A cleaning system includes a cleaning apparatus that is positionable in a cleaning environment and a cleaning processing device. The cleaning apparatus includes a sensor and a cleaning device. The sensor is configured to measure a depth of a target material on a surface of the vessel, and the cleaning device is configured to generate a cleaning force. The cleaning processing device is configured to receive a plurality of depth measurements of the target material on the surface, determine a cleaning protocol for the cleaning device on the surface based on the plurality of depth measurements, and control the cleaning apparatus to cause the cleaning device to apply the cleaning force to the surface pursuant to the cleaning protocol.

A method of cleaning an inner wall surface (502) of a bell jar (500), by causing nozzles (112, 122) to discharge a cleaning liquid which contains abrasive particles, includes the steps of: (a) causing the nozzles (112, 122) to discharge the cleaning liquid at a discharge pressure at which erosion of the nozzles (112, 122), due to the cleaning liquid, occurs by not more than 500 m/hour; and (b) adjusting a distance between the inner wall surface (502) and the nozzles (112, 122) so that an impingement pressure, at which the cleaning liquid impinges on the inner wall surface (502), secures a pressure at which dirt on the inner wall surface (502) can be removed.

A rotary cleaning nozzle for cleaning surfaces of a beverage bottling installation using a fluid, comprising a nozzle assembly which has a feed duct for the fluid, and a nozzle head which is mounted rotatably on the nozzle assembly and has at least one nozzle outlet opening from which, during operation, fluid flowing through the feed duct and the nozzle head emerges in the form of a cleaning jet. The rotary cleaning nozzle furthermore comprises an electrical generator for the induction of electrical energy by way of rotation of the nozzle head, and a control unit for indicating a rotation of the nozzle head in dependence on the induced electrical energy.

A cleaning water feeding tool having a pipe structure to feed cleaning water to a water sprinkling cleaning device which has both end portions rotatably supported by a rotary base laid between a pair of rotary support parts disposed opposite to each other on a basket-shaped base, and includes the rotary head rotates with respect to the rotary base, and the rotary base rotates with respect to the basket-shaped base, including a horizontal portion that has a tip end portion connected to the cleaning water supply port and extends approximately horizontally in a state where a rotary shaft of the rotary base is disposed approximately horizontally, a straight portion that extends upward from the horizontal portion; and a hard material that configures or covers at least a portion receiving the cleaning water jetted from the water jet part of the straight portion.

A method of cleaning fouled process equipment which includes a process vessel (10) fouled by an organic foulant, includes spraying a hydrocarbon stream at a pressure of at least 69 bar(g) at fouled surfaces inside the process vessel (10) thereby to dislodge the organic foulant from the fouled surfaces. The hydrocarbon stream is sprayed from at least one nozzle (24) located inside the process vessel (10). The hydrocarbon stream is at a temperature below the melting point of the organic foulant or below the melting point of a major component of the organic foulant when the organic foulant is a multi-component organic foulant. The dislodged foulant is removed from the process vessel (10).

The present disclosure provides a system and method articulating and rotary spray system for fluids that includes a first drive for rotating a mast for different headings and a second drive for rotating a nozzle for different pitches at any time with or without rotation of the mast. The method and system uses a system of interacting gears that rotate a control rod in variable synchronization to control the nozzle pitch relative to the mast heading while the control rod orbits about a center of rotation of the rotating mast along a longitudinal axis.

A tank system includes a primary arm and a secondary arm mounted on a trolley. Each arm is configured to independently rotate 340 to 360 degrees in horizontal planes. The primary arm includes a pivot frame for adjusting the vertical position of the secondary arm by pivoting the primary arm in a vertical plane. At least one nozzle and a submersible pump are mounted to the secondary arm. The tank system is mounted within a tank or other enclosure by securing the trolley to a track system within the tank or other enclosure. The trolley is configured to move along the track system within the tank or other enclosure. The tank system may pump a fluid from the tank in a pumping configuration, mix the fluid within the tank in a mixing configuration, and/or clean the tank in a cleaning configuration.

Installation provided with at least one high-pressure circuit comprising at least one high-pressure pump and rotating nozzles attacking the four sides of crates in order to automatically remove labels, wherein the installation further comprises a low-pressure circuit able to clean the installation inwardly and to transport labels to specific filters so that stoppages are diminished and further able to recirculate the water of the high-pressure and low-pressure circuits, and wherein trolleys holding the crates are able to rotate by means of a predefined path on perimetral guides of the frame so that the jets of the nozzles attack the required walls of the crates on four sides.

A cavity cleaning and coating system for safely and efficiently cleaning and coating the interior of a cavity without requiring entry of any workers. The cavity cleaning and coating system generally includes a mount which is coupled with a movable arm of a vehicle. The mount includes an inner plate, which is coupled to the arm, and an outer plate. A shaft is coupled to the outer plate. The mount is adjustable independently of the arm of the vehicle, including outwardly, inwardly, and rotatably. A spray head is connected to the shaft. The spray head is rotatable and includes a dispenser for dispensing fluids. The vehicle is positioned near a cavity to be treated. The mount is adjusted for optimal positioning of the spray head. The spray head is lowered into the cavity to dispense a cleaning fluid and, after the cleaning fluid has dried, a coating fluid.

Cleaning arms for cleaning containers are disclosed that can be used for transportation of food, medical, and/or pharmaceutical products. In some embodiments, a container cleaning arm comprises a main body and rotatable head for cleaning a container interior surface. The main body comprises a proximate end configured for engaging with a motorized drive and a distal end rotatably coupled to the rotatable head. The rotatable head comprises a first washing nozzle or group of washing nozzles and a first air knife dryer positioned adjacent to the first group of washing nozzles.
