The Alfa Laval Rotacheck Basic and Alfa Laval Rotacheck Plus are intelligent sensors that validate the proper function of the Alfa Laval Rotary Jet Head during the cleaning operation for tanks used in hygienic applications. These sensors provide a proven, reliable validation method that increases quality assurance in tank cleaning. The sensors accurately and precisely register, monitor and evaluate the rotation and impact of the rotary jet head.
Proven, reliable method to validate the proper function of the Toftejorg rotary jet head during CIP
- Safe, hygienic and validated tank cleaning
- Easy monitoring of rotary jet head operation
- Easy installation and maintenance
- Complies with 3-A standards and designed in accordance with EHEDG hygienic guidelines
Whenever any deviation from the original rotation or impact pattern is detected, it automatically sends an error signal, enabling the control system as well as the operator to take remedial action to restore optimal operation. Designed for use in all types of hygienic tanks, the Rotacheck Basic and Rotacheck Plus is approved to carry the 3-A symbol and designed according to European Hygienic Engineering & Design Group (EHEDG) guidelines. The Rotacheck system may also be used with purified water (PW) and water for injection (WFI) as well as in systems that are pressurized during Cleaning-in-Place (CIP) up to 0.3 bar. Both are approved for use in potentially explosive environments in Zone 0/20 in the product-wetted area and Zone 2/22 in the non-product-wetted area. The Alfa Laval Rotacheck is designed to fulfil the demands for tank cleaning validation in hygienic applications across the dairy, food, beverage, brewery, and pharmaceutical industries.
Verification of the rotation of rotary jet heads
The Alfa LavalRotacheck is an intelligent sensor that validates the rotation of the Toftejorg rotary jet heads during the tank cleaning operation. Designed for use in all types of hygienic tanks, it is approved to carry the 3-A symbol and the European Hygienic Engineering & Design Group (EHEDG) symbol.
It is available in two versions, Rotacheck Basic and Rotacheck+, both of which are approved for use in potentially explosive environments in Zone 0/20 in the product wetted area and Zone 2/22 in the non-product wetted area.
Safe, hygienic and validated tank cleaning
The Alfa Laval Rotacheck is built upon patented technology and mechanical design. It features a special sensor that accurately and precisely registers, monitors and evaluates the rotation and impact of the rotary jet head. Whenever any deviation from the original rotation or impact pattern is detected, it automatically sends an error signal, enabling the control system as well as the operator to take remedial action to restore optimal operation.
The Rotacheck system may also be used with PW (purified water) and WFI (water for injection) as well as in systems that are pressurized during CIP.
Easy rotary jet head monitoring
With Alfa Laval Rotacheck, plant operators and maintenance staff can easily monitor and verify proper rotary jet head function as well as safe and efficient tank cleaning operations. A visual indication light integrated into the field housing displays the status of the rotary jet head. Digital outputs enable effortless connection to any control or PLC-system, providing secure online monitoring of tank cleaning operations at the plant at all times.
Truly hygienic tank cleaning
The Rotacheck system uses the Alfa Laval Hygienic tank connection, which minimizes microbiological build-up and ensures a fully flushable process connection. EHEDG-approved and authorized to carry the 3-A symbol, the HTC connection is one of Alfa Laval’s new hygienic process connections.
Rotary jet head tank cleaning verification
The Alfa Laval Rotacheck system for rotary jet head tank cleaning verification and validation is available in two versions:
- Rotacheck+, an advanced system with a built-in function for validation of the rotary jet head.
- Rotacheck Basic, a standard system suitable for validating the rotation of the rotary jet head and for retrofitting of Rotacheck systems that are already installed.
