  • Usage Instructions
    ● Place the gear case soiled with cardium in a tank filled with CardiKleen
    ● Ensure that the gear case is completely dipped in the solution
    ● Circulate the solution with the help of a pump for the timings as mentioned below depending on the ambient temperature

    Sr. NoAmbient tempCirculation timeSoaking time
    130° +/- 5°C4 hours8 hours
    210° +/-2°C8 hours8 hours
    34° +/- 1°C16 hours8 hours

    ● The cardium compound (4 inch thick) is completely dissolved in the solution with above timing
    ● In case of lower gear case, the “lid” of cardium loading must be kept open for effective circulation
    ● At lower ambient temperature, heating the solution to a maximum of 30°C will reduce the time needed for cleaning of the cardium
    ● Let the gear case remain in this solution soaked for 24 hours
    ● After the recommended time, remove the gear case from the tank
    ● Clean the gear case with duster
