THE LIQUID LEVEL SENSOR IS UNABLE TO DETECT FOAM;
THEREFORE, IT IS IMPORTANT THAT THE WASTE BOTTLE IS
EMPTIED AS SOON AS THE FOAM LEVEL HAS REACHED THE
MAXIMUM FILLING LEVEL INDICATED ON THE WASTE BOTTLE.
WASTE BOTTLE – FOAMING
WHEN USING WASH BUFFERS THAT SHOW A STRONG TENDENCY
OF FOAMING, EMPTY THE WASTE BOTTLE AS SOON AS THE
FOAM-LEVEL HAS REACHED THE MAXIMUM FILLING LEVEL
INDICATED ON THE WASTE BOTTLE. ADDITIONALLY, ADD A
COMMERCIALLY AVAILABLE ANTI-FOAMING AGENT (SUCH AS
SILICONE OIL) TO THE EMPTY WASTE BOTTLE TO REDUCE
IF FOAMING CONTINUES TO BE A PROBLEM, WE RECOMMEND
SWITCHING TO A LARGER WASTE BOTTLE (NOT PROVIDED WITH
THE HYDROFLEX PLUS) AND ADDITIONALLY INCREASE THE
CONCENTRATION OF ANTI-FOAMING AGENT IN THE WASTE
BOTTLE. TO HELP FACILITATE BREAKDOWN OF THE FOAM IN THE
WASTE BOTTLE, CAREFULLY SWIRL THE WASTE BOTTLE FROM
TIME-TO-TIME TO IMPROVE MIXING BETWEEN FOAM LAYER AND
REFILL ANTI-FOAMING AGENT AFTER EMPTYING WASTE BOTTLE.
FOR EXAMPLE, WHEN USING THE WACKER ANTI-FOAM EMULSION
SE47 (WACKER ARTICLE CODE 21640582), THE RECOMMENDED
CONCENTRATION IS 1ML OF ANTIFOAMING AGENT FOR 1 LITER
FOR ANTIFOAMING AGENTS FROM OTHER MANUFACTURERS, USE
CONCENTRATIONS AS RECOMMENDED BY CORRESPONDING
