Directions of Use
Recirculation method in-situ
For this cleaning procedure the engine needs to be stopped and secured. Permanently installed spray nozzles in combination with a cleaning solution tank and pump. It is advised to blind off the cooler outlet. Properly mix water and 10-30% AIR COOLER CLEANER, depending on the severity of the contamination, in the tank. Connect the pump's outlet to the nozzle assembly and the air cooler drain to the tank. Start the pump and spray the solution through the nozzles over the entire surface of the cooler and drain back to the tank. Circulate the solution for a period of 1 to 6 hours. After cleaning, rinse with fresh water. Remove the outlet blind and disconnect the pump and tank loop.
