Maintenance
The pump hose on the sampler needs to be changed periodically otherwise
the only maintenance required on the ULTRASAMPLER is to clean the inside
and outside.
The intake cannula or injection needle may need to be replaced if damaged.
26.10.1
Cleaning the inside and outside of the
ULTRASAMPLER
Cleaning the outside of the ULTRASAMPLER
Wipe down the outside of the functional units of the ULTRASAMPLER
with a damp sponge without any added detergents.
The round magazines of the bottle drive can be cleaned in a water bath
under the following conditions:
Max. cleaning time: 5 minutes once a week
Max. cleaning temperature: 50 °C
Cleaning method: Water bath (circulated)
Cleaning the inside of the ULTRASAMPLER
The parts requiring cleaning in this case are the surfaces in the branch pipe
and in the flow level meter contacted by the milk, and this internal cleaning
routine is included in the collection vehicle cleaning process.
Parallel to this, the sampling line of the sampler is rinsed down in a special
ULTRASAMPLER cleaning cycle.
During this cycle, the sampler pumps an alkaline cleaning solution out of the
branch pipe into the sample bottle.
How to start the cleaning cycle (subject to installation):
1. Select menu item CIP in the MAK 3003 Tiger software
2. Activate special switch for collection vehicle cleaning
Attention:
The quality and width of the pump hose are affected by the sampler cleaning
process.
This gradually lowers the amount put into the sample bottles.
Ideally the pump hose should therefore be changed after each cleaning cycle
but, failing that, after no more than 10 days.
