Theory of Operation: How Parts Cleaning Works
Theory of Operation: How Parts Cleaning Works MART defines the term to clean as to overpower the soils. The MART Parts Washer is a high-impact pressure, high-temperature, industrial water-based cleaning system that uses a combination of the following factors to achieve cleaning results: Power x Temperature x Chemical x Time = Clean The relationship of these variables can be varied in an infinite number of ways to achieve the same level of cleanliness. Your own needs determine the relative value of each variable. Keep in mind that the MART Parts Washer provides one of the highest blasting powers in the cleaning industry, allowing you to reduce the wash-cycle times for your parts to a minimum. Additionally, the high blasting power allows you to operate the washer at lower cleaning temperatures, thus saving energy, and using less chemical than spray washers The exact combination of the factors must be determined for your application, based on the types of soils to be removed, the degree of cleanliness required, the cycle time required, the types of parts to be cleaned, and so on. How the Parts Washer Works The parts washer operates on a timed cycle. The operator places the parts to be cleaned in the washer on the turntable, closes and latches the door, and then starts the timed cleaning cycle. During the cleaning cycle, a high-temperature, high-pressure, water-and-detergent cleaning solution blasts soils from the parts. After the cycle has stopped and the steam has exhausted, the operator removes the cleaned parts. The parts washer utilizes closed loop, waste minimization technology, continuously reusing its cleaning solution and effectively reducing pollution potential.

The Biomatic® Parts Cleaning System Is…
BIOMATIC® The Environmentally Friendly Bioremediation Parts Washer 1 The Biomatic® Parts Cleaning System Is… • A Bioremediation System. The Graymills Biomatic Parts Cleaning System uses the natural technology of microbial bioremediation to reduce oils, greases and other hydrocarbons introduced into the cleaning system to water and carbon dioxide (CO2). No oil and hydrocarbon buildup means the unit continues to clean parts indefinitely (we recommend cleaning the tank once a year, but the fluid can be put back in for continued use if desired.) • A Waste Minimization System. Talking to your customers about “waste minimization” will get their attention. With the Graymills Biomatic Parts Cleaning System, users will go from monthly dumping of fluid and unit cleanup…to once a year. That’s a “waste minimization” sales story few customers can resist. • A Tough Cleaner. Aqueous based Super Biotene® is pH neutral with a mild, pleasant odor. A mixture of emulsifiers and surfactants, they contain no VOCs, so they’re EPA and air quality friendly! Super Biotene cleans grease and grime off even the dirtiest parts, then the microbes go to work, reducing the hydrocarbon contaminants (oils, greases) to water and CO2. • A Good Investment. Recycling costs are slashed…parts cleaner waste is minimized…the dirtiest parts come clean…and the system is operator friendly. 2 How The Biomatic® Parts Cleaning System Works It is important to understand that the Biomatic® Parts Cleaning System is more than individual products - it is a total cleaning environment. The Biomatic Parts Cleaning System relies on the perfect balance between the Super Biotene® cleaning solution and the microbes introduced into the system.

Classification of Cleaning Agents Cleaning Agents Are Classified According to the Principle Method by Which Soil Or Stains Are Removed from the Surface
Classification of Cleaning Agents Cleaning agents are classified according to the principle method by which soil or stains are removed from the surface. This will be determined by their composition. The principle classes are: • Water • Detergents • Abrasives • Degreasers • Acid cleaners • Organic solvents • Other cleaning agents 1. WATER: Water is the simplest cleaning agent and some form of dirt will be dissolved by it, but normally it is a poor cleaning agent if used alone. It becomes effective only if used in conjunction with some other agent, e.g. a detergent. Water serves to: • Carry the cleaning materials to the soil • Suspend the soil • Remove the suspended soil from the cleaning site • Rinse the detergent solution from the surface • Water has poor power of detergency because: • It has high surface tension and forms droplets • It has little wetting power • It is repelled by oil and grease • If shaken within oil the emulsion does not prevent the formation of large droplets • It has low surfactant effect (surface active agent) 2. DETERGENT: Detergents are those cleaning agents, which contain significant quantities of a group of chemicals known as ‘Surfactants’ (chemicals that have water and soil attracting properties). A number of other chemicals are frequently included to produce detergents suitable for a specific use. A good detergent should – • Reduce the surface tension of water so that the cleaning solution can penetrate the soil • Emulsify soil and lift it from the surface • Be soluble in cold water • Be effective in hard water and a wide range of temperatures. • Be hard on the surface that has to be cleaned.

Environmental Services Cleaning Guidebook
Environmental Services Cleaning Guidebook Adapted from Allina Hospitals and Clinics Environmental Services Cleaning Guidebook by the Minnesota Hospital Association (MHA), Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) and Stratis Health, with representatives from: CentraCare Health – Melrose, Grand Itasca Clinic and Hospital, Minnesota Valley Health Center, Park Nicollet Methodist Hospital, United Hospital, University of Minnesota Medical Center, and Windom Area Hospital, as a part of the “Controlling CDI” project. 1 2 Introduction Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) is becoming more prevalent as a health care-associated infection, causing diarrhea that can lead to colitis, colon perforation, sepsis, and, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), is fatal in approximately 14,000 Americans annually. CDC guidelines have been in place nationally for at least five years, targeting antimicrobial stewardship, early identification and treatment, and the prevention of health care facility transmission. A recent study by Sitzlar, et al. (2013) suggested that effective cleaning coupled with staff supervision is a powerful method in decreasing the potential for CDI transmission in hospitals. The Minnesota Hospital Association (MHA), in conjunction with Stratis Health and the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH), has been working with seven Minnesota hospitals: CentraCare Health – Melrose, Grand Itasca Clinic and Hospital, Minnesota Valley Health Center, Park Nicollet Methodist Hospital, United Hospital - a part of Allina Health, University of Minnesota Medical Center, and Windom Area Hospital, to adapt the Allina Health System environmental cleaning training and supervision model for statewide dissemination. The accompanying environmental services cleaning guidebook and training presentation apply to general infection and control principles, with CDI specific recommendations included, such as bleach or other sporicidal disinfectants.
