CIP Systems
CIP (cleaning in-place) is the commonly used method for plant cleaning during the production process where hygiene is, of course, paramount. Variable CIP systems are available for different cleaning procedures.
The diversity of products and processes calls for differentiated solutions for cleaning process plants. Variable CIP systems are available for different cleaning procedures within the production process where hygiene is paramount. We are always striving to find the optimum balance between chemicals, mechanics, temperature and residence time – with additional focus on environmental protection and downtimes. Using a modern CIP system ensures the optimum quality assurance and increases product quality.
CIP Recovery Systems
These CIP systems consist of various cleaning medium tanks for drinking water, cleaning solution and returned water. The system or tank size is adjusted to the cleaning cycles required. The number of cleaning systems installed determines the cleaning frequency, the simultaneous execution of operations and the number of objects. The systems are technically equipped and configured to meet the cleaning objectives defined.
Single Use Cleaning System with ECOCIP
The system consists of a detergent tank for the ready-made cleaning solution, pre-assembled on a base frame. The cleaning solution is circulated and heated up to the operating temperature. Conductivity measurement and in-line concentrate metering ensure that the required amount of detergent is added. The detergent flow rates are adjusted by the cleaning program. CIP modules are easy to integrate into the process and offer optimum solutions for demanding products.
VARICIP
In the VARICIP automation system, cleaning objectives are translated into recipes. The recipes contain target-dependent parameters:
- Start enabling and cleaning monitoring tasks
- Conductivity limit values
- Temperature limit values
- Turbidity monitoring tasks
- Flow rate setpoints
- Rinsing interval chains
as well as step-dependent parameters:
- Step function as a selection of configured steps
- Run and monitoring times
These blocks can be used to freely configure the cleaning sequences. A water blocker considerably reduces the water consumption during CIP. Trend curves are recorded to document the cleaning process. An event log in table form is created as a file for quality management purposes.
Detergent concentrate storage
A CIP station needs detergents – we also plan and execute this requirement. As a certified specialist company in accordance with § 19i WHG (federal water resources law) Tuchenhagen Dairy Systems is authorized to install concentrate storage tanks which conform to all legal and environmental requirements. We benefit from our long-standing experience in this field not only when designing concentrate draw off and exhaust air cleaning but also when calculating caustic, acid and additive metering rates – this also includes the generation of the necessary balance sheets.
