UBX is a very compact product whose design provides an especially accurate cleaning of the upper area of the tank around the inlet pipe. This is accomplished by a larger rotating head and straight jets with a well-studied and appropriate orientation.
Because of the low flow values, the simple design, and the high-quality surface finish, UBX tankwashers are preferred in applications such as washing small-volume tanks in pharmaceutical processes. The rotation is obtained by liquid reaction forces, while the head rotates over a thin liquid film that is self-cleaning. The connection can be threaded or with a standard PNR clip for easy disassembly and cleaning.
PNR Italia is introducing its classic products made of MDT material (magnetically detectable thermoplastics) and specifically PPh (polypropylene homopolymer) on the market.
MDT compounds are created to be detected by any detector, even when present in very small parts, making them suitable for metal replacement. Unlike compounds loaded with ferromagnetic powders, MDT compounds are traceable by all metal detectors on the market (both fixed magnet and balanced coil ones). Furthermore, the MDT compounds do not use steel fibres or metal powders or contain carbon, graphite or carbon black fibres. Thanks to these characteristics, components manufactured with MDT do not release powders or particles that are difficult to confine in operation and, therefore, are capable of dispersing in the working atmosphere and remotely contaminating the process or finished products. MDT products are suitable for contact with food and are produced in dark blue colour to be better identified in any circumstance.
