Parameters for citric acid flushing

In flushing with citric acid what solution and temperature do you like to run at and generally how long do you flush?

That would depend on which solution and the alloy of the part.

What are you trying to do with the flushing with citric acid ? Are you removing debris, passivating or disinfecting? Most operations work best at around 60-70 deg.C., but it depends on what you are doing.
