The tank cleaning device consists of a
base plate (1), folding rack (2), draw
pipe (3) and two cleaning heads (4) with
compressed air drive. The tank clean-
ing device is fastened to a lift unit with
the ring screw (5) during operation. The
folding rack moves the cleaning heads
into the extended/rectracted position
(A) or into the working position (B).

–

In the extended/retracted position, the
draw pipe must be slid down and fas-
tened to the base plate by means of the
transport lock. The cleaning heads are
tilted downwards. In this position, the
tank cleaning device is extended into
the tanks and extracted from them.

–

In the working position, the base plate is
tensioned tightly onto the tank dome by
means of the tensioning units. The vac-
uum/high pressure valve (8) equalizes
the pressure between the container and
the atmosphere. The draw pipe is
pulled up to the mark toward the top by
means of the lifting unit. Here, the
cleaning heads are swivelled into the
working position.

–

Steam to heat the tank can be drawn in
via the draw pipe and the steam noz-
zles (6).

–

For containers without floor drain
valves, the remaining liquid can be suc-
tioned off through the suction opening
(9) by means of a site-supplied suction
device.

–

The nozzles on the cleaning heads turn
around two axles and therefore touch
every place in the container. They are
driven by compressed air motors.

–

After the cleaning, air can be chan-
nelled in and out of the tank to dry it via
the two warm air connections (7).
