ky Powerful tank cleaning at a range of pressures and flows

Alfa Laval GJ PF

Application
The field-proven Alfa Laval GJ PF is part of the world-renowned range
of Gamajet high impact tank cleaning devices. It has been proven to
provide companies with up to 85% in water, time, energy, and resource
savings compared to static spray balls. This device is capable of
cleaning tanks with capacities between 18.9 m - 94.6 m. The Alfa
Laval GJ PF fits through openings as small as 10 cm and operates
at low pressures and flows, cleaning tanks in the ethanol, paper,
pulp, chemical, steel, industrial fermentation industry, and many other
applications that require high impact cleaning. By implementing this
device into their tank cleaning process, companies spend less time
cleaning and more time producing.

Working principle
The Gamajet range of high impact tank cleaning devices combine
pressure and flow to create high impact cleaning jets. Cleaning occurs
at the point at which the concentrated stream impacts the surface. It
is this impact and the tangential force that radiates from that point
which blasts contaminants from the surface, scouring the tank interior.
In conjunction with this impact, the device is engineered to rotate in
a precise, repeatable and reliable, 360 pattern. This full-coverage,
global indexing pattern ensures the entire tank interior is cleaned,
every time.

Standard Design
The choice of nozzle diameters can optimize jet impact length and flow rate at the desired pressure. As standard documentation, the Alfa Laval GJ PF
can be supplied with a Declaration of Conformity for material specifications.

TRAX simulation tool

TRAX is a unique software that simulates how the Alfa Laval GJ PF 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 device 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 a reference and documentation for tank
cleaning applications. The TRAX demo is free and available upon request.
