Sanitizing The Syrup Systems - Taylor PH61 Operator's Manual

OPERATING PROCEDURES

Sanitizing the Syrup Systems

Two main objectives in your closing procedures must be
to discard all syrup at least once a week, and flush the
syrup lines at least twice a week.
This must be done on a regular basis to keep a buildup of
old syrup from clogging the lines, and to break the
bacteria chain which develops in the tanks and lines.
Note: Calibrating the syrup flow must be done once
every morning, especially after flushing the syrup lines.
Sanitizing the Syrup Tanks
1. Pull back on the collar of the quick disconnect fitting
of the air line. Allow the air pressure to dissipate from
the syrup tank. Disconnect the syrup line.
2. Remove the syrup tank from its compartment.
Remove the syrup tank lid by lifting up on the locking
lever, and discard the remaining syrup.
3. Rinse the syrup tank with clean, warm water. Prepare
1/2 gal. (1.9 L) of the recommended sanitizing
solution with warm water in the syrup tank.
4. Brush-clean the inside and outside of the tank.
5. Remove the syrup line fitting. Remove the dip tube
and O-ring from the syrup tank.
6. Thoroughly brush-clean the dip tube, syrup line
6
fitting, and O-ring using the sanitizing solution.
7. Reassemble the dip tube, O-ring, and syrup line
fitting.
8. Pour off all the sanitizing solution and place the tank
in an upside-down position on a clean, dry surface to
air-dry.
9. Repeat this procedure for all the syrup tanks.

Sanitizing the Syrup Lines
1. Prepare 1 gal. (3.8 L) of the recommended sanitizing
solution with warm water in the spare syrup tank.
2. Replace and lock the tank lid in position.
3. Place this tank in the syrup compartment. Connect
one of the air lines and the corresponding syrup line
to the syrup tank filled with sanitizing solution.
4. Place the power switch in the ON position. This will
activate the air compressor to supply pressure to the
syrup system.
5. Install the syrup sampler to the fitting of the syrup
line.
6. Press the corresponding flavor button for the syrup
line being sanitized.
7. Place an empty pail beneath the exit point of the
syrup line. Press the CAL keypad. A message will
appear on the LCD.
8. Press the WASH keypad. Flush the syrup line until
the solution runs clear. Press the CAL keypad to stop
the flow of sanitizing solution.
Note: This procedure will thoroughly clean the
syrup lines and prevent bacteria buildup.
9. Turn the syrup tank with the sanitizing solution
upside-down. Press the CAL keypad. Press the
WASH keypad to clear the syrup line of any
remaining sanitizer. When the sanitizer has been
flushed from the syrup lines, press the CAL keypad to
complete this step.
10. Repeat this procedure for all syrup lines.
11. Place the power switch in the OFF position.
