In the Cleanroom product range you will find high-quality solutions for cleanroom furniture. Wall and floor shelves are made of stainless steel according to the customer’s measurements, within the dimensions specified in the technical data.
The structure of the shelves is designed to facilitate cleaning of the product.
The floor shelf 6040 has fixed shelves welded to the frame. Cleanroom shelves are available as flat shelves or perforated plates.
Our free standing floor racks are custom made to order. The number of shelves can be freely chosen to suit the customer’s needs, the standard depths being 300, 400, 500 and 600 mm.
The height of the leg pipes is 2000 mm, but shorter legs are also available by special order.
It is advisable to check the dimensions of the rack (length x width x height) as well as the type and number of shelf plates when placing the order.
Cleaning
Stainless steel equipment and fixtures must be cleaned on a regular basis to prevent them from rusting. A water wash is often sufficient for cleaning a stainless steel surface; hot water and steam can be used in special cases.
Impurities and deposits that have adhered to the surface can be removed by rubbing them with an emery cloth, for example. NOTE! The emery cloth must be non-ferrous. It is advisable to first try the treatment on a less noticeable part of the product.
Detergents
Standard cleaning powders or power detergents such as soda, borax or sodium perborate can be used for cleaning stainless steel surfaces.
Alkaline solutions, such as soda, ammonia and diluted soda lye, can be used for dissolving grease. Acetone, petrol, alcohol and similar organic solvents can also be used for removing grease deposits or other water-insoluble matter.
Detergents that contain sulphuric or hydrochloric acid may not be used for cleaning stainless steel surfaces.
Disinfection
The sterilising agents used for disinfection often contain sodium hypochlorite or potassium hypochlorite. However, these substances are dangerous to stainless steel as they easily give rise to pitting corrosion. Other disinfectants that contain chlorine, such as chloramines, are also dangerous. The most affordable disinfectant that is suitable for stainless steel is nitric acid; even mild concentration solutions have a bactericidal effect.
Treatment after cleaning
The detergent must be carefully cleaned from the steel surface. Rinsing with plenty of water is usually sufficient for this purpose. If acidic detergents are used, a pre-rinse should be carried out with a neutralising solution, such as soda.
The user must always ensure that the room concerned is sufficiently ventilated, proper protective gear is used and any in-house occupational heath and safety instructions are complied with.
