General Description
Gunclean Toftejorg 270 FT (fixed turbine driven) tank cleaning unit consists of two main parts: the Gun Unit
(GU) and the Power Unit (PU). The GU is mounted in the deck, protrudes into the tank and directs the liquid jet.
The PU is the drive and operation unit and is permanently mounted on the GU inlet housing. The PU gets its
driving power from the turbine fitted in the inlet housing. The turbine rotates by power generated by the
cleaning fluid.
The 270 FT Universal has an inlet housing where the turbine is mounted horizontally.
The rotation speed of the PU normally varies between 0.5 rpm and 3 rpm depending on the nozzle dia and line
pressure at the inlet housing but some adjustments can be carried out. The basic model of the Power Unit has
four programmes to choose from, all pre-programmed to give a tighter spray pattern in the bottom of the tank.
One further advantage with this Power Unit is the possibility to program the pitch angle of the nozzle to suit the
actual tank in which the machine is fitted.
The elevation of the nozzle in the vertical level is indicated by the nozzle angle scale, and the direction of the
nozzle in the horizontal plane is shown by the direction of the tab on top of the lifting rod.
The Gunclean Toftejorg 270 FT Power Unit is designed for easy operation and easy service. The cover is
easily removed to get access to the moving parts of the Power Unit for service and inspection.
Note : Service must be carried out by trained or authorised staff.
Caution: Before operation the cover must be put back.
