REFLEX™ is a new generation no-rinse one step acid sanitizer used in the dairy, food and beverage processing industry for CIP and COP pipeline, silo, tank and equipment cleaning and sanitizing processes.
Properties:
Form: Liquid
Odor: Pungent vinegar-like
Color: Clear
Foam: No
Spec. Gravity: 1.16-1.20
pH (10% solution): <1
Peracetic acid (% wt.): 6.0-6.4
Hydrogen Peroxide (% wt.): 22.5-23.7
Nitric Acid Conc.: 6-10%
Features & Benefits:
No phosphates
Regular use prevents the formation of milkstone and scale deposits
Excellent bactericidal and fungicidal activity against a wide range of microorganisms in cold or warm water.
Nitric acid becomes nitrate in wastewater
For land applied discharges, the nitric component reverts to nitrogen
Reduces CIP process times and reduces water usage
Directions:
For Food/Beverage, Wine and Dairy Processing Equipment, Tanks, Vats,Pails, Pipelines and Closed Systems:
Remove gross food particles and soil by a preflush or prescrape, and when necessary, a pre-soak treatment. Clean all surfaces with an appropriate cleaning product, followed by a potable water rinse prior to the application of this product. Sanitize CIP or COP equipment by immersion, circulation or coarse spray sanitizing techniques, as appropriate.
Dilution Instructions: Dilute 1.0-3.0 fl. oz of this product in 6 gallons of water (providing 95-286 ppm active peroxyacetic acid). Do not exceed 140ºF of the sanitizing solution. Expose equipment to the sanitizing solution for a minimum of 1 minute. Increased circulation times will improve microbiological and/or mineral scale removal results. Adequately drain solution from equipment before resuming operations. A water rinse is not necessary. For mechanical operations the prepared use solution may not be re-used for sanitizing, but may be recycled for other uses such as cleaning, flushing or bulk water pH control for other non-sanitizing purposes. Adjust sanitizer solution to achieve pH values in the preferred range of pH 2.5-4 if milkstone or mineralstone inhibition/removal is required.
The regular use of this product at the recommended pH ranges will prevent the formation of milkstone, beerstone, or mineralstone deposits on food contact surfaces.
