Tank cleaning installation
A well-designed tank cleaning system is essential for ensuring that your bulk trucks are cleaned thoroughly and safely on the inside. You must clean your tanks between loads to prevent different substances from mixing. Think of chemicals, cement, or other liquids. If you are active in the food industry, you must of course be able to present a hygiene certificate. So it's not a piece of cake. Cleaning that is not carried out thoroughly enough can have dangerous consequences.
To guarantee high quality, we use the latest techniques. Our experts guarantee this in both tank cleaning and water purification. They think in terms of reliability, optimization, automation, and, above all, the long term.
A tank cleaning installation is practical for cleaning:
- containers,
- barrels,
- concrete mixers,
- flatbed trucks,
- …
However, you don't want to waste time cleaning: time is money. Having your own tank cleaning installation for your company is therefore definitely worth the investment.
We install this high-pressure system in a technical room, closed off to unauthorized persons. In addition to extra safety, this also offers other advantages. The devices, controls, dosing pumps, etc. operate in optimal conditions, which also extends their service life. We connect the pumps to the tank cleaning heads in your rinsing hall via a fixed pipe. The design of the heads allows them to rotate, spreading the high-pressure jet over the entire interior of the trailer or tank. This can be done:
- Electrically
- Hydraulically
- Pneumatically
This is a fully automatic system with two control options:
- Via the units next to the trucks
- Via a remote control (for simple applications)
The system consists of:
- A tank cleaning console: from here, you have a good view of the cleaning job and can operate the system smoothly and safely.
- A pump installation: the beating heart of the installation, so to speak.
- The dosing installation: ensures the ideal ratio of water and cleaning agent for efficient and cost-effective cleaning.
Van Damme coordinates these components in such a way that they deliver a sustainable and optimal cleaning result. Our high-pressure installations comply with the highest standards for safety and hygiene (including SQAS and HACCP), so that your company can also meet these standards.
The entire tank cleaning system is made of materials that guarantee good hygiene. A tank cleaning system can also be used to clean several tankers at the same time. Everything is fully customized to your requirements.
Tank cleaning in the food industry
For the food industry, tank cleaning is carried out using heat and air techniques in collaboration with specialized partners:
- Steam
- Rinsing with hot and/or cold water
- Soaping with various products
- Disinfecting
- Blowing dry
In doing so, we comply with the specific requirements for cleaning products and special washing programs. We provide the high-pressure pumps, pipes, and automatic washing programs ourselves. Our specialized partners provide the hot water and steam.
Wine and beer barrels can be cleaned using a budget-friendly Venturi system that rinses the barrels while simultaneously sucking up and removing the dirty water.
Tank cleaning in the non-food sector
Cleaning in the non-food sector can usually be done by simply rinsing with warm water. To clean concrete mixers in between uses, we offer automatic solutions with high-pressure cold water.
For cleaning IBC containers or drums, we have budget-friendly and advanced solutions depending on the type of use.
