Mobile Three-Tank CIP Systems for Beverage and Dairy Plants
When a production line needs reliable cleaning between batches, a mobile CIP system offers flexibility without tying up floor space. Our three-tank stainless steel units are built for dairies, breweries, and beverage plants that require separate wash, rinse, and sanitize cycles. The mobile frame allows movement between process areas, which suits plants with multiple filling lines or seasonal changes.
What a Mobile Three-Tank CIP System Does
Clean-in-place (CIP) removes product residue from tanks, pipes, fillers, and heat exchangers without dismantling. A three-tank configuration typically separates alkaline wash, acid wash, and rinse water. Some plants add a fourth tank for sanitizer or recovered water. The mobile skid carries the tanks, pump, heat exchanger, and controls on a stainless steel frame. We build these units for dairies, beverage producers, and breweries that need to move cleaning capacity between process areas.
How the Cleaning Cycle Works
The process starts with a pre-rinse to flush loose soil. Then a heated alkaline solution circulates through the circuit at a set flow and temperature. After the wash step, an intermediate rinse removes detergent. An acid wash follows if mineral scale is a concern. A final rinse and sanitizing step complete the cycle. Temperature, flow, and conductivity are monitored at key points. The control system logs cycle data for traceability. We typically recommend a supply pump sized for the largest circuit and a return pump to maintain back pressure.
Typical Applications
These systems clean fermenters, bright beer tanks, pasteurizers, fillers, mixers, and transfer lines. In dairy plants, they handle milking lines, raw milk tanks, and pasteurizers. Beverage producers use them for syrup rooms, carbonators, and filling valves. Sauce and liquid food processors rely on CIP for kettles and holding tanks. Cosmetics and pharmaceutical plants may require additional documentation and surface finish verification.

| Power supply | 380V/50Hz or 480V/60Hz, 3-phase |
Selection Factors
Choose tank capacity based on the volume of cleaning solution needed for the largest circuit and the number of circuits cleaned per shift. A three-tank system is common for plants that alternate alkaline and acid washes. If you clean multiple products with different soil types, consider a four-tank setup with dedicated rinse and sanitizer tanks. Pump selection depends on pipe diameter, total circuit length, and pressure drop. Heating capacity must match the temperature rise and flow rate. For steam heating, we need your steam pressure and condensate return details.
FAQ
Can the system be moved between buildings? Yes, the mobile frame includes casters and lifting points. For outdoor movement, we recommend a covered frame and IP-rated controls.
How do you verify cleaning effectiveness? We recommend ATP swabs or conductivity checks after the rinse step. The PLC can log temperature and flow to support your verification protocol.
What stainless steel grade should I choose? 304 works for most dairy and beverage applications. 316L is preferred for high-chloride environments or pharmaceutical production.

Tell us your industry and processed products, tank and piping details (diameters, lengths, number of circuits), required cleaning capacity (circuits per shift), heat source (electric or steam), desired automation level, stainless steel grade, and installation location. We will recommend the tank volumes, pump size, and control configuration for your plant. Our engineers can review your P&ID and provide a factory-direct quote.
We ordered a complete peanut butter processing line, and overall we’ve been very happy with it. The equipment arrived well packed and everything was installed and tested without major issues. The line runs smoothly, and the mixing and processing have been consistent. Our peanut butter comes out with a good texture, and the equipment is not difficult for our operators to use and clean. The support from the supplier was also helpful during setup. So far, it has been a good investment for our production.
We’ve been using this mixing tank for our chocolate production and so far it has worked really well. The mixing is consistent, temperature control is good, and it’s easy to clean. Our operators have had no issues using it. Overall, we’re very happy with the tank.
We’ve been using these mixing tanks for our production for several years. Every year, we usually add a few more tanks as our business grows, and the quality has always been very good. The tanks have been reliable and have worked well for our daily production. We’ve had a good experience with the equipment and the service, so we’ve continued coming back for more.
We ordered 2 mobile storage tanks and 2 mobile powder tanks for our production. Everything arrived in good condition and was packed well. The tanks are solid and easy to move around, which is really convenient for our daily work. The powder tanks have also been working well for storing and handling our ingredients. Overall, we’re very happy with the equipment and the service. Thanks for the great support!
