Application Procedure: Initial Solution Makeup Ensure the equipment is clean and the nozzles are properly aligned. Fill the tank to about 80% of its capacity with clean water. Add the required amount of Okemclean. Mix and heat to operating temperature. Operation Spray: Use Okemclean in spray washers at 2 – 10% by volume, 80 – 180 °F (27 – 82 °C), spray pressure of 10 – 25 psi (0.7 – 1.7 bars) and 1 – 3 minutes. Exact concentration, temperature, pressure and exposure time depend on soils, extent of soil build-up in solution and conveyor line speed. Agitated Immersion: Use Okemclean in agitated immersion tanks at 5 – 10% by volume, 130 – 180 °F (54 – 82 °C) and 2 – 10 minutes. Exact concentration, temperature and immersion time depend on degree of agitation, soils and extent of soil build-up in solution. Solution Measurement: The concentration is measured using Gardotest Procedure 92 with a 25 ml sample. The conversion factor from free alkalinity to percent by volume is 1.45. Bath life can be estimated using, Gardotest Procedure 123 with a 10 ml sample and Gardotest Solution 57. Solution Replenishment: The solution can be replenished based on the percent by volume titration from Gardotest Procedure 92. Alternatively, the solution can be replenished directly by the Free Alkalinity (T) from Gardotest Procedure 92. To increase the Free Alkalinity (T) by 1.0 ml, add 1.45 gallon of Okemclean per 100 gal (14.5 liters per 1000 liters). Equipment: The Chemetall Electrodeless Conductivity/Concentration Control System and Chemical Metering Pump can be used to monitor and automatically maintain the concentration of this product using conductivity.
