STEP 2: VACUUM SETTING FOR CLEAN MODE
1.
Release Vacuum on System to 13-14 PSI.
Adjust the black needle valve to vacuum tube while monitoring the Home Screen. 13-
14 PSI is ideal.
This PSI will allow the solvent to
“rain down” the evaporator column.
STEP 3: CLEAN MODE COLLECTION
1.
Prepare a collection vessel for the Crude Discharge pump to collect the tainted solvent.
This solvent is only tainted with the crude material that was left in the AutoVap system. You
can reuse this solvent.
2.
Completion of Stage 1 of the cleaning cycle will be determined by the operator.
Locate the crude collection sight glass and see how clean/clear the glass is.
Evaluate the clarity of the solvent that is discharged from the Crude Pump.
When the discharged solvent appears clear, you may proceed to the next step.
STEP 4: RECYCLE MODE
1.
On HMI Home Screen, Locate
“System Mode”
2.
Press the
“Extraction” button
System mode will now change to
“Recycle Mode”
3.
Wait for the
“Valve in Motion” light to go out.
4.
Start Feed Pump
Locate the Feed Pump status on the HMI Home Screen and Press Start.
Now the feed pump will spin in reverse draining and processing what is left in the
preheater. This may take a 3-6 minutes depending how how fast you run the feed pump.
5.
Adjust the
“speed” of the pump as necessary. Try to maintain a pump speed of 15-25 Hz
which equals around 30-60 psi.
6.
Now, manually discharge the residue pump and clean the system with solvent once again.
This will ensure most if the oil has been removed from the system.
Once all the fluid is manually discharged, it time to run distilled water through the AutoVap to
remove any plant sugars,
fats and contaminants that donʼt get removed with solvent.
STAGE 2: DISTILLED WATER CLEANING CYCLE
REPEAT THE SOLVENT CLEANING MODE USING DIST
ILLED WATER IN PLACE OF SOLVENT
The Distilled water is going to clean the residual plant sugars and gums that solvent (ethanol)
cannot clean. This step is EXTREMELY important and should never be skipped.
Failure to perform this step in the cleaning process can leave behind plant sugars and gums,
which, when cooled, can crystallize on your pump gears. The next time your pump starts, the
gears may be compromised.
