Clean-In-Place

Clean in Place (CIP) vessels are an important component of every cleaning program.  Clean-in-place is the process of cleaning equipment without disassembly or having to transport it to a different location.  It comes with several benefits over the traditional manual cleaning.

Clean-in-place has become the industry standard method for cleaning because it eliminates a majority of the human error element, saves you money on chemicals, and reduces your exposure to harmful chemicals. In the brewing industry, the maintenance and cleaning of brewhouse equipment becomes a simple task with the introduction of CIP vessels.

Clean-in-place vessels use several holding tanks to store their chemical solutions.  The chemicals are pumped out of the storage tanks and into the tanks you are cleaning.  Typically, a spray ball is used within the tank to coat all the interior surfaces with the chemicals.  The chemicals that are used to clean the tank are pumped back out and into the CIP storage tank to be used several more times before being replaced.

Spectac International manufactures CIP vessels according to customer requirements and each one is fitted with PLC (programmable logic controllers) Controls for efficient, automated management of the cleaning process.
