Instructions for the CPA-2 and CPP-2 Processors
[CPP-2]
Clean all chemical spills immediately to prevent staining the unit, contamination of the tempering bath, and possible introduction of corrosive chemicals into the control unit.
The CPA-2 and the CPP-2 Processors are made of chemical resistant plastics, however, periodic cleaning is recommended:
1 The outside of the processor can be cleaned by simply wiping it with a damp cloth.
2 The water in the tempering bath should be changed regularly to prevent buildup of algae. Depending on local conditions and water quality, this step may be needed weekly or even daily. For best results, drain the tempering bath at the end of your processing session.
3 The inside of the tempering bath should be cleaned periodically to remove any buildup of scum.
WARNING: Do not use chlorine bleach (Clorox) or other products that contain chlorine to clean or maintain the water bath. Chlorine will corrode the heating element, possibly causing an electrical short circuit. The amount of chlorine, in 'chlorinated' drinking water, is not enough to damage the heating element.
JOBO offers an excellent product for cleaning your processor called Processor Clean II, a powdered concentrate, available in two sizes #4135 (4.7 lb. jug) and #4136 (4 oz. packet). To use: Turn off the processor. Drain all water from the processor. If the outside of the bottles or graduates need cleaning, leave them in their slots, otherwise remove them. Place about 200 ml. (6 3/4 fluid oz.) measure of the powder (or two packets) in a graduate or bottle with about 1 liter (34 oz.) of water and dissolve. Fill the trough with water. Pour the container of dissolved cleaner into the lower trough. Turn on the processor. Set the temperature of the processor to about 38°C (100°F). Leave the processor on (to recirculate) for at least eight hours or overnight. Turn off the processor. Drain and rinse the troughs. Refill the lower trough before using the processor.
