Cleaning Concentrate 2080
for dampening water circulation systems
Use:
Whatever the reason for the contamination, dampening water systems can only be cleaned with great effort, unless the right cleaning agent is used. Excess ink, sludge and other components result in residues which can quickly soil any dampening system badly enough to impair its function.
Dosage:
Cleaning Concentrate 2080 is diluted with water at a ratio of 1 : 1, then added to the dampening fountain and simply pumped through the system for 5 to 7 hours. This way the circuit is cleaned quickly and thoroughly without a great deal of time and effort, ensuring that any impurities in the pipework are eliminated. Turbo and spray dampening units are to be closed.
The pH value in the circuit will be between 10 and 11. Before draining the used liquid cleanser, we recommend neutralizing to a value of approximately pH 7, which can be accomplished with the help of our Neutralising Agent 22 20 90.
Once the used cleaning concentrate is drained, the system must be flushed with clear water for as long as it takes to ensure that all residues are removed. We would recommend to adjust the pH value to pH 5 with the last rinse cycle as this will facilitate the preparation of the new fountain solution mix.

Note:
Cleaning Concentrate 2080 does not attack stainless steel or plastic pipes within the dampening water circuit but it is caustic for the skin.
Therefore, the usual safety precautions for working with concentrated active agents should be observed, e.g. safety goggles and gloves must be worn. Any parts of the skin which come in contact with the cleanser must be rinsed with plenty of water. If the product comes in contact with the eyes, immediatly flush with water and, if in doubt, consult an eye doctor.
