Jet Cleaner TANKO-JM

The TANKO-JM is a rotating cleaning device and belongs to the group of jet cleaners. The device is driven by the cleaning agent. The device is used for cleaning the interiors of containers with and without installed equipment. For the purpose of these instructions, containers refer to enclosed, depressurized tanks, silos, barrels, containers, pipes, etc., which are provided with an outlet that ensures a free outward flow of the supplied cleaning fluid. The pressure in the container to which the device is attached may not exceed a maximum of 0.5 bar (7.25 psi). The device was developed, engineered and built exclusively for industrial and commercial use. It must not be used for private use.

In all cases, operating company must check whether the device is suitable for its application.

The device can be used in containers inside and outside of buildings in compliance with the limitations for use (see section 3.3 Technical Data ). In the process, the following must always be observed:  Only operate the device when installed inside an enclosed container.  Never direct the cleaning jet or torrent from the device at persons.  Protect the device from freezing (e.g. risk of frost from possible residual water).  The device is designed for fixed pipe installation only. Installation on a hose is PROHIBITED.  Use a suitable filter system in the supply line for the cleaning agent.  Operate the container only within the approved parameters, e.g. pressure and temperature, (see section 3.3 Technical Data ).  Only cleaning agents which are compatible with the materials of the device (see section 3.4 Cleaning Agents ) may be used.  The preferred installation position for the device is vertical with the cleaning head pointing downwards. Other installation positions are possible (see section 5.2.2 Installation Position ).  The device may generate vibrations when cleaning the container. Any vibrations going beyond this must be avoided (see section 7.4.1 Maintenance Intervals ).

The device is NOT suitable for the following applications:  The device is NOT suitable for private use.  The device is NOT suitable for ATEX applications.  The device is NOT suitable for use outside of containers.  Holding the device with your hand during operation is PROHIBITED.

 The device must NOT be immersed in the product of the production process (NOT even partially). This could cause the product to enter into the device. The spray boreholes may become blocked. The free movement of the actuator may be obstructed.  The device must NOT by operated with air over a long period as the cleaning agent is used for lubrication of the bearings. The device is intended exclusively for the purpose outlined above. Any other use beyond that described here or alteration of the device without written approval from the manufacturer is considered IMPROPER use.
