Orbital cleanersOrbital cleaners work on the basis of two rotating axes,one horizontal and one vertical, as shown in the illustration.

• Hygienic design• Ball bearing free (exception TMC)• Slim, compact design• Intensive cleaning with targeted jets• Long life• Easy-to-maintain• Driven by the cleaning medium (exception TMC)• Low number of components (orbital cleaners Typhoon,

Tempest, Tornado all use the same spare parts) • Reproducible cleaning by monitoring of the rotation

with sensor SMW 100 or Veri-Clean (optional)

GEA Breconcherry

Rotating jet cleanerThe proven cleaning method of the jet cleaner achievesoptimum cleaning results with powerful, slowly rotatingfan-spray jets.

• Operates with minimal drive pressure• Driven using fluid transmission• Functionally robust• Easy to maintain• Integrated cleaning lance• Various possible spray patterns using different nozzle

arrangements on the spray head • Long life due to wear-resistant components• For reproducible cleaning, the rotation monitoring

option is recommended

Retractors In-Line Sprayer / MR1/MR2The In-Line Sprayer has an extendable spray head thatonly extends into the product space during cleaning –which is especially useful for cleaning tanks with movingfixtures (such as agitators, scrapers, etc.) and for largepipes. After cleaning, the spray head retracts into its inoperative position.

• Savings on cleaning agents due to targeted cleaning• Demonstrable process reliability and functional

reliability• Range of seal materials

GEA Breconcherry

Rotating cleanersThe optimum cleaning effect of the rotating cleaners is produced by targeted flat jets or fast moving high impactdroplets

• Hygienic design• Ball bearing free• Low number of components

Spray ballsSpray balls as static cleaners are designed for flush clean-ing with a high flow rate, thus providing powerful flush-ing at low pressure.

• Low capital outlay• No wearing parts• Various possible spray patterns, materials, and surfaces • High flow rates

Efficient cleaning of tanks up to 8.5 meter diameter
