In a CIP system, there is a provision for supply and re-circulation of clean & soft water, hot water, detergent, acid and sanitizing solutions. There are following methods for preparation and supply of these items to the place of cleaning:
A well-equipped centralized CIP system has insulated tanks of suitable sizes for storing water, alkali, acid and sanitizing solution. These tanks contain arrangements for water feeding, chemicals dosing, heating along with provisions of level/volume,temperature, concentration and/or pH indicators. Generally tanks are made of stainless steel of SS-304 or SS-316 quality. Pumps, valve & piping is used to forward and return the solutions (Fig).
The balance tank is used for taking water. The detergents, acid or sanitizers are dosed in the cold water. The heating system of the equipment is used for heating the solution, which is circulated through the feed pump or other pump specially provided for this purpose.
