Description
The Alfa Laval GJ7 is their smallest rotary jet head tank cleaning machine. Built to clean small tanks, filling machines, drums and barrels. It combines pressure and flow to create high impact cleaning jets that rotate in a repeatable and reliable 360 degree cleaning pattern.
The GJ7 minimizes the consumption of watering cleaning media. The gear train , which uses food grade lubricants, reduces the risk of particle damage to the machine during operation. Easy to customize to meet customer requirements, it allows companies to spend less time on cleaning and more time producing.
APPLICATIONS
The Alfa Laval GJ7 is designed for the removal of residues in small tanks, filling machines, drums and barrels across a broad range of industrial applications such as, paint, ink, food & Beverage and oil & Chemical industries.
BENEFITS
- 60% faster cleaning = more time for production.
- Saves up to 70 % of your cleaning cost.
- High impact cleaning in a 360 Degree repeatable cleaning pattern.
- Cleaning process can be validated using Alfa Laval Rotacheck.
- Slim design makes it possible to insert through a small tank opening
STANDARD DESIGN
The choice of nozzle diameters can optimize jet impact length and flow rate at the desired pressure.
WORKING PRINCIPLE
The high impact jet stream from the Alfa Laval GJ 7 rotary jet head covers the entire surface of the interior of drum or barrel 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 course pattern on the tank surface. The subsequent cycles gradually make the pattern denser until at full cleaning a full cleaning pattern is reached. Once the full cleaning pattern is reached the machine will start over again and continue to perform the next full cleaning pattern.
