Washing and disinfection
Mekon RV-1 Pen Cleaner
Mekon RV-1 Pen cleaner – Effective washing float for pressure washing all pens from Ø 315 to Ø 500 without sinker tube, and is equipped with nozzles for disinfection after washing as standard.
The RV-1 runs under the bridles and lies low in the water to avoid unnecessary lifting of the flotation collar.
The cleaner connects to the service boat’s existing hydraulics and is operated by radio control. Customer feedback indicates that washing time will be approximately 30-45 minutes when cleaning a 120 m Ø 400 flotation collar under optimal conditions.
