General Cleaning Instruction


Important!

The cleaning procedure should follow immediately after the work has been
brought to an end. The machine / the plant should not be left overnight without
being cleaned. Galvanized plants such as conveyors do not require daily
cleaning, please see the below cleaning instruction.

When the cleaning procedure / the disinfection has been completed, the
machine / the plant should be rinsed thoroughly with pure water, as remnants
of cleaning and disinfecting agents will corrode the machine / the plant.
The continuous maintenance in the form of daily cleaning should be carried out
by the operators or by trained cleaning personnel. Both parties should be familiar with this cleaning instruction.
If low pressure hosing / cleaning is stated, the water pressure should not exceed 16 bar. If high pressure cleaning is stated, a water pressure of up to 80
bars is acceptable. If a water pressure of more than 80 bars is applied, the
NOVADAN guarantee and liability for damages caused by this is discontinued.
During the cleaning process it is important to take care that water under no
circumstances penetrates into gears, motors and other electrical components.
These may be covered with plastic. The cover should, however, always be removed afterwards to prevent condensation.

!
1.1

Always wear protective clothing during the cleaning process (watertight clothes
and cleaning gloves), as the recommended cleaning agents and disinfectants
are all corrosive and irritating.

Cleaning of Stainless Steel Plants and Densitop Floors


The below cleaning procedure applies to stainless steel plants and Densitop floors.
1.

Cover electrical switches / installations that may be damaged by water with


plastic.

2.

Carry out a preliminary hosing of each machine / plant.


Use cold or hot water to remove loose dirt and meat remnants and to soften
sticking dirt etc.
Use hose or reduced pressure of the cleaning unit.
The entire machine / plant should be washed down.

3.

Gather and remove waste before soap is applied.


Not removed waste can cause splashes during the subsequent cleaning
procedure.

4.

Soap the machine / the plant thoroughly using foaming unit or cleaning unit
dosing injector.
Use a strongly alkaline cleaning agent 3 4 times a week and an acid cleaning
agent 1 2 times a week.
For information about the physical/chemical composition, the recommended
concentrations, the application range and any specific requirements of the
cleaning agents, please see the subsequent item "Cleaning Agents" and the enclosed NOVADAN product information of each product containing all the necessary specifications.

5.

For an optimum effect the process time of the soap should be at least 15 - 20
minutes.
Prior to the final hosing the soap should be rinsed off at ordinary water pressure
to avoid soap aerosols / dust.

6.

Use high / low pressure unit to remove dirt and meat remnants.
Apply as low a pressure as possible, as too high pressure will damage the
various parts of the machine / the plant.

7.

Check the cleaning quality.


If the cleaning of the machine / the plant is insufficient in some places (dirt and
meat remnants still present) an extra cleaning should be carried out using
brush and nylon scouring pads.

8.

When the cleaning has been completed, an effective disinfection should be


carried out to reduce the risk of bacteria growth resulting in poor production
hygiene.
Rinse the disinfectant off with cold water after a process time of 15 minutes.
The rinsing should be so thorough that no remnant of disinfectant remains on
the machine / the plant.

9.

The machine / the plant should be oiled with liquid paraffin daily, whereby the
life of the machine / the plant is increased and the cleaning facilitated.
Use paraffin pure oil for the oiling.
Apply liquid paraffin by means of concentrate sprayer. Do not use air sprayer,
as this will cause aerosols to be formed (oil dust).
Concerning specifications for liquid paraffin oil please see item 2, "Cleaning
Agents".

10.

Remove the cover from electrical switches / installations etc. It is important to


remove the cover immediately to prevent condensation from damaging them.
The cleaning procedure has now been completed.

1.2

Cleaning of galvanized plants (conveyor etc.)


The need for cleaning of chains and profiles depends directly on the production environment.
Clean sticking dirt from the profiles as required. Use cloth, brush and scraper and suited,
alkaline cleaning agent.
To be able to clean the chain it should be removed from the profile. It may be a good idea
to use a net basket and an appropriate alkaline cleaning agent.
When the cleaning process has been completed, the conveyor should be lubricated
cording to directions for the specific system.

Warning signs are not to be damaged during the cleaning process.

Disinfectants
Recommended cleaning agents

Alkaline cleaning agents


According to the cleaning instruction stainless steel plants are to be foamed. For this
purpose a strongly alkaline cleaning agent should be used and for periodic cleaning an acid
cleaning agent. Galvanized units such as conveyor should be cleaned periodically with an
alkaline cleaning agent.
Alkaline cleaning agents are characterized by a pH of more than 7. The more alkaline the
product is, the closer the pH will be to 14. The pH of a strongly alkaline cleaning agent will
be approximately 12-14.
The alkaline cleaning agent used for cleaning the machinery and the equipment should
meet the following requirements:
Application:

Alkaline cleaning agent approved for use within the food


industry for the cleaning of all surfaces that will stand alkaline
cleaning agents without EDTA.

Properties:

Good fat and protein dissolving properties.

Directions for use and


dosing:

Follow the instructions on the cleaning agent. Generally, all


surfaces that will later get into contact with meat and meat
products must subsequently be rinsed thoroughly with water.

Packaging:

Never pour cleaning agents into other cans or containers. Store


only in original containers.

Approval:

Use with caution on alkali-sensitive materials such as aluminium


or galvanized steel.
The cleaning agent must be approved for use within the food
industry.
Avoid contact with skin and eyes.

!
!

Wear suited personal protective clothing: gloves, goggles, apron


and boots.
Store out of reach of children and in tightly closed, original
container.

Precautions by spill and disposal


Small amounts of spill are rinsed away with water. Large amounts are absorbed with absorbing material and delivered to approved receiving station. Subsequently rinse with
plenty of water.

cleaning agent. Galvanized units such as conveyor should be cleaned periodically with an
alkaline cleaning agent.
Acid cleaning agents are characterized by a pH of less than 7. The more acid the product
is, the closer to pH will be to 0. The pH of a strongly acid cleaning agent will be approx.
1-2.
The acid cleaning agent used for cleaning the machinery and the equipment should meet
the following requirements.

Special Units
Specific cleaning procedures apply to specific types of machines. The machines stated
below belong to this category:

3.1

Cutting Belt
The cutting belt is equipped with a CIP cleaning device, which softens / rinses the inside of
the conveyor belt through nozzles.
Approximately 10 minutes before initiating the cleaning process, the cutting belt should,
therefore, be connected to hot water, min. 70C. The connection takes place from the
traction end of the belt. Open the water supply and let the cutting belt run for min. 10
minutes, thus rinsing off any remaining meat remnants on the inside of the belt.
Shut the water supply off when the cleaning process has been completed.

3.2

Sterilizers
The cleaning procedure for SMS equipment also applies to sterilizers with the following
exceptions:
Cleaning agents with acid should not be used. Sensors, heating elements etc. should not
be cleaned with the cleaning agents stated, however, they can be disinfected according to
the present standard.
Heating elements should be de-calcified periodically with acetic acid or citric acid in a
solution according to the specific declaration and instruction on the product.
Acetic acid or citric acid should not get into contact with the rest of the sterilizer and never
with plastic components such as the top, as these components will not stand the two acids
mentioned.
Use a cloth for applying acetic or citric acid to the heating element.
REMEMBER: Wear protective equipment such as gloves and suit!!
Rinse with plenty of water, when the disinfection has been completed. The process time
will appear from instruction on the specific product
