KÄRCHER: Tank interior cleaning

At the transport logistic 2019 trade fair in Munich, KÄRCHER will be showcasing systems for cleaning the interiors of tanks, containers and silo vehicles. The main focus at the trade fair will be on the new tank interior cleaning head.

Solution for transport and logistics from Kärcher

Kärcher offers products and systems that clean the inside of tanks, containers and silo vehicles. As different products are transported in these containers, the cleaning of the products is very demanding. The solution that is installed must therefore be very individually tailored to the customer's needs.

What does an indoor cleaning system consist of

A system consists of various components. On the one hand, there are the components in the technical room. These are pumps and hot water generators, for example. In addition, there is a large part of the control system, so that the system works together functionally. And the internal tank cleaning head plays a very important role. This transfers the energy and temperature produced in the pumps and hot water generators to the inner wall of the tanks for cleaning.

Innovation: driven by an internal water turbine

The innovation to the predecessor product of the tank interior cleaning system is that the drive is powered by an internal water turbine. In addition, a very robust and versatile product was produced in order to be able to respond to as many applications as possible. The approach was also to manufacture the product from as few individual parts as possible in order to further simplify maintenance for the customer. Also with the aim of increasing operational reliability. The customer can take care of small jobs themselves, such as replacing seals, should this become necessary due to the long operating hours.
