Cleaning-In-Place

Stationary Automatic CIP System is an advanced, high-performance device designed for cleaning technological installations, tanks, pipelines, and production systems in a closed loop without the need for disassembly. This system is ideal for industrial plants with high work intensity, where regular and thorough cleaning processes are required to maintain the highest hygiene and efficiency standards.

Stationary CIP systems are commonly used in industries such as food, beverage, pharmaceutical, chemical, and cosmetics, where frequent cleaning and strict process control are required. These devices ensure time savings, operational cost optimization, and full process automation, guaranteeing the highest standards of cleanliness.

Key Components of the Stationary CIP System:

• Chemical tanks with heating systems and advanced sensors.
• Dosing pumps and automatic valves that control the flow of cleaning solutions.
• A control cabinet that manages the entire cleaning process, integrated with the pneumatic system.
• Piping system and heat exchangers, allowing precise monitoring of temperature, flow, and pressure during the cleaning process.

Cleaning Process:

1. Pre-rinse – Conducted with clean water to remove production residues from the cleaned installation.
2. Main wash – Cleaning fluid (water with detergents) is pumped through the system, and its concentration is constantly monitored by a conductivity meter. The fluid is heated, and the temperature is controlled by sensors.
3. Final rinse – The process ends with rinsing with clean water, which removes any remaining detergents.
4. Disinfection – An optional step used in food, pharmaceutical, or cosmetic industries, ensuring the elimination of microorganisms from production surfaces.

User Interface:

The CIP station is equipped with an advanced yet intuitive user interface that significantly simplifies operation. The touchscreen provides the operator with real-time access to all necessary parameters such as temperature, flow, detergent levels, pH, or conductivity. Thanks to clear data visualization and precise controls, the cleaning process is fully optimized, and its monitoring is simple and effective.

Key Real-Time Monitored Parameters:

• Conductivity
• Tank level
• Pressure
• Turbidity
• Temperature
• pH
• Flow rate

Features of the Stationary CIP System:

• Automated Cleaning: The system is fully automated, minimizing the risk of human error and ensuring precise and repeatable cleaning results.
• High Efficiency: Ideal for large production plants where frequent machine and technological line maintenance is required, and downtime needs to be minimized.
• Resource Savings: CIP systems are designed for maximum water, chemical, and energy efficiency, reducing operational costs.
• Compliance with Sanitary Standards: Meets strict hygiene and safety requirements, ensuring full operational safety in the most demanding production environments.
• Modular Design: The CIP station can be flexibly adapted to the specific needs of the plant, both in terms of size and functions.

The stationary automatic CIP system offers a versatile and efficient solution for comprehensive cleaning of production systems, ensuring reliability and the highest hygiene standards.

The CIP station for conveyor belt cleaning is an advanced solution designed for the automatic and effective cleaning of conveyor belts, particularly those used in the food industry, including slaughterhouses and meat processing plants. In these sectors, maintaining the highest standards of hygiene and cleanliness is crucial to ensure food safety and eliminate the risk of microbiological contamination.

In many facilities, the belt cleaning process is still performed manually using pressure washers, which leads to high water consumption and makes the process time-consuming. Automatic CIP stations allow for a reduction in water usage by more than 50%, speeding up the cleaning process and ensuring more uniform results.

In slaughterhouses and meat processing plants, conveyor belts come into direct contact with raw meat, posing a high risk of microbiological contamination, including the growth of bacteria such as Salmonella or Listeria. Therefore, regular and thorough belt cleaning using advanced CIP stations is essential to ensure the safety of final products. The cleaning process occurs in a closed circuit, allowing for fast, efficient, and resource-saving removal of contaminants without the need to dismantle belt components.

Components of the CIP station for conveyor belt cleaning:

• Chemical tank with heating system and sensors.
• Pumps and valves controlling the flow of cleaning liquids and a system for monitoring detergent concentrations.
• Integrated control cabinet responsible for managing the cleaning process.
• Advanced HMI panel enabling intuitive control and monitoring of all process parameters.

Cleaning process:

1. Mechanical removal of residues – The process begins with the mechanical removal of larger product residues, such as meat and fat, from the belt surface using special brushes or scrapers.
2. Pre-rinse – After mechanically removing residues, clean water rinses the belt, eliminating any remaining contaminants. The water is then discharged into the waste system.
3. Main cleaning – Application of chemical solutions that precisely remove remaining contaminants and microorganisms, monitored by a conductivity system.
4. Final rinse – Clean water rinses the belt to remove detergent residues, preparing the belt for the next stages of production.
5. Disinfection – Essential in meat processing plants, where thorough cleaning and pathogen elimination is key to ensuring food safety.

User interface:

The CIP station is equipped with an advanced yet intuitive user interface that significantly simplifies operation. The touch screen provides the operator with access to all necessary parameters in real-time, such as temperature, flow, detergent levels, pH, and conductivity. Clear data visualization and precise controls ensure the cleaning process is fully optimized, and supervision is easy and effective.

Key parameters monitored in real-time:

• Conductivity
• Tank level
• Pressure
• Turbidity
• Temperature
• pH
• Flow

Benefits of using the CIP station for conveyor belt cleaning:

• Safety and hygiene: Regular cleaning of conveyor belts in meat processing plants and slaughterhouses minimizes the risk of microbiological contamination, ensuring the highest sanitary and hygienic standards, which are essential in the food industry.
• Resource savings: Thanks to the recirculation system and precise control of water and chemical usage, the station provides significant reductions in operating costs, which is especially important in large processing plants.
• Cleaning efficiency: With the closed-circuit system and precise detergent dosing, belt cleaning is fast and effective, minimizing production downtime.
• Versatility of use: The CIP station is the ideal solution for both smaller meat plants and large slaughterhouses, which require regular and thorough cleaning of conveyor belts.

All transport conveyors must be cleaned regularly to meet the highest quality standards. In meat plants, where hygiene is critical, conveyor belt cleaning is carried out multiple times a day.
