A portable CIP skid usually gets ordered after someone is tired of dragging hoses and scrubbing a fermenter through a 4-inch manway. Our units are built for that job: a compact tank package on casters that mixes, heats and circulates cleaning solution through the tank, hose and valve path you already have.
What the skid contains
At minimum, a caustic vessel, a rinse or acid vessel, a centrifugal pump, and a supply and return line with connections sized to your existing fittings. A hot water tank and electric or steam heating are added when the wash solution has to hold 140–176°F through a long loop. Everything wetted is 304 or 316L stainless, with sanitary clamps, butterfly valves and a spray ball matched to the vessel being cleaned.
Sizing the tanks and the pump
People often oversize the tank and undersize the pump. Solution volume gets you through the loop; pump flow is what actually wets the tank wall. A 50-gallon unit typically covers a 1–3 bbl brewhouse or a small pilot plant. A 100-gallon skid handles 5–10 bbl fermenters or several tanks on one circuit. Spray ball coverage usually needs 1.5–3 gpm per foot of tank circumference at 20–30 psi at the ball — check that before locking in the pump curve. Long return runs and plate-and-frame paths need more head, not more chemical.
How a cycle runs
Pre-rinse, caustic wash at temperature, intermediate rinse, acid wash where scale matters, final rinse, then sanitizer if the process calls for it. Temperature, flow, pressure and level can be watched locally on gauges or logged through a PLC with recipe steps and printouts.

Where these units run
Breweries and brewpubs, wineries and distilleries, dairy and beverage lines, sauce and liquid food plants, cosmetics and pharmaceutical process equipment. Requirements differ by product residue — protein soils need warmer caustic, sugar and starch rinse easier, and fats want a surfactant package. Tell us what the soil is and we build the cycle around it.
Questions we get
Can one charge clean several tanks? Yes, if the solution stays above temperature and the soils are compatible. Beyond two or three tanks, a dual-tank skid with a dedicated rinse vessel pays for itself in turnaround time.
Do I need a hot water tank? Only if you want a clean rinse or a pre-heat step. Otherwise the caustic vessel can be heated directly.
