Supporting single to multi-circuit configurations and multiple heating options, it can be flexibly arranged according to workshop layout. It is an ideal on-site cleaning equipment for dairy factories, beverage plants and large food processing workshops.
Working Principle
The CIP (Cleaning In Place) system completes the whole cleaning process through closed-loop circulation without disassembling production equipment. This split type system adopts independently arranged tanks, including alkali tank, acid tank, hot water tank, clean water tank and return water tank.
The cleaning solution is automatically heated inside the tank. The temperature controller monitors the liquid temperature in real time and adjusts the opening of the steam regulating valve to accurately maintain the preset cleaning temperature. Pressurized by the conveying pump, the cleaning solution is delivered into the inner cavities of storage tanks, pipelines and production equipment to be cleaned, and circulates continuously in the closed loop. Through hydraulic scouring combined with chemical decomposition of acid and alkali solution, it thoroughly removes material residues, dirt and microorganisms on the inner wall of equipment.
The cleaning process can sequentially complete alkali washing, acid washing and hot water rinsing according to process requirements, with process switching realized by manual operation of corresponding pipeline valves. The tank is equipped with automatic liquid level alarm. When the concentration is insufficient, concentrated acid and alkali are added manually; when water is insufficient, manual water replenishment is performed, balancing operation stability and flexibility.
Equipment Features
- Split flexible layout: Each cleaning tank adopts independent split design, which can be flexibly arranged according to workshop space, adapting to different plant layouts and facilitating capacity expansion and transformation.
- Automatic constant temperature control: The cleaning solution adopts automatic heating mode. The temperature controller precisely regulates the steam valve to stably maintain the set temperature, ensuring consistent cleaning effect.
- Complete multi-tank configuration: Equipped with alkali tank, acid tank, hot water tank, clean water tank and return water tank, fully covering acid washing, alkali washing, water rinsing and water recovery procedures.
- Multi-circuit optional: Supports single, double, three and four circuit configurations. It can clean multiple zones simultaneously or perform cleaning while production is running, greatly reducing downtime for cleaning.
- Multiple heating options: Available with built-in coil heating, external plate heating and external tubular heating, which can be flexibly selected according to on-site heat source conditions.
- Multi-level automation: Provides three control levels: fully automatic, semi-automatic and manual. The semi-automatic type realizes automatic temperature control with distribution cabinet, balancing cost and ease of use.
- Automatic liquid level alarm: High and low liquid level in the tank is automatically alarmed and indicated to remind timely water and liquid replenishment, ensuring stable system operation.
- Hygienic standard manufacturing: Full food-grade stainless steel structure with fully closed pipeline circulation, avoiding secondary pollution and complying with food and pharmaceutical industry hygiene specifications.
