SRS Engineering offers the TW-Series (tote washer / tank washer) designed to work with metal or plastic totes or tanks with maximum opening of 80.
These heavy duty automatic tote washing systems (TW-Series or CTW-Series -designed for larger volume washing), were specifically designed to wash interior surfaces of totes, tanks, mixers, churns, and kettles. The TW-Series washer was designed for cleaning applications in pharmaceutical, food, chemical, coatings, paint, resin, and petroleum industries to effectively remove paint and coatings, adhesives, inks and dyes. (For optional exterior surface washing applications see the MW-Series washer) The TW-Series washer can wash up to 80″ fixed and non fixed kettles, IBCs, totes, tanks, and mixer tanks in both metal or plastic construction. The high pressure pumps and high impingement jet spray nozzles are designed to remove even the most difficult residues from containers including cured resins and paints as well as cured road paint (Water &Solvent Based). The TW-Series is used in solvent, caustic, and water wash systems and utilizes Closed-Loop configurations to minimize waste water or solvent.
SRS Engineering’s TW-Series Applications:
- Tote washing
- Tank washing
- IBC washing
- Mixer washing
- Kettle washing

An easy to use, set up menu provides the operator with the ability to program a wash and rinse cycle into the PLC microprocessor logic controller allowing the system to operate automatically. The controller monitors a series of relays and contacts to verify proper liquid levels, flows, pressures, container security and proper grounding, before starting the cycle. Any fault condition is diagnosed and clearly displayed on the control panel to ensure operator safety and ease of operation. The system automatically shuts off in the event of a fault condition or at the end of the cycle.
