Tank cleaning systems
SNP provides a complete range of nozzles and cleaning systems for cleaning tanks such as food processing tanks, large tanks, storage tanks, stormwater attenuation tanks (or storm basins) and everything in between, including IBCs.
For a comparison of the main types of CIP heads, see our videos below. For answers to the most common questions about tank cleaning/CIP, watch the videos below or read our tank washing FAQs here.
Any environment and any residue
Our wide range of tank and tank washing systems is not only suitable for different tank sizes, it is also designed to handle all kinds of residues.
We have hygienic, self-cleaning systems suitable for food processing, pharmaceutical production and other applications. We also have systems capable of treating fluids loaded with particles such as sludge or oils, ATEX certified systems and finally, we can offer systems operating in very aggressive environments such as in acid tanks.
Regardless of the environment, the size of the tank and the residue to be cleaned, we have the appropriate cleaning system. Do not hesitate to contact us to discuss your individual project.
Our tank cleaning products can be classified into 4 main categories: static/fixed nozzles, static spray balls, rotary balls/spinners and rotary jet cleaners. Click on the Brochure icon top right to download the full brochure.
We also offer a system to easily clean large IBC containers, making in-house cleaning quick and efficient. Our IBC cleaning solution includes a pump with control panel, lance, lids and cleaning head (we recommend the Orbitor Eco for a super fast cleaning cycle of just 3 minutes or, for less stubborn residues, the rotating nozzle RSB25). For more details, click the IBC icons below.
