CLEANING AND

SANITIZING
EQUIPMENT AND
INSTRUMENTS
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE
BETWEEN CLEANING AND
SANITIZING?
 THE USE OF SANITIZING AGENTS LEADS TO
EFFECTIVE SANITATION OF TOOLS, EQUIPMENT
AND UTENSILS.
SANITATION WITH THE USE OF PHYSICAL AND
CHEMICAL SANITIZING AGENTS WILL KILL
RESIDUAL MICROORGANISM THAT REMAIN
AFTER CLEANING. CLEANING BY WASHING
WITH SOAP AND WATER IS VERY IMPORTANT AS
IT ENSURES THE REMOVAL OF DIRT OR DEBRIS BY
PHYSICAL AND MECHANICAL MEANS.
 CLEANING ALONE BY
WASHING WILL NOT BE
CAPABLE OF TOTALLY
ERADICATING MICROBES,
GERMS AND VIRUSES, HENCE
THE NEED TO USE OF
SANITIZING AGENTS
 SOME SANITIZING AGENTS ARE DETERGENT
SOLUTION FOR SCRUBBING SURFACES OF
PROCESSING TABLES, 150-200 PPM
CHLORINATED WATER FOR SANITIZING. ALL
TOOLS AND UTENSILS ARE ALSO CLEANED AND
SANITIZED WITH THE USE OF DETERGENT
SOLUTION RINSED WITH TAP WATER BEFORE
SANITIZING WITH 150-200PPM CHLORINATED
WATER BY ALSO USED TO SANITIZEP
ROCESSING EQUIPMENT
 CHLORINE IS ONE OF THE
CHEAPEST AND MOST EASILY
AVAILABLE SANITIZERS IN THE
MARKET. IT IS POPULARLY USED IN
THE TREATMENT OF WATER FOR
BOTH HOUSEHOLD AND PLANT.
LIKEWISE CHLORINE ALSO USED TO
SANITIZE PROCESSING EQUIPMENT
AREA/MATERIALS TO BE VOLUME OF WATER VOLUME OF CHLORINE TIME ( MINUTES )
SANITIZED

HAND DIP 5 GALLONS 10.8 ml 2-5 minutes

EQUIPMENT 5 GALLONS 54 ml 2-5 minutes

FLOOR 5 GALLONS 125 ml 20 minutes

For food processing:

washing of vegetable and 5 GALLONS 27 ml 2-5 minutes
poultry
1. PROCEDURE IN CLEANING EQUIPMENT AND
INSTRUMENT:
A. WASH ALL THE EQUIPMENT/INSTRUMENT
WITH SOAP
B.RINSE WITH CLEAN WATER.
C. SANITIZE BY DIPPING INTO APPROVED
SANITIZER SOLUTION.
D. REMOVE FROM THE SOLUTION.
E. ALLOW TO AIR DRY
2.PROCEDURE IN SANITIZING:
A. PREPARE ALL THE MATERIALS NEEDED.
B. MEASURE A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF
CHLORINE AND WATER.
C. MIX AND DIP THE
EQUIPMENT/INSTRUMENTS IN THE MIXTURE.
D. REMOVE FROM THE SANITIZING
SOLUTION.
E. DRY THOROUGHLY.
 CALIBRATING
MEASURING DEVICES
AND INSTRUMENT
 WHAT IS CALIBRATION?

WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO
CALIBRATE FIRST MEASURING
DEVICES BEFORE USED IT?
CALIBRATION IS TO SET OR
DETERMINE THE ACCURACY
OF THE MEASURING
DEVICE.
 PROCEDURE IN CALIBRATING
A. WEIGHING SCALE
CHECK THE ACCURACY, SEE TO IT THAT THE HAND IS
POINTED AT ZERO IN AN EMPTY WEIGHING SCALE.
B. SALINOMETER
CHECK THE ACCURACY BY MEASURING 20˚ SALINOMETER
BRINE SOLUTION.
CHECK IF THE SALINOMETER RECORDS THE READING
CORRECTLY.
C. REFRACTOMETER
PLACE A DROP OF WATER (PREFERABLY DISTILLED
WATER) IN THE DARK CIRCULAR ORRECTANGULAR
AREA AND CLOSE THE COVER. A SHADOW OR
DARK AREA IS VISIBLE ON THE SCALE INSIDE THE
EYEPIECE. TURN THE CALIBRATION SCREW UNTIL
THE SHADOW FALLS ON THE ZERO MARK. OPEN
THE REFRACTOMETER COVER AND DRY THE COVER
AND GLASS PRISM USING SOFT TISSUE PAPER OR
A COTTON CLOTH.
D.THERMOMETER
CHECK THE ACCURACY BY
DIPPING IT IN HOT FOOD TO
SEE IF THE MERCURY RISES TO
DESIRED TEMPERATURE.
PROPER STOWING OF
TOOLS ,EQUIPMENT
AND UTENSILS
 WHAT IS STOWING?

WHY IS IT TOOLS
EQUIPMENT AND UTENSILS
MUST BE PROPERLY
STOWED?
STOWING MEANS
ARRANGING
COMPACTLY OR
PACKING
 TOOLS EQUIPMENT AND UTENSILS
MUST BE PROPERLY STOWED IN ORDER
TO PROTECT THEM FROM RUSTING,
CONTAMINATION, ETC, AND THUS
LENGTHEN THEIR SERVICEABILITY.
THEY MUST BE KEPT IN CLEAN
CABINETS WHICH ARE WELL-
VENTILATED AND NOT SUBJECTED TO
DRAFTS OR RAIN.
 TOOLS AND UTENSILS WHICH WERE
WASHED MUST BE DRAINED AND WIPED –
DRY BEFORE KEEPING THEM. THEY ARE
KEPT IN AN ORDERLY WAY IN ORDER THAT
IT WILL BE EASILY TO ASSEMBLE OR
PREPARE THEM WHEN NEEDED . THE
CABINETS OR RACKS WHERE THEY ARE
KEPT MUST BE PROPERLY LABELED FOR
EASIER IDENTIFICATION ON THE PART OF
THE USER
PROCEDURE:
1. WASH THE EQUIPMENT/INSTRUMENT WITH SOAP
2.RINSE THOROUGHLY WITH CLEAN WATER.
3.SANITIZE BY DIPPING OR SOAKING IN A
SANITIZING SOLUTION.
4. RINSE WITH CLEAN WATER.
5. DRAIN
6.DRY THOROUGHLY(AIR DRY)
7.WIPE WITH A CLEAN PIECE OF CLOTH.
8. CHECK THE ACCURACY OF THE
EQUIPMENT/INSTRUMENTS.
9.PACK/ STORE/KEEP IN A CLEAN DRY CABINET
PROCEDURE IN CLEANING, SANITIZING, CALIBRATING AND
STOWING EQUIPMENT AND INSTRUMENT
1. WASH THE EQUIPMENT/INSTRUMENTS WITH SOAP.
2.RINSE WITH CLEAN WATER.
3.SANITIZE BY DIPPING OR SOAKING IN SANITIZING
SOLUTION.
4.REMOVE FROM THE SANITIZER SOLUTION
5.RINSE WITH CLEAN WATER
6.DRY THOROUGHLY
7.CHECK THE ACCURACY OF EACH EQUIPMENT AND
INSTRUMENT.
8. PACK AND KEEP IN A CLEAN CABINET.
