Sertun Demo Instructions
You will need:
•
•
•
•
•
A clear bucket
Quat sanitizer
Ranch dressing
A Sertun™ towel
Quat test strips
Sertun Demo Instructions
Prep:
• Make a 200ppm quat solution with luke warm water (DO
NOT USE COLD WATER)
• Check the solution with a QT test strip to make sure its at
the proper level
• Spread a light sheen of ranch dressing onto the surface (do
not use too much, this may effect color change back to
blue)
Sertun Demo Instructions
Use:
• Take the Sertun Sanitizer Indicator Towel and add it to the
200ppm sanitizer solution.
• Squish the towel around until you see the wiper turn from Yellow
to bright Blue. (explain that this will take 45-60 seconds for the
initial change)
• When the towel is bright blue, fold it into 4 squares with the blue
check side out.
Sertun Demo Instructions
Use:
• Wipe the area where the ranch dressing is, using all 4 sides to
get the blue towel almost completely yellow. Show the towel
as it turns yellow while wiping.
• Return the used yellow towel to the sanitizer solution and
squish around until it turns bright blue again. (this will take
less time that the first one)
• Show the operator the bright blue re-charged towel.
Product demonstration
After the first reversible color change…
• Explain that the color change will happen back/forth until the solution is no longer
effective- the used yellow towel will not turn bright blue again. They can refer to
the bucket sticker to compare the towel color to the color wheel to determine
effectiveness.
• When the towel will not change back to blue, they will need to make a new
bucket of sanitizer solution.
• Then place the used yellow towel into the new solution and the towel will turn
bright blue again. When this does not happen, it is time to replace the towel.
