Rotating Cleaners
Slow Rotating Cleaner TB
The TB2 / TB3 with their effective drive mechanism and the slow constant rotation speed ensure a consistent cleaning result with a very low maintenance. They are suitable for different cleaning fluids and across a wide temperature range and offer a compact cleaning solution by minimal moving parts.
Advantages
- Economic flow rates
- Ball bearing free-increased service life
- Slow, constant rotation
- Powerful round jets
- FDA conform
- Hygienic and self-cleaning
- SIP through the nozzle possible
- Preferred mounting position: vertical down
Operation
Wash fluid drives a simple rotating motor, which drives the rotating ball. All the wash fluid exits the unit through the small number of large holes. The specially designed pattern of holes ensures the high power jets use the minimum amount of wash fluid to deliver optimum performance.
Applications
The slow rotating cleaner TB is ideal for replacing fixed or rotating spray balls. The high energy, high impact jets provide very effective cleaning. Compact in design, effective in performance, they meet all hygienic design requirements, which makes them highly suitable for the pharmaceutical, and biotech industries as well as food, beverage and other hygiene conscious industries.

Around the world in seven questions: New foods we’ll love
Last year was not a year of hyped-up headlines for alternative proteins. Perhaps that is precisely why it was an important year for food biotech, the biotechnology behind everyday foods and ingredients. While the sector worked through a difficult funding environment, approvals were still granted, pilot lines set up and new platforms tested in the background. In short: headlines are turning into infrastructure. Frederieke Reiners heads GEA’s New Food business. She and her team work at the intersection of biotechnology and industrial food production. In this interview, she takes us on a world tour of food biotech in seven questions.
