Hygienic design and construction of pipework is key to an effective CIP Plant. There are several instances and possibilities for cross contaminations to occur in poorly designed or constructed pipework with dead legs. With its strong presence and proven designs, Hypro CIP stations take into consideration all design aspects to facilitate effective CIP. The CIP plants come loaded with adequate instrumentation levels to deliver the right temperature, flow, pressure, and concentration of CIP solutions to the equipment. With correct concentration, measurement water is also conserved during CIP by avoiding unnecessary drainage of water.
The tank configurations are selected based on CIP requirements followed by supply pumps, heaters. It’s also important to have the right type of pump for CIP Return and Hypro always uses a self-priming pump. The CIP systems come with pre-programmed CIP cycles loaded on the PLC to make it user friendly. Combinations are provided to facilitate different CIP cycles based on process conditions.
CIP systems circulate cleaning solutions in a cleaning circuit through pipework, machines, vessel, and other associated equipment. It is good practice to design equipment with fewer parts and no points that detergent cannot reach or where fluid accumulates; this will reduce cleaning time as well as save water, chemicals, and energy. This cleaning is done through cleaning devices Or Spray Balls provided in vessels etc. Pressure & flowrate at which CIP is getting Carried out is a very crucial part & needs to maintain to get effective cleaning of the tank. Various types of cleaning devices are used depending upon Tank diameter, Like Static Spray balls, Rotary spray balls, Cleaning Jets, etc.
Hypro CIP Tanks is designed in accordance with sound engineering practice & hygienic industry norms. The mechanical design of the tank is based on relevant ASME section VIII for dish shell & GEP. Where the code regulations are not precisely defined for a given situation, practical experience has been applied for.
- Process design (Heat transfer areas are based on a tailor-made computer-based program developed by our company & as per Hygienic Process Design & Practice.
- The tanks are suited for outdoor installation.
- All piping related to glycol, dome drain, and including cable conduits is routed through the insulation.
