CHOOSING A TANK WASHING NOZZLE

Adequate coverage and effective scrubbing are of prime importance in bottle, drum, and tank
washing. Choosing from the variety of tank washing nozzles can be confusing. In selecting
BETE nozzles you should consider the following vessel characteristics and nozzle design
criteria: size and shape of vessel to be cleaned, vessel opening, type of material to be
removed, and spray coverage.

Size and Shape of Vessel to be Cleaned

BETEs tank washing nozzles can be used to clean, wash, and rinse every size vessel from
small bottles, moderately sized tanks, to railroad tankers.

The TW series is the best choice for cleaning small bottles, kegs, and barrels due to its compact
design. Medium-sized tanks up to 7.9m are best cleaned using the HydroWhirl S, HydroWhirl

Poseidon , or the CLUMP series because of their omni-directional spray.
Where higher impact and larger coverage is needed, BETE's tank washing machine, the
HydroWhirl Orbitor, is the perfect choice.
