Sanitizing; Freeze Down And Operation - Stoelting IntelliTec M202 series Operator's Manual

3.3 SANITIZING

Sanitizing must be done after the machine is cleaned and
just before the hopper is fi lled with mix. Sanitizing the night
before is not effective. However, you should always clean
the machine and parts after each use.
THE UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF AGRI-
CULTURE AND THE FOOD AND DRUG ADMIN-
ISTRATION REQUIRE THAT ALL CLEANING AND
SANITIZING SOLUTIONS USED WITH FOOD
PROCESSING EQUIPMENT BE CERTIFIED FOR
THIS USE.
When sanitizing the machine, refer to local sanitary regu-
lations for applicable codes and recommended sanitizing
products and procedures. The frequency of sanitizing
must comply with local health regulations.
Mix sanitizer according to manufacturer's instructions to
provide a 100 parts per million strength solution. Mix sani-
tizer in quantities of no less than 2 gallons (7.5 liters) of
90° to 110°F (32° to 43°C) water. Allow sanitizer to contact
the surfaces to be sanitized for 5 minutes. Any sanitizer
must be used only in accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions.
In general, sanitizing may be conducted as follows:
A. Prepare Stera-Sheen Green Label Sanitizer
or equivalent according to manufacturer's
instructions to provide a 100ppm strength solution.
Mix the sanitizer in quantities of no less than 2
gallons of 90° to 110°F (32° to 43°C) water. Any
sanitizer must be used only in accordance with
the manufacturer's instructions.
B. Place the tapered end of the fl ow valve into the
