Reactors and autoclaves, containers, barrels, railroad cars and road tankers from various industry branches have to be cleaned and recycled. The containers are cleaned inside and outside whereby plaster, lacquer, paints and similar substances are removed before refilling thus meeting the high quality requirements. URACA cleaning systems offer optimal cleaning results. The procedure is subject to ecological high pressure technology.

By means of high pressure water, various incrustations can be removed inside of autoclaves, reactors, spray towers and vessels. The pump unit discharges high pressure water of up to 1600 bar through the URACA Tank Cleaning Head Nozzles. The water jet cuts through the deposits removing hard incrustations by means of precise rotating movement thus reaching the inner surfaces in an optimal way.

Thanks to their examination certificate according to ATEX directive 2014/34/EU for category 1, URACA tank cleaning heads series TWK are permitted to be used in explosion proof areas zone 0 and zone 20. Optimized displacement circle diameter allows use of cleaning heads even with small access openings.

URACA’s high pressure water cleaning of vessels is a pollution-free procedure without chemical additives, mechanical tools or boiling. The waste water is disposed of, just by separating it from the cleaned products. Compared with former methods, the cleaning cycles are now shorter and the cleaning effect better.

For getting optimal cleaning results, the correct positioning of the tank cleaning head is of great importance. Due to the positioning device and the hose reel system being adapted to the geometry of the vessel, specific cleaning operations can be carried out. Thus custom-made cleaning systems are built for a great variety of applications, e.g. TWK Trunk-O-Jet suitable for the cleaning of railroad cars, hose reel systems for the cleaning of reactors, and automatic systems for the cleaning of tanks, barrels and vessels.

URACA High Pressure Cleaning Systems can cope with an amortizing time of less than 1 year.
