Traversing Shower Systems

Applications VersaKleen traversing shower systems are designed for effectiveand efficient cleaning of forming, pressing and dryer fabrics. The VersaKleen shower system uses less water than full-width showers, minimizes mist, reduces water load in press nips, andeliminates wet streaks on dryer fabrics.

u

Increased productivity and uptime Better cleaning for new fabrics and furnishes Clean, permeable fabrics are essential to consistently produce aquality sheet. The new forming and press fabric designs must be kept cleaner to maintain drainage needed to produce a uniform, high quality sheet. At the same time, increased use ofrecycled furnish means higher levels of contaminants,especially hard-to-remove materials like stickies. The VersaKleen traversing shower system was designed forconditions like these. Depending on cleaning requirements, the VersaKleen system uses up to five water jets or fans to dislodgeand wash contaminants off the fabric. The high-pressure, low-volume nozzles provide thorough and efficient cleaning. u System is designed for specific machine configuration and width. u Shower speed is synchronized to fabric speed. VersaKleen D
™ Systems For use in applications where debris collection is necessary in the dryer section. Benefits include: u Uses extremely high-pressure, low-volume water to removethe most stubborn contaminants – without streaking the sheet or damaging the dryer fabric. VersaKleen DPF u Withstands temperatures to 300°F (149°C) – no cooling isrequired for most applications. u Lower water and power consumption than full-widthshower systems. u Automatically detects plugged nozzles or ruptured hoseand switches to a new nozzle bank, when used with theUnigy
™ and HSF
™ Systems VersaKleen DPF is for dryer, press, and forming applicationsrequiring low speed cleaning. The HSF version is for forming applications that require high speed cleaning. The VersaKleen traverses between 0.5" – 120" (12 mm – 3048 mm) per minute.Benefits include: u More complete and consistent forming, press, and dryerfabric cleaning improves productivity and product quality.
™ u Substantially reduced water consumption and mist,especially on top wire formers. pump system. u Includes a self-contained water filter, safety shut-offsolenoid valves and pressure relief valve. u Robust, compact design including stainless steel structure,Servo motor coupled to lead screw. No traversingelectronics, chains, or belts. u A simple mechanical debris collection system is availablewith all VersaKleen systems.
