Orbitor
Media Lubricated - Stainless Steel
The stainless steel Orbitor is a self lubricated, self cleaning orbital tank washing machine which has been developed with the co-operation of a major international company.

Initially aimed at the industrial market, its unique design and simplicity of operation and maintenance, makes it  ideally suited for use in the more rigorous marine environment.

It is a turbine driven machine with the cleaning medium passing through the machine before being delivered to the nozzles as high impact jets.

Due to the internal gearing the high speed of the turbine is immediately reduced allowing the jets sufficient dwell time on the area to be cleaned.

The Orbitor can be tailored to suit individual customer requirements with a selection of speeds and nozzle sizes available depending on the size of the tanks and the medium being cleaned.

It is ideally suited for use with hot water and due to its very low starting torque it can be used with low supply pressures.

The Orbitor can be supplied as a fixed or portable machine and can easily be utilised as a multi-level unit in Chemical Carriers. This application is an ideal solution for cleaning horizontal corrugations, difficult structures and anywhere where 100% cleanliness is desired.

As each Orbitor on a multi-level unit is independently driven, a malfunction on a single machine does not affect any of the other machines, thus still assuring proper tankwashing in contrary to when using single nozzle machines.

The marine version of the machine will normally be supplied as a twin nozzle unit but is available with four nozzles should a denser wash pattern be required. The top connection will be a standard 1 1/2" BSP male but can be altered to customer requirements.
