40,000 LPH GEA 4-Tank (3,000L) 1-Channel Automatic CIP System Plant

Description

The used GEA 4-Tank Automatic CIP System is a high-capacity, single-channel Clean-In-Place plant designed for efficient, fully automated cleaning of dairy and food-processing lines, pasteurisers, tanks, fillers, and transfer pipework. Rated for approximately 40,000 LPH circulation flow, this industrial CIP unit is powered by Alfa Laval LKH 45 stainless-steel centrifugal pumps (7.5 kW, 145 mm impellers) delivering reliable cleaning velocities to ensure hygienic compliance and effective soil removal across large process circuits. The system comprises three stainless steel CIP tanks (each approx. 3,000 litres) configured for hot water, caustic detergent, and rinse or recovery solutions, allowing full wash sequence automation including pre-rinse, caustic wash, intermediate rinse, sterilisation, and final rinse cycles. The used CIP plant remains installed on site and is sold as-is, non-operational due to full factory closure, representing a cost-effective opportunity for dismantling and relocation for refurbishment or recommissioning.
