Surface quality:
The metallic surfaces that come into contact with food products
n
are electropolished with a roughness value (Ra) of
max. 0.8 μm.
Make sure that the surfaces that come into contact with food
n
products are not scratched or damaged.
The side of the diaphragm that comes into contact with food
n
products may not be scratched or damaged.
Do not exceed the chloride content of the batching water, see and ,
because the steel parts can then become unhygienic due to corro‐
sion.
The smallest cross-section of the dosing head with its nominal
width is derived from the cross-section of the ball check valve.
