FlexLink Chain washing unit User Manual

Chain Washing unit
A FlexLink standard solution 5686EN-1
Chain washing unit
The inline chain washing unit is designed to run con­tinuously when working with production lines that have a high degree of product spillage. The result is a cleaner chain that allows longer production runs without the need for CIP or routine maintenance.
The chain cleaner prevents product build up on the chain and allows continuous fault free running of the line with the need to stop the conveyor and remove the chain to clean by hand.
Supplied as a complete unit the chain washer can quickly be integrated into new conveyor lines or upgraded to existing conveyor lines in order to improve performance and reliability
