Cleaning systems – industrial cleaning technology for demanding production environments
Professional cleaning systems play a decisive role in industrial manufacturing when it comes to product quality, plant availability and process safety. Whether in food processing, concrete production or pharmaceutical manufacturing, hygiene standards and production cycles cannot be reliably maintained without high-performance cleaning technology.
This is precisely where WALTER Cleaningsystems comes in. As a manufacturer of industrial cleaning equipment, WALTER has been developing and manufacturing cleaning systems for over 50 years that are designed for real production conditions: modular in design, robust in continuous operation and adaptable to industry-specific requirements. All systems are designed, built and tested in Germany.
The product portfolio covers the full range of modern cleaning technology: from high-pressure pump units and automated foam cleaning systems to rotating nozzle systems, mobile pressure cleaning units and BFM® fitting systems. The decisive factor is the interaction between cleaning media, mechanical components, control systems and application-specific design.
Advantages of WALTER cleaning systems
- Modular and adaptable WALTER cleaning systems are modular in design. Individual components such as nozzle systems, dosing units, control systems and pump units can be adapted to existing production environments – without complete system modifications.
- Suitable for use across industries WALTER cleaning technology is used in hygiene-sensitive food production facilities as well as in concrete production, pharmaceutical manufacturing or the cosmetics industry. WALTER configures industrial cleaning equipment so that it precisely matches the respective requirements.
- Reproducible cleaning results Automated cleaning systems operate with defined parameters: pressure, temperature, exposure time and flow pattern. As a result, they deliver consistent results with every cycle – regardless of operating personnel or production shift.
- Resource-efficient in operation WALTER reduces water and chemical consumption to the optimum minimum for the application. This lowers operating costs and supports the sustainability goals of production facilities – measurably and documentably.
- Service throughout the entire life cycle From needs analysis through assembly and commissioning to maintenance and spare parts supply: WALTER supports customers throughout the entire life cycle of the cleaning systems.
The product portfolio – cleaning technology for every requirement
WALTER offers a coordinated portfolio of industrial cleaning equipment. Depending on the application, degree of soiling and automation requirements, different systems are used.
High-pressure cleaning systems
WALTER high-pressure cleaning systems reliably remove stubborn soiling while protecting materials. The pump units deliver constant working pressure with optimized water consumption – as a stationary central system or compact single unit. All units are modular in design and can be adapted to individual pressure and flow rate requirements. As industrial cleaning equipment, they are designed for continuous operation in harsh production environments.
Suitable for: concrete mixing plants, truck mixers, production plants, surface cleaning
Foam cleaning and disinfection systems
Foam adheres where water runs off immediately – and this is precisely what makes foam injectors one of the most effective cleaning technologies for the food industry. WALTER foam cleaning systems ensure longer exposure times, better surface wetting and more thorough cleaning results. The range extends from mobile foam units to permanently installed systems with automatic dosing – ideal for industrial disinfection systems.
Suitable for: food production, meat processing, dairies, pharmaceuticals
Container cleaning systems
The cleaning of containers, tanks, IBCs and drums places special demands on cleaning systems: Every internal surface must be fully reached and the process must be reproducible. WALTER industrial cleaning equipment operates either with rotating nozzle heads or immersion systems – depending on the container type and degree of soiling. Control is automated and documented.
Suitable for: chemicals, pharmaceuticals, food, cosmetics, non-food
Nozzle systems (RD series)
Rotating nozzle systems are the core component of many WALTER cleaning systems. They generate a uniform, high-energy cleaning jet that covers the internal wall of the container 360°. Available in various sizes and material versions (stainless steel, PTFE-coated) for hygiene-sensitive and chemically aggressive environments.
Suitable for: internal tank cleaning, reactor cleaning, process containers
Mobile units and flexible cleaning solutions
Not every application requires a permanently installed system. WALTER mobile industrial cleaning equipment brings professional cleaning technology exactly where it is needed: mobile high-pressure units, mobile foam stations, hose rewinders and compact cleaning units. Robust, low-maintenance and designed for harsh everyday industrial use.
Suitable for: open plant cleaning, flexible production environments, maintenance operations
BFM® fitting
BFM® fittings are the safe alternative to conventional hose connections. The flexible sleeve system can be installed and removed without tools – drastically reducing downtime during maintenance and cleaning. The sleeves are FDA-compliant and certified for use in the food and pharmaceutical industries.
Suitable for: food, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, bulk material processing
Which industries are WALTER cleaning systems suitable for?
Food industry
Hygiene requirements, short downtimes and safe product changeovers set the pace. WALTER is active in this sector with resource-efficient cleaning technology, customized systems and permanently installed nozzle systems for containers, mixers and other operating facilities.
Concrete industry
The cleaning of truck mixers, planetary mixers, twin-shaft mixers and pan mixers places special demands on industrial cleaning equipment: abrasive media, short time windows and harsh operating conditions. WALTER has developed specialized cleaning systems for the concrete industry that prove their reliability in continuous operation.
Pharmaceuticals and cosmetics
In pharmaceutical and cosmetics production environments, reproducible cleaning is often subject to validation requirements. WALTER provides support with automated cleaning solutions and robust components that can be integrated into validated processes.
Non-food and other industries
Reliable cleaning technology is also essential in chemical, paint and personal care production. WALTER offers process-reliable cleaning systems and proven industrial cleaning equipment for stationary mixers, dissolvers and tanks.
WALTER cleaning systems – modular, robust, application-specific
A good cleaning system is more than the sum of its components. The decisive factor is the interaction between system geometry, cleaning media, spray pattern, control system and process safety. This is precisely why WALTER Cleaningsystems is strongly positioned as an application-specific solution provider in the field of industrial cleaning technology.
As a family-run manufacturer of industrial cleaning equipment, WALTER has been developing robust, modular and service-oriented solutions Made in Germany for decades.
