FAQ’s
Q: How does the SaniMega SB improve cleaning efficiency?
A: The rotating spray jets ensure high-impact cleaning, eliminating residue faster than static spray balls while using less water and detergent.
Q: Can the SaniMega SB be used in pharmaceutical applications?
A: Yes! It is fully 3-A certified, making it safe for use in pharmaceutical, food, and beverage industries where hygiene compliance is crucial.
Q: What tank size is the SaniMega SB suitable for?
A: It is designed for large tanks (40-400m³ capacity) and can be customized to meet different operating pressure & flow rate requirements.
The Alfa Laval SaniMega SB operates using pressurized liquid to induce rotational movement, ensuring high-impact, full-surface tank cleaning. This rotation generates fan-shaped spray jets, creating a swirling cleaning pattern that effectively removes residues from tank walls.
Why SaniMega SB Over Static Spray Balls?
- Higher Impact Cleaning – Rotating jets remove tough residues faster.
- Shorter Cleaning Cycles – Increases production uptime with efficient CIP performance.
- Less Water & Energy Usage – Saves up to 40% in operational costs.
