Requirements for Detergents and Sanitizers
Detergents
Remember, improper detergents may damage equipment! Use of the correct detergent in your Power Soak system is critical to its washing performance. If you are having problems with cleaning results, please contact the factory.
Your new system requires a low-foaming, metal/aluminumsafe detergent that is safe for the hands. The detergent should have good grease cutting abilities but not have an excessively high pH level.
Sanitizers
The method of sanitizing used in your Power Soak system is a "chemical sanitizing" method. There are a number of products on the market that work well. Your chemical sales representative should assist you in selecting the proper sanitizer for your application.
Check with your cleaning chemical provider to determine detergent concentration, sanitizer "parts per million" (ppm) and sanitizer submersion times to meet local health codes.
Factory Assistance
If your chemical sales representative is having difficulty selecting a detergent or sanitizer, or if you are getting poor results with the chemicals your representative has recommended, please contact the factory at 800-444-9624.

Preparing the System
Filling the System
At the beginning of each day or shift, fill the sinks with water that is metered to approximately the correct operating temperatures:
Wash sink (115 F / 48 C)
Rinse sink (75 F / 24 C)
Sanitizer sink (75 F / 24 C)
All sinks should be filled to, but not above, the “waterline” marks.
Fill the wash sink (the sink with the water jets) with water that is approximately 115 F / 48 C. You can use the hot and cold taps on the faucet to adjust the water to the appropriate temperature. A good rule of thumb is that the water should be hot to the touch but not so hot that it is uncomfortable.
Rinse Water
If your method for rinsing wares is of the “submersion” type, fill the rinse sink
(middle sink) with water that is approximately room temperature, 75 F / 24 C. There is no need to fill the rinse sink if your location uses a sprayer for rinsing wares.
Sanitizer Water
Fill the sanitizer sink (the last sink) with water that is approximately room temperature, 75 F / 24 C.
Your Chemical Company Should Be Aware of the Following:
The detergent must be low foaming, metal/aluminum-safe and not excessively caustic. Most standard sanitizers are acceptable.
