DR. AIRE|What are some tips for cleaning electrostatic precipitators?

Electrostatic precipitators are indispensable environmental protection equipment in the catering industry, but if they are not cleaned for a long time, the accumulation of grease may affect the purification efficiency and even cause safety hazards. In fact, cleaning electrostatic precipitators is not that troublesome. With some practical tips, you can easily complete the maintenance work, ensure the efficient operation of the equipment, and bring a more green and environmentally friendly operating environment to restaurants.

Cleaning frequency: regular cleaning, twice the result with half the effort

Different types of restaurants have different fume emissions, so the cleaning frequency also has to be particular:

High frequency use (barbecue, hot pot): clean once a month.

Medium frequency use (Chinese restaurant): clean once every 2 months.

Low frequency use (simple meals, Western food): clean once every 3 months.

Appropriately shortening the cleaning cycle can not only improve the purification efficiency, but also extend the service life of the equipment.

Cleaning tips: Easily maintain the electrostatic precipitator

1.Daily cleaning to reduce grease accumulation

Casing cleaning: Use a neutral detergent and a soft damp cloth to wipe the device casing to prevent surface oil accumulation.

Fan blade cleaning: Remove the fan blades and use a soft brush to remove dust and oil to ensure smooth operation of the fan.

2.Focus on cleaning and restore equipment to efficient operation

Electrostatic adsorption plate:

Remove the electrostatic plate and soak it in warm water and neutral detergent for 10 minutes.

Use a soft-bristled brush to clean grease and dust, and avoid using hard tools such as wire brushes.

After rinsing, dry it and then put it back into the equipment to ensure insulation.

Filter cleaning:

The filter is usually detachable and can be cleaned with a high-pressure water gun for better results.

Regularly replacing the filter is also an effective way to reduce maintenance difficulties.

3.Use a cleaning tool to save time and effort

There are special electrostatic precipitator cleaning fluids or cleaning equipment on the market. By placing the electrostatic plate or filter into the automatic cleaning equipment, you only need to wait for a few minutes to complete the deep cleaning, which greatly saves labor costs.

Green and environmental protection: How to deal with oil stains after cleaning?

The oil produced during the cleaning process should not be dumped at will, but should be handled by professional institutions in accordance with environmental protection requirements to avoid secondary pollution to the environment. Some restaurants can also consider introducing oil recovery devices to convert waste oil into industrial fuel to achieve resource reuse.

The importance of cleaning: from maintenance to environmental protection

Improve equipment efficiency: Timely cleaning can prevent oil accumulation and ensure that the equipment always maintains efficient purification.

Reduce operating costs: After cleaning, the purifier consumes less power, reducing electricity expenses; reducing equipment loss and extending service life.

Enhance customer experience: Electrostatic precipitators with good purification effects can help restaurants create a fresh and comfortable dining environment and attract more repeat customers.

The maintenance of electrostatic precipitators is not difficult. Mastering cleaning tips and arranging the cleaning frequency reasonably can not only save time and effort for restaurants, but also help environmentally friendly operations. In the future, the green development of the catering industry requires the efforts of every restaurant, starting with a properly cleaned electrostatic precipitator, and contributing to a clean and environmentally friendly tomorrow!
