Cleaning* 1. Turn off and lock out any pumps and/or equipment connected to the strainer process line. 2. Ensure that all pressure has been relieved from the system the strainer is installed on. 3. Close any available blocking / isolation valves. 4. Disassemble the strainer by removing the end cap clamp and pulling the element out. If used, remove mesh overlay. If used, remove filter tube and discard (single use only). 5. Use a hose to spray the element off with water to remove loose debris. 6. Clean the element and mesh overlay (if applicable) using a clean-out-of-place (COP) parts washer or other automated system running at an adequate temperature, chemical concentration, and amount of time to remove all soil residue. If automated cleaning is not available, manually clean soil residue off the element using a scrub device, water source, chemical and gloves. 7. Rinse with appropriate water supply and inspect all parts for cleanliness and damage. 8. Reassemble the strainer as described in the assembly section. *These are recommended cleaning instructions only. Follow any plant sanitation standard operating procedure (SSOP) that your facility may have in place. A tri-clamp cap can be attached to the strainer body, which can then be cleaned-in-place (CIP) if desired during COP of the strainer element.
