Determine the pump cleaning schedule on-site for materials
being processed and plant maintenance schedule. See "CIP
(Clean-In-Place) Features" on page 21.
To disassemble the fluid head, see "Fluid Head Disassembly" on
page 29. Remove and clean the cover gasket, pump seals, and
the screw nut assembly. Inspect and replace them as necessary.
NOTE: Always replace the screw nut O-rings, seal cap O-rings,
and seal carrier O-rings when reassembling the pump. If the area
behind these seals becomes soiled, contact SPX FLOW Applica-
tion Engineering for a specific cleaning and sanitizing procedure
validated to remove bacteria. If a chlorine solution (200 ppm
available chlorine) is used, it should leave no residual deposits
which would remain in the pump.
Acid cleaners have a much higher metal corrosion rate and pump
parts should remain in acid cleaning solutions no longer than nec-
essary. Any strong inorganic mineral-based acids that are harm-
ful to your hands would be harmful to pump parts. See "Care of
Component Materials" on page 10.
In applications where material can harden in the pump during
shutdown, a CIP cleaning, flush or disassembly of the fluid head
and manual cleaning is strongly recommended.
