Preparation For Cleaning By Hand; Manual Cleaning - Interroll SH 1100 Installation And Operating Instructions Manual

46
Interroll Module belt conveyor SH 1100
Cleaning
The module is designed specifically for use in the food sector that does not require daily
intensive cleaning, such as the area behind packaging equipment where the food is protected by
packaging. Should food packaging leak, the conveyor can still be cleaned dry or with soft water.
For this purpose, use low-pressure water, e.g., with a water hose with water pressure, or by
splashing water over the conveyor, e.g., using a bucket.

Preparation for cleaning by hand

4 Switch off the power supply to the conveyor.
4 Switch off the main switch to de-energize all the drives.
4 Open terminal box or distribution box and disconnect cables if there is no switch. Ensure that
live components or cables are electrically insulated to prevent electrocution.
4 Attach a sign to the control cabinet that maintenance work is in progress.
4 Remove foreign materials from all accessible surfaces.
4 Do not use sharp-edged tools to clean the module.
4 Do not use a high-pressure cleaner for cleaning, particularly not for the roller conveyors.

Manual cleaning

The conveyor platform is not designed for cleaning with alkaline or acidic cleaning agents. In
particular, rollers and drive rollers should not be cleaned with cleaning agents, only dry or with
water.
NOTICE
Seal not tight due to excessive pressure
4 Do not direct the nozzle directly on the seals during cleaning.
4 Observe a maximum water pressure of 8 bar (116 psi).
4 Move the nozzle continuously and evenly over the entire module.
4 Ensure that the distance between the nozzle of the water hose and the conveyor is at least
100 cm.
NOTICE
Risk of damage to the conveyor due to improper cleaning
4 Never use an acidic cleaner together with a chlorinated cleaner since the resulting
dangerous chlorine gases can damage stainless steel and elastomers.
4 Avoid temperatures over 35 °C so that no proteins can be deposited on the surface.
4 Remove greases at lower temperatures and with suitable cleaners.
4 Avoid water pressures over 8 bar so that no aerosols are created and to prevent damages.
4 Maintain a distance of 100 cm between the nozzle and the surface to be cleaned.
4 Do not direct the nozzle directly on the seals during cleaning, particularly not in the area of
the drum motor axle or drive rollers.
