Page 9: Installation
Inlet Connections The standard inlet connection for the Alfa Laval GJ BB is a 3/8” NPT female or 3/8” BSP female. It is recommended that the mating male thread be wrapped with PTFE pipe joint tape prior to installation. This will minimize any chance of leakage and will make subsequent removal much easier. - Page 10 Alfa Laval GJ BB / plumbing system. If a PD pump is used, the Alfa Laval GJ BB should be sized to, first, match the flow capability of the pump and, second, not exceed the pump's maximum operating pressure (taking the pressure rating of the plumbing system into account, also).

Page 15: Cleaning Solution Leakage
Insufficient pressure may also result from line losses when the machine is far from the pump. If this is the case, the line size must be increased accordingly for long runs. Although the Alfa Laval Gamajet will rotate at low flow rates, effective cleaning may require considerably more flow. -
Page 16: Recommended Cleaning
5 Operation The Tank Cleaning machine is designed for cleaning in place (CIP). CIP = Cleaning In Place. Study the instructions carefully and pay special attention to the warnings! NaOH = Caustic Soda. HNO3 = Nitric acid. 5.5 Recommended Cleaning Step 1 Caustic danger! Always handle lye and acid with great care. -
Page 17: Maintenance

Page 18: General Dismantling Setup
The Alfa Laval Gamajet should be washed out with clean water after each use to remove any foreign material or soft substances left in the machine that may harden during storage and cause the Alfa Laval Gamajet to seize or lock up. A clean water rinse through the Alfa Laval Gamajet will also wash out any residues of chemical cleaners that could adversely affect the seals and O-rings during prolonged contact in storage. -

Also, examine the main internal ring gear for bent or sharp teeth. If any damage is found, contact Alfa Laval Gamajet Equipment immediately. During reassembly, Alfa Laval Gamajet Equipment recommends the gearhead be lightly repacked using food grade grease. Please contact Alfa Laval Gamajet Equipment for a recommendation on the grease. - Page 21 Maintenance Read the instructions carefully. The items refer to the parts list and service kits section. Drawings 2, 11 Gearhead Lower Bearing Housing and Output Shaft Check the Output Shaft (5) for signs of scoring or wear, especially in the area of contact with the Output Shaft Seal (17) and Lower Bearing (8).

Page 22: Reassembly
All parts must be cleaned thoroughly before reassembling. Any deposits remaining on the parts can cause difficult disassembly the next time the Alfa Laval Gamajet needs to be serviced. Also, it may cause misalignment of parts and the potential for premature failure. - Page 23 7 Technical Data Read the instructions carefully. The items refer to the parts list and service kits section. Drawing 15 Tee Housing Slide the Tee Housing Bevel Gear (28) over the end of the Stem (3; drawing 13).
