Tank cleaning tips
- Heated water vs impact. Hot water is costly, but it may be necessary to remove certain residues. In some cases, increasing cleaning impact may eliminate the need for hot water. This can result in a significant reduction in energy use and annual savings of thousands of rands. A local sales specialist can advise on how to determine if increasing impact can eliminate hot water use in an application.
- Reduce cleaning time by increasing impact. Simple adjustments to liquid pressure and flow may reduce the number of cycles needed for thorough cleaning. Faster cleaning saves time and reduces the use of water and chemicals.
- Cleaning hard-to-reach areas. Internal obstructions, like agitator shafts and blades block the spray from hitting the tank walls. Having the flexibility to reposition tank cleaning equipment can make it easier to achieve complete cleaning. For example, using adjustable ball fittings, adjustable flanges, or lances enables the tank cleaner to be positioned exactly where needed. This enables cleaning of hard-to-reach areas and the ability to target heavily soiled areas or skim lines.
- It takes more than equipment to ensure proper cleaning of tanks, totes, vats, drums and more. It requires experience and expertise to clean tanks thoroughly and quickly using the least amount of water and chemicals possible.
