CY-SS17 Telescopic Tank Cleaning Washer | Retractable Spray Nozzle
- Flush-mounted design, no product contamination
- Automatic extension & retraction
- Ideal for closed or restricted tanks
- 180° high-impact spray coverage
- Low-pressure CIP operation (1.8–4 bar)
- Durable 316L stainless steel construction
Product Overview:
CY-SS17 Telescopic Tank Cleaner is an innovative retractable spray nozzle designed for efficient and thorough tank cleaning, especially in applications where internal placement is challenging.
Its unique telescopic mechanism ensures comprehensive cleaning without permanent internal obstruction, making it ideal for maintaining the highest standards of hygiene and operational efficiency.
How It Works:
Mounted flush with the tank wall or lid, CYCO CY-SS17 sits completely hidden during normal operation, its nozzle retracted and sealed within the housing. When your CIP cycle begins, and fluid pressure reaches 1.8 bar, the telescopic rod automatically extends, deploying the rotating spray nozzle into the vessel interior.
The nozzle sweeps a full 180° arc, delivering consistent rotating jet coverage across the tank walls, bottom, and hard-to-reach zones. Once pressure is released, the rod retracts instantly, restoring a smooth, flush internal surface with zero residue risk.
Key Features:
- Installs Flush, Stays Hidden
When not in use, the nozzle retracts fully into its housing, maintaining a smooth, hygienic tank interior with no internal obstruction.
- Auto-Extends Under Pressure
At 1.8 bar, the telescopic arm deploys automatically. No manual activation, no external controls needed.
- 180° Rotating Spray Coverage
The rotating nozzle head sweeps the full interior arc, covering tank walls and hard-to-reach zones up to 1.5m in diameter.
- Hygienic Material Construction
316L stainless steel body, PEEK bearings, and fluorinated O-rings, engineered for CIP-compatible, corrosion-resistant service life.

Applications:
CY-SS17 telescopic tank cleaning washer is widely used across various industries for critical tank and vessel cleaning, including:
• Food & Beverage Industry: For hygienic cleaning of processing tanks, storage vessels, and pipelines.
• Pharmaceutical Industry: Ensuring sterile conditions in reactors and mixing tanks.
• Biotechnology & Fermentation: Maintaining cleanliness in bioreactors and fermenters.
• Petrochemical Industry: Cleaning storage tanks and reaction vessels.
• Spray Drying Chambers & Cyclones: Efficient cleaning of internal surfaces.
• Fluidized Beds, Reactors, Storage Tanks, and Pipelines: Versatile cleaning for diverse industrial equipment.
Performance Curve:
At the recommended operating pressure of 2 bar, the SS17-φ2.5 nozzle delivers approximately 15 L/min. Flow rate increases progressively to ~26 L/min at 6 bar. For most CIP applications, operating within the 2–4 bar range offers the optimal balance of cleaning impact and water efficiency.
FAQs
Q1. Can the CY-SS17 be used in a pressurized vessel?
CY-SS17 is designed for CIP cleaning cycles where pressure is applied intermittently. Please contact our team with your vessel pressure specs for a compatibility assessment.
Q2. What connection sizes are available?
Connection specifications are customized per customer requirements. We support a range of standard and non-standard fittings. Specify your inlet size and thread type when requesting a quote.
Q3. Is the CY-SS17 telescopic tank cleaning nozzle suitable for acidic or alkaline cleaning agents?
Yes. The nozzle is compatible with water, weak acid solutions, and weak alkali solutions, covering most standard CIP chemical programs.
Q4. How does the nozzle retract after cleaning?
Retraction is fully automatic and pressure-driven. When the fluid supply stops and pressure drops below the activation threshold, the telescopic rod returns to its housing position without any manual intervention.
Q5. What tank diameter can the CY-SS17 tank cleaner effectively?
CY-SS17 covers cleaning diameters up to 1.5 meters with its 180° rotating spray pattern.
