Low-pressure guns: Efficient cleaning for industrial needs

Low-pressure guns for the process industry are essential tools designed to meet high demands for efficient and hygienic cleaning. Made from durable materials such as stainless steel, they ensure efficient dirt removal and protect equipment from wear and tear.

With ergonomic design and safety features such as kickback protection, they optimize operator comfort and safety. When combined with tailored accessories, such as durable hoses and quick connectors, they provide a complete solution for industrial cleaning needs.

In the process industry where precision and hygiene are paramount, these spray guns ensure gentle and thorough cleaning without damaging equipment, extending service life and reducing maintenance costs. Their versatility in handling different cleaning tasks makes them an essential choice for those who want effective cleaning and protection of both equipment and the environment.

AFT low-pressure guns: Optimal protection with and without silencer

When choosing between our bestsellers AFT low-pressure gun ST3100, RL82, and low-pressure valve with molded-in ball valve, it’s essential to understand the difference in how they handle pressure and protect cleaning equipment. Choosing the right low-pressure gun depends on your specific needs and working conditions.

AFT low-pressure gun ST 3100

The AFT ST 3100 low-pressure gun is ideal for operators who need constant and powerful pressure for consistent cleaning tasks. The model is designed with both efficiency and ergonomics in mind, making it ideal for long-term use in demanding low-pressure environments.

A prominent feature of this spray gun is its trigger, which is equipped with an innovative damper. This damper ensures a soft shut-off that effectively prevents damage to the hose even when under high pressure, significantly extending hose life. In addition to minimizing damage to equipment, the design also protects other components from wear and tear.

For optimal results, a high-water volume paired with high pressure is recommended, and the inclusion of the silencer improves the ST 3100's capacity, making it a reliable tool for intensive cleaning.

AFT low-pressure gun RL82

The RL82-model offers an alternative approach to low-pressure cleaning with its focus on flexibility and customization. This spray gun has an adjustable nozzle that allows the user to change the jet shape and intensity depending on the specific cleaning task. With an operating pressure of up to 80 bar, the RL82 is still able to deliver powerful and efficient cleaning, making it suitable for a wide range of applications in the process industry.

Like the ST 3100, the RL82 also has an ergonomic design, ensuring it’s comfortable to use for extended periods. The flexible adjustment allows the operator to customize their cleaning approach and tackle different challenges effectively.

Low-pressure valve with cast-in ball valve

The low-pressure valve with cast-in ball valve is carefully engineered to improve durability and functionality in demanding industrial environments. The cast-in ball valve, protected by EPDM rubber resists corrosion and wear, extending the lifetime of the low-pressure valve and ensuring stable and reliable performance.

This robust construction allows it to withstand being dropped on the floor, among other things. The valve is ideal for low-pressure foam systems with pressures up to 60 bar and withstands temperatures up to 95°C, making it perfect for industrial cleaning.

The smooth and easy-to-clean surface together with the stainless-steel ball valve ensures long durability and high reliability. The valve design contributes to efficient cleaning by maintaining a stable flow, making it an indispensable tool in industrial cleaning processes.

Frequently asked questions

Woman who wonders

What accessories are recommended for optimal use of low-pressure guns?

For optimal use of low-pressure guns, choose accessories such as nozzles, lances and low pressure couplings that can withstand the pressure and temperature required for the job. Choose accessories according to the task at hand. The connectors are color-coded for appropriate water volume and spread: green for small, blue for medium and red for large. Choose nozzles and swirlers based on working pressure and purpose, whether it's cleaning, rinsing or cooling. A widespread is ideal for large surfaces, while a narrow spread is suitable for precise cleaning tasks. Make sure lances and couplings are adapted to your needs for efficiency and equipment lifetime.
