Cleaning the DJ-100

Cleaning of the DJ-100 is exclusively restricted to the components contacting the product. The fluid

channel in the jet is rinsed and the nozzle plate is cleaned with a lint-free cloth. Please take the following

steps:

Rinsing the Fluid Channel

1. Disconnect the fluid pressure hose and remove the syringe. Replace the dispensing fluid with

an appropriate cleaning fluid. Place a cup under the jet to collect fluid.

2. Connect the fluid pressure hose.

3. Open the jet until cleaning fluid comes out. The cleaning fluid will typically exit the jet at a

higher speed than the fluid that was being dispensed. Close the jet as soon as the cleaning

fluid regains its original color. Use at least 30 ml of cleaning fluid to rinse the jet.

CAUTION! Do not trigger the jet without a liquid medium! If dispensing is carried out without

fluid, the nozzle seat might be damaged and this might cause leakages.

"NOTE For best results, allow the cleaning fluid to soak in the fluid path for five

minutes with the jet closed.

4. Open the jet again to purge the cleaning fluid.

"NOTE After all the cleaning fluid has drained, compressed air will escape. To

prevent a mess, put a cloth or cup in front of the nozzle.

5. Repeat the rinsing process three times.

6. Disconnect the fluid pressure hose.

7. Remove the cleaning fluid syringe.
