Cleans Your 30 and 55 Gallon Drums in Minutes

Alfa Laval Gamajet GJ DB efficiently and effectively cleans 30 and 55 gallon drums that are often used to store and ship dangerous liquids and powders. Drum cleaning must be performed quickly, and with as little manpower as possible so companies can spend less time cleaning and more time producing. The Alfa Laval GJ DB includes everything needed to easily clean and empty drain-less containers. No other cleaning method provides the convenience, power and low flow capabilities. Say good-bye to costly and time-consuming outsourcing, the GJ GB ensures the entire drum interior is thoroughly cleaned, while utilizing the least amount of time, energy, chemicals, and water.

The Alfa Laval GJ DB is designed for operation at flow rates as low as 3 gallons per minute. Unlike other rotary jet heads, the unit applies 100% of the water flow to cleaning – not in powering the unit itself. With a single insertion of the easy-to-handle unit, 100% cleaning effectiveness is assured, along with complete liquid extraction. The GJ DB cleaning machine combines high performance impingement cleaning with integrated vacuum extraction, which now allows all shapes and sizes of tanks without drains to be easily cleaned and emptied from the top,through a 2″ or larger bung.

Specifications:

Inlet Connection: 0.5 in. NPT-Female
Construction/Design: Parts are machined from 316-L Stainless Steel investment castings or bar stock.
Impeller & Final Shaft: For increased wear resistance, the rotor shaft is plasma-sprayed with a Chromium Oxide coating on stainless steel.
Shaft & Gearbox Bushings: Turbine shaft thrust is absorbed by a Tungsten carbide bushing. Gear bushings are carbon filled polyphenylene sulfide.
Static Seals: O-Ring materials are selected for each application. EPDM is standard with Kalrez and Viton available. Other materials can be supplied on special order.
Dynamic Seals and Bearings: Rotary shaft and housing seals/bearings are spring-loaded, double-lipped and made of PTFE.They are reinforced for extra long wear and protection against leakage, abrasion and deposit build-up.
Nozzles: Standard nozzle sizes 0.060 (1.5 mm), 0.070 (1.7 mm) 0.075 (1.9 mm), 0.080 (2.0 mm).Other nozzle sizes are available upon request.
Drive Mechanism: The wash fluid enters the GJ DB at the inlet collar where it encounters and spins turbine blades. The turbine blades are attached to the top of the drive or rotor shaft. The bottom of this shaft is connected to the inside of a sealed, robust planetary gearhead which then turns the body in the horizontal plane and the nozzles in the vertical plane.
Planetary Gearhead: The sealed planetary gearhead has an external casing made of steel, surface-anodized to become stainless. This sealed gearhead is located inside the gearbox, which itself is sealed, and thus does not require any lubricant. All internal gearhead parts are hardened sintered steel.
Lubricant: A food grade lubricant is inside the sealed gearhead casing.
