Orbital Cleaners

Orbital Cleaner Tempest

The Tempest 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 constant, repeatable and verifiable action of the unit provides very powerful, stable jets with high dwell times, maximising chemical contact time and mechanical energy.
