If you are going to use water as a main part of the industrial processes in your new business, you probably want to ensure that the water is of the best possible quality. Water should be sanitary and clean so that you do not have to worry about the contamination of any of your products. Here are some steps to keeping the water that is used for manufacturing processes safe.

Use a Water Filtration System

First of all, you should consider installing a water filtration system that filters all of the water that enters your factory. Then, you do not have to worry about installing separate filtration units on your equipment. Make sure that you keep your water filtration system in good condition by changing the filters and otherwise completing important maintenance. This will help you keep your water filtration system working in the long run.

Keep Fluid Control Components in Good Condition

Always keep fluid control components in good condition. Your fluid control components include your valves, sensors, monitors, and other similar equipment. Make it a part of the daily routine in your factory for all of these components to be checked to ensure that they work properly during or after each shift. Keep extra valves and other similar parts on hand so that they can be swapped out as needed. If all of these components are not in good shape, the water might not pass through as quickly as it is supposed to. This can lead to system back-ups and standing water that can become contaminated. In fact slow-moving waters or standing waters can lead to environmental hazards, bacteria buildup, and insect infestation (which can cause disease). Talk with a professional, like DEWCO Pumps & Equipment, Inc, if you need to assess the integrity of your quality control products.

Clean and Sanitize Equipment Regularly

All of the equipment that your water passes through during the manufacturing process should be cleaned regularly. Along with taking the equipment apart and cleaning everything on a regular basis, all parts that can be accessed should be sanitized with a mild bleach solution and then allowed to dry on a daily basis. If the parts that come in contact with the water are dirty, then obviously, the water will become contaminated. Regular cleaning will help remedy this problem.

As you can see, there are steps that you can take to keep the water sanitary and clean in your factory. By doing so, you can help ensure product quality and can prevent contamination of your water and your products.
