Water Jetting Systems For Reusable Tanks, Totes, & Drum Cleaning

Intermediate Bulk Containers (IBCs) are reusable packaging that’s essential for transporting a wide range of bulk liquids and powders. To maintain product integrity, it’s critical to completely remove any residual material before refilling the container. Whether your IBCs are large or small, steel or plastic, NLB’s automated water jet cleaning systems deliver efficient, thorough cleaning with far less labor compared to manual methods.

At the heart of our water jetting systems for reusable tanks, totes, and drum cleaning are high-pressure pumps, capable of generating up to 40,000 psi, and 3D rotating heads that precisely direct the water jet. NLB offers a variety of pumps (diesel or electric) and 3D heads, providing different flow rates, and pressures, that utilize different water temperatures. As the 3D head rotates horizontally, the high-velocity nozzles are driven by the reaction force of the water to spin vertically, ensuring full interior surface coverage.
