Barrel Washer/Rotator

RGB's Barrel Washing System is designed for use with portable steel barrel racks. The rack holding the barrels is fork lifted over the roller frame, and then lowered so each barrel sits on four rollers. The rack drops below and away from the barrels.

The barrels are turned to the six o'clock position to dump the lees. The lees can be separated and claimed prior to washing if desired.

Once the barrels are rotated to the 4 o'clock position the spray ball is inserted. The barrels are then rotated back to the 6 o'clock position with the washer wands sitting firmly on the frame of the washer. Turn on the water and commence the washing cycle.

After the barrels are cleaned, reverse the procedure. To remove the barrels from the wheels, raise the rack with the forklift so that it picks up the barrels, perfectly centred.

Our system offers the following advantages:

1. This system will handle barrels stored in any commonly known racks or cradles - RGB, Falland, Lyco, Willem etc.
2. It can be used as a barrel rotator as well as a washer.
3. Eliminates manual handling concerns associated with this process.
4. The steel frame is hot dip galvanised and the draining vents made of stainless steel (vents are removable for cleaning purposes).
5. The barrels are washed at a convenient working level without the need to actually lift the barrels out of the rack.
6. Washer wands are provided with spray heads (optional), all you do is provide the water source.
7. These units are extremely well priced in comparison to other systems on the market. No frills, just effective.
8. Large or small, this system will give you the barrel washing efficiency you are after.
