How to Refill an Ecolab Hand Sanitizer Dispenser

Hand Sanitizer Dispenser - How to Refill an Ecolab Hand Sanitizer Dispenser

Ecolab is incredibly innovative when it comes to the matter of hygiene and safety. Protecting employees and customers can be made easy thanks to their equipment. However, those units will need your help to get them operating at their best by keeping them maintained and stocked. That’s why we created this guide on how to refill an Ecolab hand sanitizer dispenser, so your equipment is filled and ready for use for customers and staff. 

How to Open an Ecolab Dispenser

Opening these dispensers properly is very important. If the unit is opened incorrectly, it can be damaged and no longer open or stay securely closed. So, in order to avoid replacing the whole dispenser, use the proper opening procedure.

Ecolabs actually makes their dispensers easy to open. On the sides of the unit, there are two latches. Push on them simultaneously, and then the unit should open. The cover will fold downward and stay connected by the bottom hinge. It’s important to also be careful of the cover while it’s hanging open. If it were to get bumped, it could be broken off the hinge.

  2. Remove the empty cartridge - Slide the cartridge out from the top of the unit
  3. Install the new cartridge - Slide the new cartridge into place from the top of the unit
