Overview
The 1-Hose Uni-Body 517 Sanitize / Rinse / LC Foam System is a three function cleaning system with a medium volume foamer. The venturi injector uses standard city water pressure (35 - 125 PSI) to draw two chemical concentrates into the water stream and create accurately diluted solutions. Compressed air is injected into the foaming solution to greatly increase volume and coverage ability, and the foam is projected through the hose and fan nozzle at distances up to 12 feet. Sanitizer solution is projected as a fan pattern spray at the lean ratios required for no-rinse sanitizing in food plants. Rinse through the same hose and nozzle, or use an optional more powerful rinse nozzle.
Safety & Operational Precautions
To Install (refer to diagram on next page)
Set the chemical dilution ratio by threading one of the color coded metering tips into each chemical check valve. See chemical labels for dilution ratio recommendation or consult your chemical supplier.
To Operate
Always make sure the discharge is closed or pointed in a safe direction before turning inlet valve on. Discharge can be shut off at any time during operation but should not be left off for long periods of time with the inlet valve on.
OPEN ONLY ONE INLET WATER BALL VALVE AT A TIME

PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE: When the unit will be out of service for extended periods, place chemical tube(s) in water and flush the chemical out of the unit to help prevent chemical from drying out and causing build-up. Periodically check and clean chemical strainer and replace if missing. |
