide:
- Free Peroxide in Product During Operation: <3 ppm
- Peroxide as a sanitizer at 25°C Max, pH 6-7, 10 minutes recirculation: 0.1%
- Chlorine:
- Free Chlorine During Operation: 0 Norm ppm (<0.1 Max ppm)
- Chlorine During CIP at pH 10.8-11.0 and 50°C: 150 Norm ppm (180 Max ppm)
- Note: Maximum chlorine exposure for all elements is 30 minutes per day at pH and temperature conditions listed above.
