Real Specifications
| Spec | Value | Source document |
|---|---|---|
| D14T caustic CIP spec | 1-2% NaOH at 160-180°F | Dosatron — Water-Powered Dosing Pumps |

Dosatron's own D14T literature names the real failure mode directly: manual dilution drift, where hot water and hand-mixed chemistry can have correct temperature, contact time, and mechanical action while concentration still drifts.
CIP chemistry runs through four distinct temperature/concentration windows in a single wash cycle — caustic at 160-180°F, acid at 140-160°F, sanitizing rinse at 171°F, foam cleaning at 110-140°F — and Dosatron's D14T publishes real numbers for all four because the actual failure mode isn't temperature or contact time, it's concentration drifting when hot water meets hand-mixed chemistry.
Every material and product claim on this page traces to real, vendor-published documentation on file with LibertyCES. Chemical compatibility depends on exact concentration, temperature, and duty cycle — confirm current specifications with the manufacturer and request a spec review before final specification.
