Operation
Chemidisc has a unique ball bearing free design, meaning no shedding of metal bearing debris and no failure to rotate. Chemidisc has only one moving part, the rotating disc which rides friction free on a hydraulic bearing which instantly converts the wash fluid into a sphere of fast moving droplets, distributing the fluid in a complete and uniform manner. Total surface cover is achieved as fast moving, high power droplets simultaneously reach the entire surface of the tank, inlet pipe and overhead nozzles where contamination frequently occurs.
Applications
The Chemidisc range is available in a wide variety of sizes and is designed for use in harsh chemical environments, as a Hastelloy alternative and in glass lined vessels. These spray cleaners are constructed in carbon filled PTFE dissipate static electricity in potentially explosive atmospheres. Pure PTFE compliant Chemidiscs are used in many pharmaceutical and other applications where the cleaning solution is corrosive to stainless steel. PEEK is available for nuclear and specialist applications. The Chemidisc cost effectiveness and reliability is specified by end users, OEMs and contract design companies.
