INTRODUCTION
The TankJet M60 is designed to clean the inside surfaces of standard size wine barrels or other similar size drums,
vessels or containers using hot water. The TankJet M60 is an air motor driven type of tank washer. The air motor
drives a rotating shaft that is connected to a set of bevel gears that translate rotational motion to a final drive shaft
that rotates the nozzle head . The rotational movement of the nozzles and path of spray are indexed controlled with a
set of bevel gears. The solid stream nozzles mounted on the nozzle hub produce a spray that provides the scrubbing
action to clean the inside surface of the barrel. The maximum liquid pressure for the tank washer is 1,000 psi (70 bar)
at a maximum liquid pressure of 180°F (82°C). The typical air pressure to drive the air motor is 10 psi (.7 bar) to 20
psi (1.4 bar). The maximum allowable pressure for the air motor is 20 psi (1.4 bar).
The TankJet M60 comes with a set of valves mounted at the top of the cart handle. One valve is a high pressure
316SS valve needed to open and close the liquid line that supplies the nozzle head. The other valve is a trigger valve
needed to open and close the air line that supplies air to the air motor needed to provide rotational motion to the
nozzle head. The TankJet M60 must be only operated in the washing mode when the nozzle head is completely inside
the barrel . Never operate the TankJet M60 when outside the barrel or vessel . Always make sure liquid line is off by
closing the ball valve. Also, it is advisable to close the trigger valve to shut off the air line to the air motor
Another feature for the TankJet M60 is the portable wheel cart design that allows for easy movement of barrel washer
to install and remove the nozzle head from the barrel. This provides for an efficient and back saving method to install
and remove the nozzle head from the barrel .
This TankJet M60 is typically used with a pressure washer with a positive displacement pump. For safety reasons,
it is important to note that the TankJet M60 must only be used with a pressure washer or any other pump having a
properly operating unloader valve.
The minimum and maximum ambient temperature the TankJet M60 can be exposed to is +35°F to +125°F
(2°C to +52°C).
