Shock Treatment (Initial Treatment)

When beginning use of Solution 1 e Solution 2 at a plant, it is important to implement a shock protocol before backing off to maintenance treatments. A shock treatment should also be used whenever a plant has an increase in counts, a new “hot spot” or experiences a sudden decrease in product shelf life.

A shock treatment with Solution 1 and Solution 2 involves 3–5 consecutive applications.

Maintenance Treatment (Weekly)

Following a successful shock treatment, plants can begin to experiment with use frequencies while continuously conducting environmental monitoring in order to determine a proper/necessary Sterilex use protocol.

In general, Solution 1 e Solution 2 should be used at least 3X/week in RTE or more highly sensitive environments and at least 1X/week in other areas.

Environmental (Foaming)
Usage Protocol

  1. Refer to the SDS for proper safety protocols and recommended PPE.
  2. Foam all surfaces in the plant with a chlorinated caustic detergent or general purpose cleaner, followed with a water rinse.
  3. Prepare solution of Solution 1 e Solution 2 mixed at a 1:1:10 ratio (12.8–16 oz of each solution/gallon of water) for use in a high volume, rinsed tank foamer. Once mixed, the solution MUST be used within 8 hours.
  4. Generously foam all overheads, walls, equipment, floors and drains to ensure thorough coverage. Allow chemistry to soak in all crevices of treated surfaces. | Minimum contact time: 10 minutes
  5. Rinse all surfaces thoroughly with a potable water rinse.
  6. Apply a no-rinse food sanitizer to all food contact surfaces.
 

Notas de uso
A Sterilex recomenda o uso dos produtos em até 8 horas após a mistura. Se uma mistura precisar ser usada após 8 horas, use o kit de teste para garantir a concentração adequada do ingrediente ativo. Misture a quantidade de solução necessária para a aplicação específica.
