Orbital Cleaners
The Tornado is a liquid driven Orbital Cleaner that can be used for mobile or stationary applications. The round jet nozzles rotate around two axes simultaneously and produce focused high impact jets generating a highly efficient 3D wash pattern.
The hygienic and compact design combined with the high power jets, makes it perfect for cleaning a variety of vessel sizes and equipment, also where hygiene is a priority. The unit can be used in the brewing, beverage, dairy, food, chemicals, coatings and transport industries -as permanently fixed or mobile installations.
