Jet Cleaner TANKO-JM
16/90 Translation of the original Operating / Installation Instructions 2016/12 3 Construction and Function
3.2 General Function Description
The jet cleaner of the TANKO-JM series is a cleaning device designed with an internal actuator. The
materials of the device are stainless steel and plastic. The bearings do not require additional lubrication
as they are flushed with cleaning agent during operation and thus simultaneously lubricated and
cooled.
The actuator unit is driven by the cleaning agent which flows through it. The cleaning agent flows from
the media connection, through an inflow disk and into the device and drives the impeller which is solidly
connected to a rotor shaft.
The cleaning head is connected to the actuator unit in such a way that the generated torque is
transmitted directly onto the integrated bevel gear unit.
The gear unit comprises one fixed bevel gear wheel and one circulating bevel gear wheel. The
circulating bevel gear wheel drives the nozzle carrier (with nozzles).
The rotation of the circulating bevel gear wheel around the axis of the fixed bevel gear wheel and the
forced rotation around its own axis generates the orbital rotary movement of the nozzles around the
cleaning head.
The different number of teeth on the bevel gears causes the nozzle position to shift with each revolution
of the cleaning head. A cycle is complete when the nozzles are back in their exact initial position after a
certain number of revolutions.
The orbital movement of the jet creates a closed cleaning pattern on the inner surface of the container,
the mesh size of which depends on the number of teeth on the bevel gears, the number of nozzles and
the distance from the container wall.
The jet-blast principle of the nozzles concentrates the cleaning agent, generating a high-energy jet. The
mechanical cleaning effect depends on the outlet speed, the mass and the angle of impact of the
cleaning agent.
The intensive cleaning jets dislodge the deposits adhering to the container wall, rinse them off at high
speed and discharge them.
Very good cleaning results can be achieved using the jet cleaner for soluble substances and if the
appropriate jet cleaner is selected for the respective container size.
Differently sized devices, variations of head sizes, nozzle quantity and the nozzle bore are available to
suit the specific requirement and the size of the container.
Sample applications for jet cleaner type TANKO-JM:
Tanks, silos, barrels, containers, pipes, dryers, centrifuges, agitators, vacuum containers, spraying
towers, container washing plants, fermenters, filters, mixing containers and horizontal dryers.
