Product Description
Solujet, case of 4 gallons
Solujet is a nonionic, low foaming phosphate free liquid cleaner for use in lab-ware washers, manual and ultrasonic cleaning. This is a corrosion inhibited formula recommended for glassware, metals, plastic, ceramic, porcelain, rubber and fiberglass. Solujet is free rinsing for reliable results with no interfering residues. Solujet passes inhibitory residue tests. Dilute 1:200. pH 11.5
Alconox products require 2-5 day handling time.
Used to clean: Pharmaceutical process equipment, water testing labware, phosphate sensitive
lab equipment cleaning, hospital instruments, optical components, pharmaceutical
apparatus, cosmetics manufacturing equipment, tissue culture ware, plate glass, metal castings,
forgings and stampings, industrial parts, animal cages, electronic components, tanks
and reactors. USDA authorized category A1 for use in food contact surface cleaning. FDA
certified.
Used to remove: Soil, radioisotopes, radioactivity, organics, grit, grime, slime, grease, tars,
resins, fats, oils, blood, tissue, particulates, inorganic residues, chemicals and solvents.
Surfaces cleaned: Recommended for glass, stainless steel, PTFE, ceramic, cement and
alkali resistant plastics and metals such as stainless steel. Solujet is inhibited for Aluminum.
Corrosion testing is advisable. Clean-in place, laboratory warewashers, dishwashers,
washer-sterilizers, washer-sanitizers, cart washers, spray washers, electrocleaning,
ultrasonic cleaners, and manual cleaning if proper skin and eye protection is used.
Directions: Follow machine manufacturers directions. Not intended for powder detergent
receptacles. If available, use liquid detergent reservoir, connecting tubes or metering pump.
In general, use 1/2 - 1% solution in hot water wash cycle (1 1/4 - 2 1/2 Tbsp. per gal., 3/4 -
1 1/4 oz. per gal. or 5-10 ml per liter—most machines need 2 1/2 oz. added at a typical 2
gal. wash cycle). For soak, circulate or ultrasonic use, make a 1% solution in cold, warm or
hot water. For difficult soils, raise water temperature and use more detergent. Wear protective
gloves and eyewear when handling. RINSE THOROUGHLY—preferably with running
water. For critical cleaning, do final or all rinsing in distilled, deionized or purified water.
For food contact surfaces, rinse with potable water. Used on a range of alkali resistant glass,
ceramic, plastic and metal surfaces. Corrosion testing is advisable.
