Alfa Laval Toftejorg TZ-74

Application

The Toftejorg TZ-74 self-cleaning version rotary jet head provides 3D indexed impact cleaning over a defined time period. It is automatic and represents a guaranteed means of achieving quality assurance in tank cleaning. The device is suitable for processing, storage, and transportation tanks and vessels between 50 and 500 m3. The Toftejorg TZ-74 is used mainly in breweries, food, and dairy industries that require a strict demand for self cleaning of the machine and the downpipe. The Toftejorg TZ-74 self-cleaning version rotary jet head has been particularly successful in the brewing industry worldwide.

Working Principle

The flow of the cleaning fluid makes the nozzles perform a geared rotation around the vertical and horizontal axes. In the first cycle, the nozzles lay out a coarse pattern on the tank surface. The subsequent cycles gradually make the pattern more dense, until a full pattern is reached after eight cycles.

TRAX Simulation Tool

TRAX is a unique software that simulates how the Toftejorg TZ-74 self-cleaning version performs in a specific tank or vessel. The simulation gives information on wetting intensity, pattern mesh width, and cleaning jet velocity. This information is used to determine the best location of the tank cleaning machine and the correct combination of flow, time, and pressure to implement. A TRAX demo containing different cleaning simulations covering a variety of applications can be used as reference and documentation for tank cleaning applications. A TRAX simulation is free and available upon request.

Caution: Do not use for gas evacuation or air dispersion.
