Application examples of the TANKO-RF mini-retractor Small tanks, barrels, containers, pipe lines and the like. Comment on the Cleaning Process

The result of a cleaning process with the device, like all other cleaning processes, depends on multiple parameters. According to the “Sinner's Circle”, the four most important parameters for cleaning are: – Chemicals (cleaning medium, plus the product and its concentration) – Mechanical power (removal of dirt, establishment of contact with the cleaning medium) – Temperature and – Time (reaction time of the cleaning medium and duration of the cleaning process). All four factors are mutually dependent and vary in relation to each other in terms of their size. The desired cleaning result can only be achieved with a well-balanced combination of pressure, flow, reaction time, temperature and cleaning medium. 3.3 Technical Data The estimated safe service life of the device is 10 years with single-shift operation and the use of drinking water. The prerequisites for this are that the device must be maintained properly at the intervals specified in

Section 7.4 Maintenance and the wearing parts must be replaced regularly. All media other than tap water can reduce the service life of the device.
