Mobile Cip plant for pipe and tank cleaning

Optimize your cleaning processes with this mobile CIP plant, designed for efficient and thorough cleansing of pipes, tanks, and process technology, enhancing operational hygiene without the need for complex reconfigurations.

The CIP mobile unit from Bucher Denwel offers an efficient solution for cleaning and sanitizing industrial equipment across various sectors, including food and beverage, chemical, and pharmaceutical industries. This portable Cleaning-in-Place (CIP) system seamlessly integrates into your production line, addressing challenges in cleaning pipes and tanks with minimal manual intervention.

Designed with flexibility in mind, it features customizable vessels for accommodating different cleaning chemicals, such as caustic soda and disinfectants, ensuring optimal compatibility and performance across different applications. The unit operates on a straightforward principle: preparing and circulating cleaning solutions through a defined sequence, with automated temperature and flow control to maintain precise cleaning conditions.

Ideal for beverage manufacturers, food processors, and pharmaceutical production, it supports a range of applications, including cleaning juice blending tanks, brewery fermentation vessels, and dairy industry components like milk pasteurization tanks. With its robust design, the unit’s capacity ranges depending on model—from the DCP050M managing flow rates of 20 to 50 hl/h to the DCP150M handling up to 150 hl/h.

Key features include Tri-clamp connections, stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance, and optional heating and spray nozzles for enhanced cleaning efficiency. Additionally, its automated sequencing valves eliminate the need for manual pipe reconnections, while the integrated sampling valve allows for in-process concentration checks.

This mobile unit is engineered for efficiency, using onboard heating elements and precise dosing for reduced energy consumption and improved cleaning results. It operates within a pressure range of 1 to 3 barg and temperature range of 0 to 90°C, offering versatility to suit various operational demands.
