•
On direct water hook-up units, water
pressure must not exceed 30 psi (2.1
kg/cm2 or 207 kPa). Higher water
pressures will cause poor perfor-
mance, excessive condensation, and
flooding of the Steam Generator. To
reduce water pressure, install a water
pressure regulator and set water pres-
sure to 20–30 psi (1.4–2.1 kg/cm2 or
138–207 kPa). Contact your equip-
ment supplier to purchase a Water
Pressure Regulator.
•
To ensure proper steaming character-
istics, some calcium/mineral deposits
must be present on the generator
surface. If, during cleaning, the surface
does become free of calcium/mineral
deposits, add plain tap water to the
surface and allow it to boil off. This
may have to be repeated several times
to ensure proper steaming characteris-
tics by creating a thin layer of deposits
on the surface.
•
Do not use a sanitizing solution or
abrasive materials. The use of these
may cause damage to the stainless
steel finish.
•
Chlorides or phosphates in clean-
ing agents (e.g. bleach, sanitizers,
degreasers or detergents) could cause
permanent damage to stainless steel
equipment. The damage is usually in
the form of discoloration, dulling of
metal surface finish, pits, voids, holes,
or cracks. This damage is permanent
and not covered by warranty.
•
The following tips are recommended
for maintenance of your stainless steel
equipment:
•
Always use soft, damp cloth for
cleaning, rinse with clear water
and wipe dry. When required,
always rub in direction of metal
polish lines.
•
Routine cleaning should be done
daily with soap, ammonia deter-
gent, and water.
•
Stains and spots should be
sponged using a vinegar solution.
•
Finger marks and smears should be
rubbed off using soap and water.
•
Hard water spots should be
removed using a vinegar solution.
