Deep line cleaning
Chlorine‑based cleaning powder for dispense lines with heavy soiling
TM Desana Max CL is an alkaline powder cleaner with active chlorine for deep cleaning of beverage dispensing systems. It is designed to remove biofilm and stubborn residues, and to verify the result by colour change during the process.
What this product offers
This cleaning sachet is intended for shock or recovery cleaning when an installation has heavy soil, persistent residues or long periods without maintenance. Compared with a maintenance cleaner, it is more intensive and designed for circuits that need a deep clean.
It is particularly well suited to beer installations and other beverages dispensed by line where biofilm, organic dirt or hop resin residues can affect flavour, aroma, flow rate and foam or service stability.
Its real technical value lies in combining alkaline action with active chlorine, single‑dose dispensing and visual color verification. This helps standardize the process, control the result more effectively and decide whether the cycle needs to be repeated before putting the line back into service.

Compatibility and use cases
TM Desana Max CL is used in dispense installations where standard regular cleaning may not be sufficient. It is a particularly suitable solution for beer lines and other beverages that show biofilm, persistent dirt or stubborn residues after long periods without maintenance.
It can be integrated into cleaning protocols with a self-cleaning tank or with a cleaning container connected via the appropriate tap head to the dispensing system. It is commonly used in bars, restaurants, breweries, wine bars, events and other Horeca installations with tap lines.
Before purchasing, it is advisable to consider the actual volume of the circuit and the type of cleaning connection in the installation. If there are several lines, long coils or multiple service points, you may need to prepare more solution volume and work in sections.
Installation and considerations before buying
- Check whether you have a self‑cleaning keg or a pressurised cleaning vessel available.
- Check the cleaning coupler or adapter that is compatible with your keg, line or extraction system.
- Calculate the total volume of the circuit to know how much solution you need to prepare.
- Bear in mind that this product is intended for deep cleaning, not for light routine maintenance cleaning.
- Prepare the solution according to the documented dosage and with lukewarm water.
- Set aside enough water for the final rinse before putting the line back into service.
- Use gloves, goggles and adequate ventilation while handling.
- Do not mix this product with acids or with other incompatible products.
Recommended maintenance and use
TM Desana Max CL makes sense when the installation requires a shock cleaning or more intensive hygienic recovery. It can be especially useful with widely spaced cleaning cycles, in old lines or in circuits with obvious build-up of organic residues.
As good practice, it is advisable to take a reference sample of the initial colour, allow the solution to act for the specified time, repeat the cycle if the solution continues to change colour intensely, and then rinse with water until the circuit is clean and ready for service. In demanding installations, final verification by pH helps ensure correct rinsing.
Frequently asked questions
Is this product for routine maintenance or for deep cleaning?
It is mainly intended for deep cleaning, recovery of old lines or soil that is difficult to remove.
Is it only for beer?
No. The manufacturer presents it for beer and other beverage dispensing systems, always within an appropriate cleaning protocol.
What does the colour change from purple to green indicate?
It indicates that the solution is acting on deposits and soil in the circuit. The process is considered complete when the colour remains the same as the initial reference sample.
Do I need additional accessories to use it?
Yes. You normally need a cleaning keg or vessel and the coupler or adapter compatible with your installation.
Do I need to rinse with water after cleaning?
Yes, always. The manufacturer specifies rinsing with water before and after use and final pH verification where applicable.
Can it be mixed with other cleaning products?
Do not mix with acids. It is important to follow the product’s technical data sheet and safety data sheet.
