Sonic FT system - Tank and Container Drying

Until now companies that were concerned about residual moisture left behind after the cleaning process simply let these containers "air dry" or they used expensive compressed air. The Sonic FT system uses an ultra efficient blower to output 200˚F (93˚C) air, eliminating the need for in-line heaters and reducing drying time to ≤ 30 for most applications in support of quicker turnaround and increased production. The Sonic FT Tank Dryer requires less energy than air pressure fans with electric heaters while eliminating a potential issue specific to electric heating systems called "hot spot”; heating that can damage seals and gaskets within the system.

While many plants have an "abundance" of compressed air, it is expensive to generate and additional equipment is required to ensure the air delivered is dry and contaminate-free. The Sonic FT system eliminates those concerns as well.

The Sonic system can be customized per application within a 7½ to 50 HP (5kw to 37kw) consisting of only a connection hose or as a comprehensive system inclusive of air temperature monitoring, digital controls, HEPA filters, cart and acoustical enclosure for quiet operation. Materials of construction include an aluminum water-cooled housing, insulated plumbing and explosion-proof motors. The Sonic FT Tank Dryer can be integrated with your CIP system or as a stand-alone portable unit.

The Sonic FT Tank Dryer works by pumping clean, dry, pressurized air at 0.5 to 1.0 PSI (3.4 to 6.8 kPa) at temperatures of 150˚F to 200˚F (65˚C to 93˚C) to accelerate evaporation within the object being dried. It exchanges the entire system/circuit air volume at least every 30 seconds.
