GJ 8 Industrial Jet Head
Alfa Laval GamaJet 8
Industrial Jet Head
The Alfa Laval GJ 8 is a Rotary Jet Head tank cleaning machine best suited for use in industrial environments. Built to clean vessels with volumes from 250-1250 m3, it pairs pressure and flow to generate high-impact cleaning jets that rotate in a repeatable and reliable 360-degree cleaning pattern.
Durable and reliable, the GJ 8 keeps water and cleaning media consumption to a minimum, but still provides reliable cleaning efficiency. The gear train uses food-grade lubricants, and reduces the machine’s risk of particle damage during operation. Easily customised to match user needs, the GJ 8 enables companies to spend less time cleaning and more time producing.
The Alfa Laval GJ 8 is designed for the removal of the toughest residues from industrial tanks across a broad range of industries, such as the chemical, pulp and paper, ethanol, starch, transportation, oil industries.

How the GJ 8
Rotary Jet Head Works
The high-impact jet stream from the Alfa Laval GamaJet 8 Rotary Jet Head covers the entire surface of the tank interior in a successively denser pattern. This achieves a powerful mechanical impact with a low volume of water and cleaning media.
The flow of the cleaning fluid makes the nozzles perform a geared rotation around the vertical and horizontal axes. In the first cycle, the nozzles lay out a coarse pattern on the tank surface. The subsequent cycles gradually make the pattern denser until a full cleaning pattern is reached. Once the full cleaning pattern is reached, the machine will continue to perform the next full cleaning pattern.
