Directions

MANUAL CLEANING OF BULK TANKS

  1. Immediately after the tank has been emptied of milk, rinse all surfaces with tepid 90°-120°F water.
  2. Remove all detachable equipment and make a solution of Manosol Bulk Tank Cleaner, at the rate of 1 ounce per the required gallons of hot (155°-170°F) water. See hardness table for recommended dilution. Brush the interior, especially the bottom of the cover, and all equipment thoroughly.
  3. After cleaning, rinse thoroughly with water at 120°F and allow to drain.
  4. Acid rinse with a solution of either Acid Rinse at a rate of 1 ounce per 5 gallons of warm (100°F) water, or Sterosol Milkstone Remover and Acid Rinse at a rate of 1 ounce per 6 gallons of warm (100°F) water to prevent milkstone buildup and water spotting. Twice each week, instead of acid rinsing, rinse with a solution of Sterosol Milkstone Remover and Acid Rinse at a rate of 1 ounce per 2 gallons of warm (100°F) water for 20 to 30 minutes for the control of milkstone in the bulk tank. Drain thoroughly.
  5. Before reuse, sanitize with a solution of either Steramine® at a rate of 1 ounce per 4 gallons of water (200 ppm) or Hypo-Chlor Formula 6.40 at a rate of 1 ounce per 2 gallons of water (200 ppm) at a temperature of 145°F, or follow local health recommendations. A minimum of a 2 minute contact time is required. Drain the used solution from the equipment and air dry. DO NOT RINSE.

  1. Immediately following use, pre-rinse with tepid water.
  2. Begin cleaning using either Manosol Bulk Tank Cleaner or Heavy Duty Dairy Utensil Cleaner according to their label directions at a temperature as warm as the hands can stand. Brush all surfaces. Wear rubber gloves if solution is irritating to hands.
