• What is the max. allowable temperature of the cleaning solution used for CIP cleaning if the tanks are insulated with polyurethane foam (PU)?
• If a tank is insulated with polyurethane foam, do not use cleaning solutions at temperatures above 85 °C during CIP cleaning. The temperature can otherwise rise up to 120 °C for a short amount of time (few minutes). Prolonged exposure to high temperatures can lead to insulation material inflation and tank deformation. Prolonged use of a cleaning solution at temperatures up to 85 °C does not damage the insulation material.
