(3) Set the speed control knob to 80 and the stroke control knob to
100.
Pull out and hold pressure release knobs until solution is being
pumped out through release tubing to drain. Finally the operator resets the
stroke control knob to 40.
c. Have the operator proceed with the initial hypochlorite setup.
Ensure that personnel wears a protective shield and chemical gloves when
handling calcium hypochlorite.
Hypochlorite will give off chlorine vapor
which will burn your nose, throat, and lungs if breathed directly.
Make
certain the vent fan is running.
The hypochlorite chemical packets and
containers are identified by a circle symbol. The operator should perform
the following:
(1) Fill tank with product water, using the product utility hose and
turn the mixer on. Slowly add three packets of hypochlorite powder to tank,
one packet to six gallons of water, and mix slowly for three minutes.
(2) Set the speed control knob to 80 and the stroke control knob to
100.
Pull out and hold pressure release knobs until chemical solution is
seen in release tubing to drain.
(3) Reset stroke and speed controls on the hypochlorite pump
according to operating conditions as shown in Table 1-5.
These settings
will provide chlorination to meet the Surgeon General's requirements.
