Applications

The Alfa Laval TJ20G is designed for the removal of the toughest residues from hygienic tanks across a broad range of industries, such as the dairy, food, brewery, beverage, distillery1 , pharmaceutical, and personal care industries..

Benefits

• 60% faster cleaning = more time for production
• Saves up to 70% of your cleaning cost
• Eliminates the need for confined space entry for manual tank cleaning
• High-impact cleaning in a 360° repeatable cleaning pattern
• Cleaning process can be validated using Alfa Laval Rotacheck

Standard design

The choice of nozzle diameters can optimize jet impact length and flow rate at the desired pressure. A special version of the Alfa Laval TJ20G is available for distillery applications where larger particles in the cleaning fluid can pass though without damaging the machine. Alfa Laval offers a wide range of tank cleaning machines suitable for different duties and industries. An alternative that offers performance similar to the Alfa Laval TJ20G is the Alfa Laval GJ PF FT for hygienic applications that require a small tank inlet opening.

Working principle

The high-impact jet stream from the Alfa Laval MultiJet 45 rotary jet head covers the entire surface 360° 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 course pattern on the tank surface. The subsequent cycles gradually make the pattern denser until at 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.
