???Freeboard height??? means, for a batch cold cleaning machine, the distance from the liquid solvent level to the top of the solvent cleaning machine. For a batch vapor cleaning machine, it is the distance from the solvent/air interface to the top of the solvent cleaning machine, as measured during idling mode.

These units are fully enclosed except for the conveyor inlet and exit portals.

???Primary condenser??? means a series of circumferential cooling coils on a vapor cleaning machine through which a chilled substance is circulated or recirculated to provide continuous condensation of rising solvent vapors and, thereby, creating a concentrated solvent vapor zone.

???Reduced room draft??? means decreasing the flow or movement of air across the top of the freeboard area of a solvent cleaning machine to less than 15.2 meters per minute (50 feet per minute) by methods including, but not limited to, redirecting fans and/or air vents to not blow across the cleaning machine, moving the cleaning machine to a corner where there is less room draft, and constructing a partial or complete enclosure around the cleaning machine.

Types of solvent cleaning machines include, but are not limited to, batch vapor, in-line vapor, in-line cold, immersion cold, and remote reservoir cold cleaning machines, as well as, airless cleaning and airtight cleaning systems.

???Superheated vapor system??? means a system that heats the solvent vapor, either passively or actively, to a temperature 10oF above the solvent???s boiling point. Parts are held in the superheated vapor before exiting the machine to evaporate the liquid solvent on the parts. Hot vapor recycle is an example of a superheated vapor system.

???Vapor cleaning machine??? means a batch or in-line solvent cleaning machine that heats liquid solvent that is used as part of the cleaning or drying cycle. The heated solvent may or may not be boiling. The term does not include machines that do not have a solvent/air interface, such as airless and airtight cleaning systems.

???Vapor up control switch??? means a thermostatically controlled switch that shuts off or prevents solvent from being sprayed when there is no vapor. On in-line vapor cleaning machines the switch also prevents the conveyor from operating when there is no vapor.

???Working mode??? means the time period when the solvent cleaning machine is actively cleaning or drying parts.

???Working mode cover??? means any cover or solvent cleaning machine design that allows the cover to shield the cleaning machine openings from outside air disturbances while parts are being cleaned or dried in the cleaning machine. A cover that is used during the working mode is opened only during parts entry and removal.

33.4.2.4 iv. Reduced room draft, a freeboard ratio of 1.0, and superheated vapor.

33.4.2.5 v. Reduced room draft and a freeboard refrigeration device operated to ensure that the chilled air blanket temperature, in oF, is no greater than 30 percent % of the solvent???s boiling point.

33.4.2.6 vi. A freeboard ratio of 1.0 and a freeboard refrigeration device operated to ensure that the chilled air blanket temperature, in oF, is no greater than 30 percent % of the solvent???s boiling point.

33.4.2.7 vii. Dwell and a freeboard refrigeration device operated to ensure that the chilled air blanket temperature, in oF, is no greater than 30 percent % of the solvent???s boiling point. Dwell shall be not less than 35 percent % of the dwell time determined for the part or parts basket.

33.4.2.8 viii. Reduced room draft, a freeboard ratio of 1.0, and dwell. Dwell shall be not less than 35% percent of the dwell time determined for the part or parts basket.

33.4.2.9 ix. A freeboard refrigeration device operated to ensure that the chilled air blanket temperature, in oF, is no greater than 30 percent % of the solvent???s boiling point and a carbon adsorber that reduces solvent emissions in the exhaust to a level not to exceed 25 parts per million, averaged over one complete adsorption cycle or 24 hours, whichever is less.

33.4.2.10 x. A freeboard ratio of 1.0, superheated vapor, and a carbon adsorber that reduces solvent emissions in the exhaust to a level not to exceed 25 parts per million, averaged over one complete adsorption cycle or 24 hours, whichever is less.

33.4.3 3. In addition to the requirements of paragraph d.1. 33.4.1 of this Section regulation, the owner or operator of a batch vapor cleaning machine with a solvent/air interface area of greater than 13 square feet shall implement one of the following control options:

33.4.3.1 i. A freeboard refrigeration device operated to ensure that the chilled air blanket temperature, in oF, is no greater than 30 percent % of the solvent???s boiling point, a freeboard ratio of 1.0, and superheated vapor.

33.4.3.2 ii. Dwell, a freeboard refrigeration device operated to ensure that the chilled air blanket temperature, in oF, is no greater than 30 percent % of the solvent???s boiling point, and reduced room draft. Dwell shall be not less than 35 percent % of the dwell time determined for the part or parts basket.

33.4.3.3 iii. A working mode cover, a freeboard refrigeration device operated to ensure that the chilled air blanket temperature, in oF, is no greater than 30 percent % of the solvent???s boiling point, and superheated vapor.

33.4.3.4 iv. Reduced room draft, freeboard ratio of 1.0, and superheated vapor.

33.4.3.5 v. A freeboard refrigeration device operated to ensure that the chilled air blanket temperature, in oF, is no greater than 30 percent % of the solvent???s boiling point, reduced room draft, and superheated vapor.

33.4.3.6 vi. A freeboard refrigeration device operated to ensure that the chilled air blanket temperature, in oF, is no greater than 30 percent % of the solvent???s boiling point, a freeboard ratio of 1.0, and reduced room draft.

33.4.3.7 vii. A freeboard refrigeration device operated to ensure that the chilled air blanket temperature is no greater than 30 percent % of the solvent???s boiling point, superheated vapor, and a carbon adsorber that reduces solvent emissions in the exhaust to a level not to exceed 25 parts per million, averaged over one complete adsorption cycle or 24 hours, whichever is less.

33.4.4 4. Batch vapor cleaning machines shall be operated in accordance with the following procedures:

33.4.4.1 i. Waste solvent, still bottoms, and sump bottoms shall be collected and stored in closed containers. The closed containers may contain a device that allows pressure relief, but does not allow liquid solvent to drain from the container.

33.4.4.2 ii. Cleaned parts shall be drained at least 15 seconds or until dripping ceases, whichever is longer. Parts having cavities or blind holes shall be tipped or rotated while the part is draining. During the draining, tipping or rotating, the parts shall be positioned so that solvent drains directly back to the batch vapor cleaning machine. A superheated vapor system shall be an acceptable alternate technology.

33.4.4.3 iii. Parts or parts baskets shall not be removed from the batch vapor cleaning machine until dripping has ceased.

33.4.4.4 iv. Flushing of parts using a flexible hose or other flushing device shall be performed within the vapor zone of the batch vapor cleaning machine or within a section of the machine that is not exposed to the ambient air. The solvent flushing shall be a solid fluid stream, not an atomized or shower spray.

33.4.4.5 v. When the cover is open, the batch vapor cleaning machine shall not be exposed to drafts greater than 40 meters per minute (132 feet per minute), as measured between 1 one and 2 two meters (3.3 and 6.6 feet) upwind and at the same elevation as the tank lip.

33.4.4.6 vi. Sponges, fabric, wood, leather, paper products, and other absorbent materials shall not be cleaned or dried in the batch vapor cleaning machine.
