Advantages - Clipdisc
- Ultra Hygienic Design
- Ball bearing free-increased service life
- Low Maintenance
- Quick effective wash
- FDA conform
- SIP through the nozzle possible
- Preferred mounting position: any
- Available for tank safety system VARITOP®
Operation - Clipdisc
Wash fluid drives a simple rotating disc. The disc spins providing an instant and total coverage of all the internal surfaces of the vessel. All the wash fluid exits the unit over the disc creating powerful high energy droplets. The wash is fast and aggressive, delivering optimum performance in a short timescale. The units are also ideal for burst rinsing.Applications - Clipdisc
The simple and hygienic design makes the units highly suitable for the pharmaceutical, biotech, food, beverage and other hygiene conscious industries.

Operation - Sanidisc
Wash fluid drives a simple rotating disc. The disc spins providing an instant and total coverage of all the internal surfaces of the vessel. All the wash fluid exits the unit over the disc creating powerful high energy droplets. The wash is fast and aggressive, delivering optimum performance in a short timescale. The units are also ideal for burst rinsing.Applications - Sanidisc
The Sanidisc is ideal for replacing fixed or rotating spray balls or other rotating units where a quick aggressive wash is required. The high energy, high impact droplets provide very effective impingement up to two and a half meters depending on the size of the unit chosen, which means that a single unit can clean vessels up to five meters in diameter. Simple in design, effective in performance, they meet all the essential FDA, USDA and 3A material and design requirements. This makes the units highly suitable for the pharmaceutical, biotech, food, beverage and other hygiene conscious industries.Downloads

The breakthrough that changed spray drying
In 1976, NIRO engineers responded to a competitive challenge by rethinking what spray drying could do. Their idea became the multi-stage dryer MSD. Fifty years later, the same fundamental principle helps turn liquids into the powders used in essential nutrition products and important medicines around the world. Refined through decades of engineering expertise, customer insight and continuous development, MSD is a story of innovation with lasting impact.

Beyond the machine: unlocking better plant performance
An efficient machine does not automatically make an efficient factory. Real improvement often starts by looking beyond individual equipment and understanding how processes, energy systems and operating decisions affect one another. It’s a holistic approach designed to uncover opportunities that might otherwise be missed.

How a valve reshapes the way food and drinks are made
In food and beverage plants, valves are commonly operated using compressed air. GEA Hydract® Actuation Technology moves valves with water instead, in a closed, digitally controlled circuit. The result is a valve that can be held exactly in place and steered in fine-tuned steps. This results in lower energy use and greater control.
