Laboratory Cleaning: Alcojet Detergent not Dissolving in Washer
Q. Alcojet is not dispensing/dissolving in my lab washer. Do you know why this would happen?
A. When this happens to customers, the most common cause is putting Alcojet into a wet dispenser cup. The caking effect is made worse if the Alcojet does not immediately dispense before running the washer. This causes the wet Alcojet to sit in the wet detergent dispenser cup, cake up solidly and form a cement. When the wash cycle finally pops the dispenser door, the detergent will not dissolve.
