Problem
The ingredients in process chemicals have
a strong influence on the longevity and
functionality (throughput) of the dispensing
systems.
Process chemicals can damage elastomers
and plastics in the machine and
accessories.
Hydrogen peroxide can release large
amounts of oxygen.
The following process chemicals can cause
large amounts of foam to build up:
- detergents and rinse aids containing
surfactants
Foam can occur:
- in the program block in which the process
chemical is dispensed
- in the following program block if it has
been spilt
- in the following program with rinse aid if it

to ensure the whole process is foam-free
or very low-foaming.
