Tank Washing Nozzles

Tank cleaning requires fluid to be delivered to the whole area of a vessel that needs cleaning. Typically, this means a 360° delivery of fluid. There are 3 basic designs of tank cleaner that will achieve this: rotary jet cleaners for high impact, rotary fan cleaner for medium impact and static cleaners for low impact.

  • Nozzle Features

    • Can be supplied with various other BETE nozzles for any desired application
    • Flow rates from 28.1 L/Min to 290 L/min
    • Clog resistant
    • Spherical omnidirectional coverage
  • HydroClaw clog-resistant stationary spray nozzle for quick, efficient tank cleaning The unique, patent-pending, clog-resistant design quickly cleans tanks and eliminates maintenance downtime associated with clogged spray balls.

    Who needs the HydroClaw?

    Ideal for tanks up to 10 ft. (3 m) in diameter often found in the food, beverage, chemical, and personal care industries where superior cleaning with reduced cycle times and low water, energy, and chemical consumption are important considerations. Do you have issues with your spray balls clogging? We have the solution.
