BIRW190A Bolondi High-Flow Rotary Head | Tank Cleaning

BIRW190A – Bolondi High-Flow Rotary Spray Head – Stainless Steel Build

The Bolondi BIRW190A (RW190A series) is a heavy-duty, water-motor driven rotary spray head engineered for efficient and repeatable internal cleaning of medium-to-large tanks, IBCs (Intermediate Bulk Containers), and industrial process vessels. Manufactured in Reggio Emilia, Italy, the BIRW190A combines industrial-grade performance with hygienic stainless steel construction. Designed to withstand high-pressure wash cycles, it excels at removing hardened residues, scale, and byproducts in demanding industrial environments.

Constructed entirely from corrosion-resistant stainless steel, the BIRW190A offers long-term durability even when exposed to aggressive detergents, chemicals, hot water, and CIP sanitizing solutions. Its rugged build makes it ideal for sectors such as food and beverage production, chemical processing, wastewater treatment, petrochemical operations, and industrial production facilities where uptime, hygiene, and regulatory compliance are essential.

How It Works

Hydraulic Water-Motor Drive System

The BIRW190A uses a hydraulic water-motor that converts fluid pressure into controlled rotary motion—eliminating the need for external power sources or mechanical gearing. As pressurized cleaning fluid enters the unit, the motor drives a balanced set of jet arms equipped with high-velocity nozzles. These nozzles project powerful jets in a full 360° pattern, ensuring complete internal surface coverage, including corners, seams, and difficult-to-reach areas.

Dual Cleaning Action

• Mechanical Impact: Breaks apart hardened residues, scale, and biofilms.
• Hydraulic Flushing: Washes loosened debris out of the tank or vessel.

This combined cleaning effect shortens cycle times, reduces chemical usage, and improves operational efficiency—resulting in lower operating costs and higher throughput.

Performance & Operation

High-Flow, High-Pressure Design

The BIRW190A is optimized for moderate-to-high flow rates, making it suitable for permanent CIP installations or portable wash systems. Its compact size allows it to pass through standard tank openings, yet it delivers cleaning power sufficient for large industrial containers.

Low-Maintenance Engineering

• No lubrication required
• No electrical connections needed
• No complex mechanical gear sets
• Fewer moving parts = reduced downtime

This results in minimal maintenance requirements, reduced service intervals, and long-term reliability.

Industry Applications

Common Use Cases

• Food & Beverage: Fermentation tanks, storage tanks, mixing vessels
• Chemical Processing: Reactors, intermediate storage containers
• Wastewater Treatment: Sludge tanks, holding vessels
• Petrochemical & Industrial: IBCs, large process tanks, industrial containers
• CIP Wash Systems: Automated and manual cleaning setups
