Abstract:
Washing equipment for automatically washing storage tanks, for example, such as milk storage tanks used in the dairy industry. The equipment includes automatic controls for providing a series of cycles for washing the tanks, such as a first rinse cycle, a detergent washing cycle, and a final rinse cycle.
