GJ PF FT Tank Cleaning

GJ PF FT Tank Cleaning

Application

The field-proven Alfa Laval GJ PF is part of the world-renowned range of Gamajet high impact tank cleaning devices. This tank cleaning device is designed to be flow-through, meaning no lubricant can pass through the gear train. It has been proven to provide companies with up to 85% in water, time, energy, and resource savings compared to static spray balls. This device is capable of cleaning tanks with capacities between 18.9 m³ – 94.6 m³ (5,000-25,000 gallons). The Alfa Laval GJ PF fits through openings as small as 10 cm (4”) and operates at low pressures and flows, cleaning tanks in the ethanol, paper, pulp, chemical, steel, industrial fermentation industry, and many other applications that require high impact cleaning. By implementing this device into their tank cleaning process, companies spend less time cleaning and more time producing.

The Alfa Laval GJ PF FT tank cleaning machine was specifically engineered to offer the most efficient and effective cleaning for vessels with capacities of 5,000 to 25,000 gallons. This durable machine offers optimal cleaning at a variety of pressures and flows.

The sanitary design of the GJ PF FT makes it ideal for use in food and beverage, pharmaceutical and personal care industries, for both portable and permanent applications. The standard machine is self-cleaning, self-flushing, and self-lubricating, requiring no oil or grease in the gear train. All components of the GJ PF FT are made from FDA compliant materials.

The key to the GJ PF FT’s versatility and durability is the use of an oversized gear head that efficiently generates the proper torque to rotate the unit. The larger components last 20-30% longer than traditional drive mechanisms, making the GJ PF FT our most durable design to date.

The large gear reduction allows the GJ PF FT to operate at lower pressures and higher flows when compared to other tank cleaning machines. Like other Alfa Laval tank cleaning machines, the GJ PF FT uses the same proven l impingement cleaning pattern, scouring 100% of the tank, every time.
