4.4.2 Washing requirements for sensor proper cleaning
Topic Requirements
Daily washing routine - After every milking session: run the washing
procedure using detergent during recirculation time
with hot water
- At least 3 times per week: run the washing
procedure using acid during recirculation time with
hot water
Washing phases Ensure at least the following phases every time you
wash the parlour:
- Initial rinse with warm water
- Recirculation with hot water and chemicals
- Final rinse
- Drying phase
Water
Use always clean and good quality water
With MMC Sensor, dimension the wash trough in
order to ensure at least 7 litres (0.24 ft
meter
Chemicals Acid,
- Use only chemicals (acid detergent or disinfectant)
Detergent and
that are suitable to wash milking parlour
Disinfectant
- Always use a suitable concentration of chemicals as
indicated on the label of the chemical container.
Temperature Always use a suitable temperature for the chemicals
as indicated on the label of the chemical container.
Vacuum during During the washing cycles there must be a minimum
washing vacuum of 20kPa (5.9 ''Hg) to ensure that the sensor
empties during and at end of washing
4.4.3 Interruption of washing
To stop the washing stage, you can:
- Hold down the button for 3 seconds to go back to the stand-by stage
- Send the STOP command through the iO-B or iController panel
4.4.4 Wash feedback
When the washing phase finish, the iMilkNano gives a feedback by turning LEDs ON and OFF continuously
until remaining in stand-by mode in order to let the user know if the wash procedure has been performed or
not. If the wash alarm parameter is set to OFF, the LEDs will always be of green light to give a feedback that
the wash has been performed regardless to the results. If the wash alarm parameter is set to ON, the LEDs
will be green when the wash result is good while the light will be red when the result is not good with regards
to the wash parameter set in the panel, with non-compliant washing the following alarms appear:

Caution
It is highly recommended to use an automatic
washing system (for example, InterPuls Top
Wash) and to inject air during washing (for
example, TurboWash 4000 and 4000P) to
increase washing fluid turbulence
Always run a rinse phase between a recirculation
with hot water and detergent and a recirculation
with hot water and acid.
It is recommended to dry the system as final
stage of washing
- Always run a rinse phase between an
alkaline wash and an acid wash (especially with
peracetic acid) because the mix of the two
chemicals can damage seriously plastic
components.
With MMC Sensor, ensure that the quantity of
water is sufficient to complete at least 10 Filling
phases during recirculation to properly clean the
) per milk
device
- Always check the intended use of the chemical
- Do not exceed the concentration indicated on
the label of the chemical container otherwise you
can cause damages to the sensor.
Do not use nitric acid
- Do not exceed the temperature indicated on the
label of the chemical container otherwise you can
cause damages to the sensor.
- Always do not exceed 90°C (194°F)
