•Application Note: Piping For Tank Washing: Hints From The Experts
At some point, manual tank washing gets to be a chore. Even when you're using an effective nozzle just for the purpose (such as a Lechler ACCUClean or Whirling Nozzle) the process of opening the cover, making the hose connection and climbing up the ladder can get old.
The real advantage for tank washing is the ability to leave the nozzle mounted in place so the whole process can be done with the turn of a valve. Systems that use this technology are called CIP for "clean in place" and use combinations of tank washing nozzles, cleaning solution storage tanks, cleaning solution injectors and controls to automate the process completely. The dairy industry developed the approach given their need for very thorough and consistent sanitation of all their process equipment. Pharmaceutical manufacturers soon followed for the same reasons.
