The Lightest, Most Powerful, Large Tank Cleaning Machine
The Alfa Laval GJ 8 provides the same flow as traditional, larger tank cleaners, but this new unit is lighter, shorter, and narrower for easier entry and maneuverability. It offers unparalleled ease of handling in a wide variety of tank cleaning applications.
The Alfa Laval GJ 8 does not require any power assists, because it is smaller in diameter than any other fluid driven unit with similar flow characteristics. It fits through small openings, while maintaining the flow required to clean larger vessels. The light weight and smaller size of the GJ 8 makes it easy to move and handle. The versatility of the pressure and flow of this machine makes it ideal for most large tank cleaning applications.

The Alfa Laval GJ tank cleaning devices are part of our highly acclaimed Gamajet product range. Alfa Laval technology combines pressure and flow to create high impact cleaning jets that are precision engineered to rotate in a precise, repeatable and reliable 360-degree pattern.
The unique design reduces your cost to clean and environmental footprint by minimizing the amount of water, energy and cleaning agents required to clean tanks. Using high-impact jet cleaning instead of traditional ineffective static spray ball reduces waste and resource consumption.
Due to the physical size of the Alfa Laval GJ PF, it is now possible to upgrade your cleaning device to a more efficient solution. The low profile Alfa Laval GJ PF fits though a 4” connection, making it possible to install the device into an existing tank top connection.
Alfa Laval Rotacheck validates the rotary jet heads cleaning process, reduces water consumption and product loss. Provides peace of mind.
The high-impact jet stream from the rotary jet head is preprogrammed to cover the inside of the tank in a continually denser pattern. This achieves a powerful mechanical impact with a low volume of water, acid or caustic. Most of the GJ rotary jet heads are capable of operating at both high and low pressures.
The Alfa Laval GJ range includes a unique, grease-lubricated gear to ensure that potentially damaging particles are not trapped in the gear during CIP recirculation. This innovative design ensures a smoother performance and reduces wear and tear.
A faster tank cleaning cycle also cuts energy consumption. Cleaning fluid flows through the nozzles in an automated, geared rotation around the vertical and horizontal axes. In the first cycle, the nozzles lay out a coarse pattern on the tank surface, with subsequent cycles progressively densifying the pattern over the course of eight cycles.
