The KRF-42 is a multifunction machine that includes a device for rinsing of stainless steel kegs with-  two positions for kegs. The equipment is designed for the rinsing of kegs for beer, cider, wine and for other beverages, using semi-automatically operated valves and a pump.

Operating capacity : from twenty five up to fourty kegs per hour (rinsing and sanitizing).

Basic features:

  • The machine is made of stainless steel 1.4301 / AISI 304
  • The electric switchbox is made of lacquered steel sheet, optionally stainless steel (for surcharge)
  • Operation place for KEGs is made of polyethylene, plate thickness 20 mm
  • Connections of the KEGs with machine are made with the food hoses and the connection fittings
  • Pneumatically operated stainless steel piston valves with PTFE seals
  • Isolated 80 liter detergent tank with electric heating spiral and level sensor
  • Electric, steam or combined heating of the detergent – caustic or alcalic solution
  • Adjustable stainless steel feet for machine balance
  • Control via buttons, adjustment via color touch screen
  • Sensors to check the correct function of the machine
  • Components from world leading manufacturers (Siemens, Endress + Hauser, Sensit, etc.)

 

Features :

  • The machine is designed to the intensive rinsing inside of the KEG barrels
  • Performance from 35 up to 40 KEGs per hour *)
  • For all types of coupler fittings (A, D, G, M, S, U, Flat, Corb, Combi, etc.)
  • For all KEG sizes (volumes from 15 to 50 liters)
  • Alternate rinsing of walls and coupler fittings of KEGs
  • Automatic checking the correct function of the machine
  • Detergent quality monitoring (based on the number of rinsed KEGs)
  • Two washing programs, the intensity of rinsing or filling can be adjusted
  • Washing statistics

*) The performance of the machine depends on the actual settings of the rinsing and the filling processes

 

Technical parameters :

  • Power supply – 400 VAC
  • Power consumption – 9 kW, of which 8 kW electric heating
  • Volume of detergent tank – approx 120 liters
  • Dimensions – w x d x h – 1100 x 800 x 2150 mm
  • Weight – 285 kg

How the machine works :

Rinsing-sanitizing program :

  • Check the correct KEGs connection
  • Draining of rests from KEGs
  • Rinsing of the walls and fittings with cold water
  • Blowing out the cold water residue with sterile air
  • Rinsing of the walls and fitting with hot detergent
  • Blowing out of the cleaning solution from KEGs with sterile air
  • Rinsing of the walls and coupler fittings with hot water
  • Blowing out of rinse water with sterile air
  • Blowing of the KEG with sterile steam
  • Pressurizing of the KEGs with sterile steam
  • Sterilization inside space of the KEG
  • Blowing out steam residues with CO₂ / N₂
  • Pressurization KEG with CO2 / N2
  • Sound signal “End of rinsing”
