Vacuum CIP system

KHS has launched vacuum CIP system for cleaning of the beverage tanks at medium temperatures of up to 50 degrees centigrade.

The KHS vacuum CIP solution eliminates the usual mixing of media during media changeover and the resulting loss of cleaning agents. The new system design offers considerable savings potential when it comes to caustics and acids and a specific reduction in fresh water consumption. The flushing amounts needed in the past will now reduce drastically while eliminating the necessity of leaving the system filled with water.

The CIP tanks are designed for a significantly smaller capacity than that has been possible. The volume requirement - depending on the application - can be reduced by to 50 per cent compared to the traditional CIP solution. Besides the argument of lower tank costs, there are also the advantages of lower power consumption for heating media and the reduced space requirements of the CIP system.
