Why is Extreme Simple Green® Aircraft & Precision Cleaner foaming so much in my parts washer?

High-pressure parts washers, when used with cleaners like Extreme Simple Green Aircraft & Precision Cleaner, generate foam by aerating the surfactant-based solution through intense water pressure and turbulence. This foam enhances cleaning efficacy by increasing the dwell time of the cleaner on surfaces, allowing its active ingredients to penetrate and dissolve contaminants more effectively. Additionally, the foam, when possible, acts as a visual cue, helping operators ensure consistent application across parts and components being cleaned.

The Extreme Simple Green formula contains a non-ionic surfactant, Ethoxylated Alcohol, which, when aerated in enclosed spaces with the pressure and turbulence created by vertical high-pressure part washers, produces more foam. This cleaning setup may be close to cleaning using a CIP (Clean-in-Place) system, where foam buildup in the enclosed cleaning circuit needs to be managed to avoid overflow.

To reduce foam without affecting cleaning power, add a non-silicone-based defoamer to your cleaning solution, following the defoamer's instructions on the label to match your acceptable level of foam. Foam levels can also be lowered by adjusting the product's concentration; more concentrated solutions produce more foam. Always refer to the product label for proper dilution instructions to balance cleaning performance and foam control.

If you have any questions about dilution ratios or defoamers, feel free to contact us.
