Cleaning and maintenance instructions for stainless steel
Material Description: Stainless steel is extremely durable, and maintenance is simple and inexpensive. Proper care, particularly
under corrosive conditions, is essential. Always start with the simplest solution and work your way toward the more complicated.
Routine cleaning: Daily or as often as needed use a solution of warm water and soap, detergent, or ammonia. Apply the cleaning
solution per the manufacturer’s instructions and always use a soft cloth or sponge to avoid damaging the finish.
Stubborn Stains: To remove stains from stainless steel use a stainless steel cleaner and polish such as Ball® stainless steel
cleaner or a soft abrasive. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions and apply in the same direction as the polish lines.
NOTICE! Never use ordinary steel wool or steel brushes on stainless steel. Always use stainless steel wool
or stainless steel brushes.
Special Situations for Material
Fingerprints and Smears: To remove fingerprints or smears use a high quality stainless steel cleaner and polish in accordance
with the manufacturer’s instructions. Many of these products leave a protective coating that helps prevent future smears and
fingerprints.
Grease and Oil : To remove grease and oil use a quality commercial detergent or caustic cleaner. Apply in accordance to the
manufacturer’s instructions and in the direction of the polish lines.
Precautions: Avoid prolonged contact with chlorides (bleaches, salts), bromides (sanitizing agents), thiocyanates (pesticides,
photography chemicals, and some foods), and iodides on stainless steel equipment, especially if acid conditions exist.
NOTICE! Do not permit salty solutions to evaporate and dry on stainless steel.
The appearance of rust streaks on stainless steel leads to the belief that the stainless steel is rusting. Look for the actual source
of the rust in some iron or steel particles which may be touching, but not actually a part of the stainless steel structure.
NOTICE! Strongly acidic or caustic cleaners may attack the steel, causing a reddish film to appear. The use
of these cleaners should be avoided.
Brand Names: Use of brand names is intended only to indicate a type of cleaner. This does not constitute an endorsement, nor
does the omission of any brand name cleaner imply its inadequacy. Many products named are regional in distribution, and can be
found in local supermarkets, department and hardware stores, or through your cleaning service. It is emphasized that all products
should be used in strict accordance with package instructions.
This valve delivers a measured amount of soap with each upward stroke. The soap
dispenser has been standard on washfountains since 1983 and is not well-suited for
very thick lotion soaps.
Qty
NOTICE! Lotion soap will clog liquid soap valves. Use only lotion soap
Reducer plugs are available for use with fine granulated
soap to reduce the flow.
Valves can be changed from powdered to liquid by plugging the innermost, or “bearing” hole with rubber plug,
part number 125-001AK. To change from liquid to powdered, the plug must be removed. If none is present, it
will be necessary to drill out the bearing hole with a 1/2" or 5/8" drill. The plastic container configuration forms
a natural template for locating the bearing hole.

Soap Maintenance Tips
Soap Recommendations
Quality soap dispensers require good quality soap and periodic maintenance to properly operate. Bradley soap dispensers will
provide dependable, consistent operation over the long term when soap with reasonable viscosity and pH levels are used and
when a minimal amount of periodic maintenance is performed on the valves.
Soap thickness is determined by a measurement called viscosity. Soap viscosity should be between 100 cps (centerpoise) and
2500 cps for all Bradley soap dispensers. Thinner soaps are perceived by the users as being “watered down” so users tend to
take more than they need, resulting in waste. Thick soaps flow slower and inhibit the “flushing” action of the valves, which
allows the soap to congeal in the valve and cause clogs.
The pH (acid) level of the soap should be in the range of 6.5 to 8.5. More acidic soaps (pH levels lower than 6.5) will corrode
metal parts (even stainless steel!!) and degrade rubber and plastic components. They will also cause skin irritation. Most
inexpensive soaps (typically the pink lotion type) fall into this acidic category and will eventually cause valve failure and
metal corrosion. Base soaps (pH levels higher than 8.5) will cause swelling or degradation of rubber and plastic parts and skin
irritation.
Generally, any quality soap meeting the viscosity and pH guidelines above will work well with Bradley soap dispensers. PCMX
or Isapropanol based antibacterial soaps (within viscosity and pH limits) will also work with Bradley dispensers. Soaps satisfying
these basic guidelines will provide consistent flow and reduce clogs.
Most soap dispenser problems are caused by soap that is too thick or corrosive, or by a lack of maintenance. Many soaps come
in concentrate form which must be diluted with water. Often, the soap is improperly diluted or used straight out of the bottle, which
causes clogging and valve failure. If proper soap is being used, valves that have never been cleaned are usually the source of
dispensing problems. Bradley has entered into an agreement with Champion Brand Products to provide additional customer
service for purchasers of our dispensers regarding soap issues. They are very helpful and can get to the bottom of almost any
soap dispenser related problem. They also sell an excellent “Bradley approved” soap. Please see
for details about soap valve cleaning or how to contact Champion. With proper maintenance and soap, Bradley dispensers will
provide long term, trouble free operation.
Soap Instruction Sheet 215-1286
Soap Dispenser Maintenance Instructions
Bradley soap dispensers will provide dependable, consistent operation over the long term when the proper soap is used and when
a minimal amount of periodic maintenance is performed on the valves. Valves must be maintained (cleaned) to function properly.
To ensure proper operation of your soap dispenser, follow these instructions:
• Once per month, unscrew valve from reservoir and soak it for 30 minutes in hot water.
• Push valve at least 20 times while it is soaking.
• Flush soap reservoir with hot water while valve is soaking.
In cases of extreme clogging, the valve should be disassembled and the parts should be soaked in hot water or cleaning solution
to restore proper functioning. Soap dispensers that will not be used for extended periods of time (schools during summer break,
etc.) should be drained, cleaned and left empty until put back into service. Soap left on the outside of dispensers can cause
discoloration and corrosion of the reservoir (even on stainless steel units). All soap should be wiped or scrubbed off daily, then the
outside of the dispenser should be rinsed with clear water and dried with a soft cloth.
Foreign matter has reduced
the size of the sprayhead slots,
causing greater pressure at the
open slots.
Strainer portion of the stopstrainer-check valve is plugged.
Clean the sprayhead:
1. Disassemble the sprayhead and dislodge any dirt, lime buildup and foreign debris with a wire brush.
2. Sprayheads with rubber grommet spray rings may be cleaned
by rubbing a coin over the grommet.
3. Throttle down the volume control (water spray should strike
the bowl without splashing outside of the bowl).
Remove and clean the strainer screen from the stop-strainer-check
valve.
The sprayhead shown above includes a perforated neoprene spray ring grommet that is self-cleaning. The
water pressure flexes the spray holes which slows accumulation of foreign matter and tends to “break loose”
any such deposits that may have accumulated.
