Reducing Cleaning Times for a Processed Meat Business
A new rotary jet head cut cleaning cycles by 75%
The Client
Our client – a business in the processed meat industry – needed to improve the working conditions involved with manually cleaning built-up animal fats and greases from a range of different sized process vessels, while also reducing cleaning times and saving water.
The Challenge
Our client was looking to run the system off the water mains and therefore there was a restriction on the available flow rate and pressure.
The Solution
To solve our client’s issue, we supplied them with the TJ20G Rotary Jet Head. However, with the restrictions of the water mains, flow rate and pressure were both lower than the recommended optimised cleaning performance.
To compensate for this, we also supplied Burst Rinse Nozzles. This nozzle design enables the TJ20G cleaning head to generate high levels of impact through a condensing, indexed cleaning pattern in both the vertical and horizontal axes, instantaneously achieving 360° coverage. The spray pattern quickly increased the coverage of the internal surfaces, evenly dispersing the hot cleaning media onto the internal tank surfaces, a crucial step in the removal of animal fats.
The Results
Cycle time reduced from 40 minutes to 10.
Application of hot media now only takes 30 seconds.
