The BRM Compact is a compact, mobile barrel cleaner with water drive for cleaning the inside of barrels with a capacity of 225 to 600 litres. This unit, unique worldwide, is designed for maximum efficiency. It consists of an HRK cleaner, a compact mobile frame and an optionally available loading ramp.

The barrels remain on the rack during cleaning; the barrel cleaner is inserted directly into the barrel from below. The very compact, spherical high-pressure spray head can be inserted quickly and without damage through the bunghole (larger than Ø 38 mm), and the dirty water drains out through the bunghole. A compact water turbine uses the energy of the cleaning water to drive the cleaning head at the same time – the unit works without a cable, and cleaning starts as soon as the ball valve is opened. The head rotates at 10–30 rpm and covers the entire inside of the barrel (360°) with its two nozzles. The speed can be varied via the water volume and adapted to the available water volume with different nozzles. Depending on the degree of soiling, a complete cycle takes approx. 3–5 minutes. Thanks to the modular design, the individual components can be replaced, so the unit is quickly ready for use again after servicing. The BRM Compact is durable, easy to maintain and runs very quietly. Contact us directly to find out more about accessories and spare parts.
