PBW is an alkaline, non-caustic, environmentally and user friendly cleaner.

DESCRIPTION

P.B.W. is a buffered alkaline detergent that has been proven to be more than an
effective substitute for caustic soda cleaners. Because of its unique formulation
of buffers and mild alkalis, it is safe on skin as well as soft metals such as stainless
steel, aluminum, and on plastics. P.B.W. uses active oxygen to penetrate carbon
or protein soils and is not effected by hard water. The oxygen also helps in
reducing B.O.D. and C.O.D. in wastewater, which is an added environmental
benefit.

P.B.W. has been formulated as a C.I.P. cleaner and is very effective in removing
protein soils found on brew kettles, fermenters, conditioning tanks, filters and all
packaging areas. The concentrations to remove these soils are typically in the
1% range. However, due to soil and water conditions this concentration will
vary. To help in hard water areas P.B.W. has been formulated with enough
chelators to tolerate hard water over 17 grains.

P.B.W. is an excellent choice as a soak cleaner because it does not
require excessive heat as do most caustic based cleaners. This product
has cleaned brass and copper filters, and industrial aluminum surfaces
successfully.

GENERAL USE DIRECTIONS

CIRCULATION CLEANING: Use 1 to 3 ounces per gallon depending on soil load.
Heat to 130° to 180° F for 30 minutes.

hours or allow to soak cold overnight.

When using P.B.W. in food processing areas the equipment that has been
cleaned must be rinsed with potable water. Just prior to use, sanitize the
equipment in accordance with public health standards.
