BRANSON PRECISION CLEANING
Basics of Cleaning
 Remember
– All cleaning agents have an environmental impact
 Objective
– Eliminate
 Air emissions
 Water pollution
 Waste disposal
 Conclusion
– Elimination is not feasible; we must minimize and
control environmental impact

 Water quality scale
– Good quality tap water - 4 K ohms = 125 PPM
– 100 K ohms = 5 PPM
– 500 K ohms = 1 PPM
– 1 M ohms = 0.5 PPM
– 5 M ohms = 0.1 PPM
– 10 M ohms = 0.05 PPM
– High quality D.I. water - 18 M ohms = 0.02 PPM

Water Quality
 In precision applications the quality of the rinse
water itself can be a factor
 Ground water, hard or soft, can create rinsing issues
 Most precision processes use deionized (DI) water
– Ions removed by polar exchange in special resin beds
– Organics removed by activated carbon beds
– Bio-contaminants controlled with UV light/filtration
– Quality evaluated by monitoring conductivity or resistivity
