1. Apply thick foam over the surfaces to be cleaned.
Apply on dry surfaces. Apply from top to bottom
on vertical surfaces. Let the foam act for up to 30
minutes for the optimal effect.
2. Proceed with cleaning using the high pressure
lance. Use applicable accessories. Use high
pressure to dislodge large amounts of incrusted dirt
or grime. Use lower pressure and high water volume
in order to rapidly flush away loose dirt and rinse
surfaces.
3. Apply DES 3000 disinfectant once the surfaces are
perfectly clean.
Areas covered by amounts of loose dirt, such as
animal remains in slaughterhouses, can be removed
by using high water flow to flush away the dirt to
evacuation pits or drains.
Tank cleaning heads can be used to clean barrels,
vats, mixing tanks etc. Cleaning heads may be
hydraulically or electrically powered and give the
possibility for automatic cleaning without a constant
user.
