How it works

How the system works

The system delivers 18 bar hot or cold water at constant pressure through cleaning nozzles that use approximately 28 to 36 litres of water per minute. Single or multistage booster pumps are installed close to a water source or mains in the factory to increase the pressure as required.

Sized to your factory

The booster pump is sized to the capacity of the cleaning system and the number of satellite wash points your factory requires. The pump controls speed up and slow down at constant pressure depending on the number of users, which makes it very energy efficient. Water is discharged from the booster pumps to satellites for foaming, rinsing and sanitizing, and the number of satellites depends on the factory size and floor space.

Booster pump options

Option 1 is a single stainless steel vertical multistage 18 bar, 7.5 kW booster pump. Option 2 is a double stainless steel vertical multistage 18 bar, 7.5 kW booster pump. Both are supplied complete with control panel, pressure transducer and electrical VSD control panel.

Hygiene outcome

The cleaning system can help in the prevention of listeriosis, salmonella and other bacteria in factories.
