KLEAN/pakTM Portable Mass Disinfection System
INSTRUCTIONS FOR SAFE OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
The KLEAN/pak is an industrial grade, portable mass disinfection system that is designed to provide disinfecting solution over a large area with an easy to use standard garden hose water supply. Using the KLEAN/pak, with appropriate disinfecting solutions, gives a
Since the KLEAN/pak is not an aerosol dispenser, the spray droplets are larger and won’t get carried away by the wind, resulting in more disinfecting solution making it to the items being disinfected. Ideal for indoor and outdoor disinfection of items such as outdoor furniture, gates and doorways, vehicles, shopping carts, and golf carts.

installed at your water source connection to protect against any concentrates entering your drinking water supply.
Dispensing disinfectants at uncertain concentrations will give questionable results. Changing
hose, nozzle, or adding a shuto󰀨 will cause additional back pressure which can prevent intake of concentrates, or cause unintentional back ow of water into the reservoir, articially diluting its contents resulting in ine󰀨ective disinfection.
Never add more than 50’ of 5/8” (15 m of 16 mm) hose between the metering head and the nozzle
Never install a shuto󰀨 between the KLEAN/pak and the nozzle. Use only the at fan nozzle supplied with the KLEAN/pak. Always turn the ow control knob to full open to ensure full inlet ow and accurate concentration
mix.
Do not install a shut o󰀨 valve between the Klean/pak and the fan nozzle. Do not use nozzles other than the fan nozzle provided. Other nozzles may not match the ow of the fan nozzle and may adversely a󰀨ect the concentrate ratio.
The air gap between the metering control and the reservoir is needed to equalize the reservoir
pressure and ensure a proper vacuum. Do not seal or restrict this air gap. Doing so may a󰀨ect
concentrate ratio adversely.

Pressurize the hose line. Turn the ow control valve fully on to start water owing through the KLEAN/pak. Grasp the wand with the
hose feeding upward from below the wand, directing spray away from people. Keep the wand above the hose to avoid contact with
disinfectant dribble. Always turn the control valve completely on or o󰀨.
Avoid directing disinfectant onto the faces of yourself and other personnel. Improper use of disinfectant could result in death or serious injury, including damage to the eyes. To reduce the chance of injury, you and other personnel must wear eye protection at all times.

10.0 CONCENTRATE RATIO
The KLEAN/pak concentrate ratio knob is adjustable from zero to 11 oz/gal (85.9 mL/L). Water velocity in the throat of a venturi creates vacuum which sucks uid from the reservoir into the water stream. The markings are calibrated using suction of water from the reservoir at an inlet pressure of 70 PSI (4.8 bar) to the metering head (Water = 1.00 centipoise viscosity, 20 deg C, 1.00 gram/ CC). Concentrate rating is volumetric, not by weight.
Actual concentrations vary when concentrate has a viscosity, temperature, or density, di󰀨erent from calibration conditions. Higher (thicker) viscosity results in weaker solutions. Higher temperatures result in increasing concentration. Higher densities result in
weaker solutions. Consult the SDS and TDS sheets from the disinfectant manufacturer.
Actual Concentrations vary when inlet pressure to the waterway di󰀨ers from rated pressure.
Increasing the water inlet pressure above 70 PSI (4.8 bar) causes more water to mix with a set disinfectant inow, resulting in LOWER concentration than the label markings.
Decreasing the water inlet pressure below 70 PSI (4.8 bar) causes less water to mix with a set disinfectant inow, resulting in HIGHER concentration than the label markings.

The user must verify that the concentrate’s performance is suitable for use in their application. Always follow the disinfectant manufacturer’s recommendations.
Test strips are available for the common types of disinfectants. Concentration of disinfectant sprayed from the nozzle can be checked by collecting a sample and using a test strip. Adjust knob setting as required.

12.0 SHUT DOWN AND CLEANOUT
SHUT DOWN
After each use, turn the concentrate ratio knob to the RINSE position. Use plain water to rinse o󰀨 the KLEAN/pak and any undesirable
disinfectant deposits nearby.
Leave the concentrate ratio knob in RINSE when nished to minimize concentrate evaporation.
Disconnect hoses and secure the reservoir, wand, and fan nozzle between uses.
DEBRIS
Debris entering the waterway or the reservoir may interfere with operations. The KLEAN/pak includes a debris screen on the waterway inlet. If the screen
becomes clogged with debris the device will ow less than intended. Remove debris by shutting o󰀨 the water supply and cleaning the screen.
Debris in the concentrate passageways can result in weak disinfectants. If
concentrate is weak:
1. Shutdown the water supply to the KLEAN/pak
2. Remove screw #1, spring #2, and concentrate ratio knob #3
3. Unscrew the lid and remove the metering head & pickup hose from the reservoir
4. Inspect reservoir for particulate contamination and clean as required
5. Clean out concentrate passageways
6. Rinse o󰀨 pickup hose, screw #1, spring #2, and concentrate ratio knob #3
7. Reassemble & resume operation
For years of service, periodically inspect your KLEAN/pak. Make sure the hose and fan nozzle are in place. Look for debris in the bottom of the reservoir
and ush if necessary.
