Available from Tecpro Australia, the innovative Breconcherry Tornado, is a high-flow Jetting Tank Washer specially designed to provide very high impact jets for difficult to clean products such as yeast, glue and resin.

The Tornado produces two highly focused jets that move around the tank in a spiral pattern to provide a powerful 360º coverage. The mechanism is driven entirely by the cleaning fluid, with geared movement to maintain an optimum Jet Peripheral Velocity that maximises jet impingement and chemical dwell times. Ideal for large and very large vessels, including brewing tanks, mixing vessels and chemical reactors and has several advantages over existing tank cleaning heads:

• Quick 7 Minute Wash Cycle: Maximum cleaning is applied in a minimum amount of time – less time spent on CIP means production “down time” is minimised.

• Lower Flow Rates: Conserves water and dramatically reduces cost of chemicals and effluent disposal.

• Fewer Parts: With only 48 parts in total and a basic spares kit consisting of 10 parts, the Tornado is extremely easy and economic to maintain.

• Back Wash Nozzles and Sleek Design: Blasts clean any remaining product on the body of cleaning head reducing wear and tear and ensuring high purity and hygiene.

• New Carbon PTFE Bearings: Improves performance and eliminates contamination risks associated with wear and tear of ball bearings. Lightweight and compact, the Tornado has a 1.5” BSP connection and requires a minimum manhole/flange opening of 210 mm for unit insertion. At a pressure of 10 Bar and a flow rate of 360 L/min, the Tornado has a cleaning radius of 13.5 m.  It is suitable for working temperatures up to 95º C and ambient temperatures of up to 140º C. The Tornado is the perfect tank washer for high impact, powerful cleaning where high standards of hygiene, efficiency and long-term reliability are essential.
