Washing systems which ensure the highest hygiene standards corresponding to HACCP standards.

IBC tank washers

Automatic systems for washing and sanitising IBC tanks and isothermal boxes with high energy efficiency levels. Suitable for removing even stubborn residue from the tanks, they are tailor-made on the basis of the customer’s requirements and ensure results in terms of hygiene which comply with the most stringent standards.

IBC tank washers
  • The possibility of washing tanks and isothermal containers of various shapes and type, of different heights and dimensions: square, round, plastic and steel.
  • Hourly washing capacity of up to 20 tanks and up to 80 isothermal containers.
  • Available in the cabin version with a single door or double “pass-through” doors, or in the continuous tunnel version.

Tank washing systems constructed for perfect internal and external cleaning and hygiene.

The tank washing systems are fully automated, also in the loading and unloading stages, and are produced according to pharmaceutical/hospital hygiene standards.

  • TAILOR-MADE: the machine is designed, developed and configured for each individual customer, on the basis of their requests and requirements.
  • Structure in stainless steel with thick insulated panels to prevent heat dispersion. This technology offers a dual function: reduction in energy consumption and noise reduction.
  • Customized washing programs based on the type of material held within the tank.
  • Washing programs designed to obtain maximum energy efficiency.
  • High pressure to remove all types of stubborn residue or dirt.
  • Responsible dosing of chemical solutions to protect the environment as well as the operators involved in the IBC tank washing operations.
  • Multiple water heating systems.
  • Significant savings of energy, water and detergent.
  • Reduction in maintenance costs and times.
  • Reliability and performance levels unchanged over time.
  • Constant and uninterrupted monitoring of the functions and critical parameters.
  • Interfacing with centralised monitoring systems in compliance with HACCP standards.
  • Structure in stainless steel.
  • Prime quality raw materials.
  • Selection of materials responding to extremely high standards (pharmaceutical).
  • State-of-the-art technological systems for the extraction of fumes.
  • Innovative filtering systems
  • Pre-wash cycles for the most stubborn residue
  • CIP (Clean In Place) self-washing program which preserves and purifies the production lines of organic and inorganic contaminants. CIP is a self-washing automatic system for all circuits, walls and key points of the machine which does not require disassembly. This is carried out through the introduction of detergent fluids at a specific pre-set concentration, pressure and temperature and constantly monitored, followed by careful washing and sanitization.
  • Drying system using a new technology designed and developed by Colussi Ermes able to combine optimal drying capacity with minimum consumption. It can be integrated with the same washing cabin or an additional cabin to increase the hourly washing capacity.
  • Constant monitoring of all parameters in compliance with HACCP standards (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points). This program allows the operator to have full control of the critical points to ensure hygiene.
  • “Ready to Use” program for immediate system operation at the start of the shift.
  • Automated movement systems
  • Bar code reader to identify each individual tank

The tank washing systems are available in different configurations and customizations to meet any requirement or production capacity:

  • Cabins with a single door which offer washing cycles for just a few tanks with maximum hygiene safety
  • Medium sized systems, stand-alone or in-line, with double “pass-through” doors to wash from 2 to 10 tanks/hour.
  • High-tech multi-phase in-line systems for industrial use allowing for hourly washing capacity of up to 20 tanks/hour and up to 80 isothermal containers/hour.
