The Butterworth Type LTQ automated tank cleaning machine provides 360° impact indexed coverage for the cleaning of the inside of tanks and process vessels.

The Butterworth Type MICRO100A automated tank cleaning machine provides 360° impact indexed coverage for the cleaning of the inside of tanks and process vessels.

The Butterworth Type DW automated tank cleaning machine provides directional impact cleaning of the inside of open top tanks.

There are times when a 360° impact indexed coverage of a vessel is not desired and more targeted cleaning is needed, such as when cleaning a spray drying column, smokestack, ribbon blender or cleaning machine oil from the outside of tanks during the manufacturing process. This is when the choice of a Butterworth Unidirectional machine should be made.

The Butterworth Type UBC rotating spray head projects sheets of water on a variety of spray patterns, using low volumes of water with considerably higher fluid impact values when compared to conventional static spray balls.

BE two-piece nozzles produce a full-cone spray, with angles ranging between 60° and 120°. The even spray distribution results from the design of the inner whirling vane. These nozzles can be used in applications where complete surface coverage is required. Models up to 1″ in thread diameter are machined. All other nozzles in this series are castings.

The Butterworth UBA Rotating Spray Ball is designed to distribute cleaning media in tanks ranging in size up to 22 feet (6.7 meters). The UBA is a single axis rotary spray ball that projects a predetermined spray pattern within a given tank geometry. The rotation of the spray ball is controlled mechanically to avoid over rotation, which would result in reduction of spray radius and impact values of the media.
