System Design
In successful operation since 1998:
1 x Fully Automatic 3" Bag-in-Box Single Line Pigging System. Line runs circa. 120m (360ft) delivering syrup to a holding tank from which it is packaged into the Bag-in-Box container used for draught dispensing of the soft drinks.
The tanks and pipeline are cleaned using a full, hot caustic CIP. During each cycle of the CIP the Pig, Pig Housing, Launch Valve, Receive/Return Station are cleaned Usage :- The system is used up to 20 times per week depending on production requirements and product variations
Pig Performance
One of the best indications on the performance of a pigging system is how long the Pig operates before being replaced. The first pig was replaced after 18 months. The spares usage, for three years, was 8% of the original purchase price.
