Alfa Laval Free Rotating Retractor cleaning device

The Alfa Laval Free Rotating Retractor is a high-efficiency retractable cleaning device that can enhance product safety while boosting uptime and productivity.

The cleaning-in-place device remains sealed off from the product area during production, flush with the vessel wall. The spray head slides out, expelling cleaning media in a 310°-up spray pattern across the vessel surface. Upon completion of the cleaning cycle, the spray head retracts and the vessel is production-ready.

The device removes residues from the interior surfaces of hard-to-clean vessels. It complies with FDA, EU and China regulations.

The cleaning device is claimed to deliver up to 35% savings in water, chemicals and time for every CIP cycle compared to conventional static spray ball technology.

Installation, operation and maintenance are simple due to the product’s streamlined construction. To fully automate operation, pair two or more of these cleaning devices and Alfa Laval ThinkTop sensing and control units with an existing CIP system.
