Tank Cleaning Nozzle 360-A

Model: 360-A | SKU: 360-A | Category: Industrial Tank Cleaning Equipment

Overview

The 360-A Tank Cleaning Nozzle is a precision-engineered rotating spray system designed for large-scale tank cleaning applications. With full 360-degree rotation on both horizontal and vertical axes, this nozzle delivers consistent, high-impact cleaning coverage for tanks ranging from 8 to 40 meters in diameter. Constructed from 316L stainless steel, it operates reliably in demanding industrial environments including chemical processing, pharmaceutical manufacturing, food production, and environmental protection applications.

Key Specifications

Design & Operating Principle

The 360-A employs a dual-impeller mechanism with integrated gear reduction to achieve simultaneous rotation on perpendicular axes. Water enters through the upper impeller, generating swirling flow that drives the shaft assembly. The gear system—comprising fixed gears and an inner gear coupled to the Y-body—enables continuous 360-degree rotation while maintaining stable transmission through bevel gear meshing. This two-directional spray pattern ensures thorough coverage with minimal blind spots.

Performance Advantages

• Complete Coverage: Simultaneous horizontal and vertical rotation eliminates dead zones in tank interiors
• High-Impact Cleaning: Dual-directional spray pattern delivers concentrated impact force for stubborn residue removal
• Extended Reach: Effective cleaning range up to 40 meters accommodates large industrial storage tanks
• Reduced Cycle Time: Cleaning completed in 5–35 minutes depending on tank size and residue type
• Durable Construction: 316L stainless steel resists corrosion from aggressive cleaning agents and high-temperature environments
• Flexible Operation: Pressure and flow rate adjustability optimizes cleaning efficiency while minimizing water and chemical consumption
• Low Maintenance: Sealed gear mechanism prevents internal damage from poor water quality

Applications

• Chemical processing tank cleaning
• Pharmaceutical manufacturing equipment
• Food and beverage production tanks
• Environmental protection systems
• Industrial fermentation vessels
• Tanker truck interior cleaning
• Underground storage tank maintenance
• Coating and purification systems

Connection & Installation

The 360-A features male thread connections compatible with standard 1½–2 inch BSPT and NPT pipe threads. Tank mounting requires a minimum opening diameter of 120 mm. The nozzle integrates directly into existing CIP (Cleaning in Place) systems or standalone cleaning equipment.

Operational Recommendations

Optimal performance is achieved when operating within the 7–13 bar pressure range. While the nozzle tolerates pressures up to 21 bar, operation above recommended levels increases wear rates and may reduce cleaning effectiveness through excessive atomization. Flow rates between 6–50 ton/h should be selected based on tank geometry, residue characteristics, and desired cleaning cycle duration.

Why Choose 360-A

The 360-A represents a proven solution for industrial facilities requiring reliable, high-efficiency tank cleaning. Its precision rotating mechanism, robust 316L construction, and flexible operational parameters make it suitable for diverse cleaning applications across chemical, pharmaceutical, food, and environmental sectors. The combination of extended reach, rapid cycle times, and reduced resource consumption delivers measurable cost savings through lower water usage, reduced chemical consumption, and minimized downtime.
