1. Introduction
The Scanjet BIO 10 is a highly versatile machine designed for use in hygienic
applications, as well as other industrial applications. The unique design makes
it easy to install, use and maintain as well as reduces the pressure drop through
the machine.
The BIO 10 is available with 4 nozzles, but a special configuration with 2 extra
nozzles on the body enables cleaning of the outside of the machine and provides
unmatched self cleaning capability.
This manual has been prepared as a guide for persons who will be operating and
maintaining the tank cleaning machine. The key to long machine life will always
be carefully planned maintenance, if this is properly executed the Scanjet BIO 10
will keep servicing for years.

2. Safety Instructions
• If the machine is used in potentially explosive atmospheres then tapes or
joint sealing compounds, which are electrical insulators, must not be used
on threads or joints, unless an electrical connection is otherwise established
to ensure an effective grounding. In addition, connection pipe work must be
electrically conductive and grounded to the tank structure. The resistance
between the nozzle and the tank structure should not exceed 20 000
Ohm. This is important in order to avoid any build up of static electricity
in the machine. For further information see CENELEC R044-001 Safety of
Machinery, guidance and recommendations to avoid any hazard due to static
electricity.
• When the equipment is operating in potentially explosive atmospheres,
measures have to be taken to verify that the tank is inert at all times during
cleaning operation. This is to avoid sparks and possible explosions since fluids
moving at high velocities through air causes electrostatic build up in the
media. As an extra precaution the cleaning media could be made conductive.
• The machine should be installed in accordance with national regulations for
safety and other relevant regulations and standards.
• Precautions should be made to prevent starting of the tank cleaning
operation while personnel are inside the tank or otherwise can be hit by
the jets.
• In EU-countries the complete system has to comply with EU-machine
directives and should be CE-marked. In North America, consult Underwriters
Laboratory for any specific regulatory needs relative to the entire CIP (Clean
In Place) System.
• Earmuffs should always be used when operating the machine.
• Be careful not to drop any tank cleaning machine/equipment when lifting
and/or carrying. Dropping the machine could cause serious injuries. Never
stand underneath the machine during mounting or operation.
• When handling the tank cleaning machine, never lift by the nozzle housing.
• The equipment may only be used for tank cleaning operations as described
in this manual.
• The equipment has not been assessed as a safety related device as referred
to in directive 94/9EC Annex II, clause 1.5
Always follow these instructions before taking the BIO 10 into service!

3. General Description
The Scanjet BIO 10 is a media driven and lubricated tank cleaning machine. No
lubrication substances as oil, grease, etc. are used. All materials in contact with
the machine meet the general standards for hygienic processes. Ceramic and
tungsten bearings are standard for an extra long service life. The unique design
of the BIO 10 makes it completely self-cleaning and self-draining. There are no
interior pockets where water and dirt can accumulate, making this machine one
of the best choices for hygienic applications.
Functional Principle
When cleaning media enters the machine it first passes through a turbine and a
worm gearbox, then a nozzle housing leading it out through 4 nozzles into the
tank. The turbines rotation drives the worm gearbox, making the machine rotate
around its own axle and at the same time, the nozzle housing is forced to rotate
clockwise.
A combined motion of the machine’s body and nozzle housing creates a criss-
cross cleaning pattern inside the tank. After 6 1/8 rotation of the nozzle housing,
a first course pattern has been created inside of the tank. This process is repeated
8 times, each time indexed from the other until a full cleaning pattern has been
created. When this is finalized after 47 rotations of the machine body, or 49
rotations of the nozzle housing, the first cycle will be repeated.
Cleaning of tanks is a process depending on a number of factors; soilage, distance
between nozzles and tank walls, cleaning agent, temperature etc. All of these
factors need to be considered before a proper cleaning can be accomplished.
The rotation speed of the machine depends on flow rate through the machine.
Higher flow rate makes the turbine spin faster and because of this the machine
is equipped with different turbines depending on nozzle size and intended
operating parameters.

5. Performance Data
Under performance data Scanjet presents Effective Jet Length.
Effective Jet Length is defined as the distance between the nozzle and the tank
surface where the jet achieves 250 mm water column (50lbs/sqr.ft) impact force
at tank surface. The Effective Jet Length is measured at horizontal and static
conditions.
The Jet Length is affected by a lot of different factors such as rotation speed of
the machine (velocity of the jet at the tank surface), temperature of the cleaning
media, cleaning agent used and so on.
The vertical jet length can be estimated to be approximately 1/3 less than the
horizontal jet length.
The following graphs show the flow, effective jet length (radius) and complete
cleaning time for each combination of inlet pressure and nozzle diameter. Other
nozzle diameters and maximum jet lengths are available upon request.
Flow vs Pressure
Inlet pressure has been measured at the machine inlet. In order to achieve the
same performance as indicated in the these curves, the pressure drop in the
supply line must be taken into consideration.

6. Installation Instructions
General Installation Instructions: The Scanjet BIO 10 cleaning machine is
designed to be installed in a vertical upright or inverted position, however, the
machine may operate horizontally or in any other desired position.
Supply line: Scanjet recommends to install a 100 micron filter in the supply
line in order to avoid large particles lodging inside the machine. All supply lines
should be flushed to remove dirt and particles before connecting the machine
to the system.
Cleaning Media: Only media compatible with the materials listed in the
reference list of parts for your model should be used. See “4. Technical Data”
on page 7.
After Use Cleaning: Depending on the type of cleaning that has been
performed and the type of cleaning media used, a procedure for after use
flushing of the cleaning system should be developed for your application. In
general, a fresh water flush is recommended after each cleaning.
Pressure: Hydraulic shocks may damage the system. In order to avoid shocks
increase pressure gradually from 0 to maximum operating pressure over 5-7
seconds. Do not exceed 12 Bar (180 PSI) inlet pressure! Higher pressure in
combination with higher flow rates will increase consumption of wear parts and
result in major leakage.
NOTE! The machine is only self-draining if installed in a vertical
position, upright or inverted.
Warning! If the machine is used in potentially explosive
atmospheres then tapes or joint sealing compounds, which are
electrical insulators, must not be used on threads or joints, unless an
electrical connection is otherwise established to ensure an effective
grounding. In addition, connection pipe work must be electrically
conductive and grounded to the tank structure. This is important in
order to avoid any build up of static electricity in the machine.

#BIO10 11 – 140813Page 12 of 40
6.1. Connecting to Supply Line
Never attach the Scanjet BIO 10 by grabbing the nozzle housing! Always use
proper tools, and turn the threaded connection as shown in the picture below.
When threading the inlet connection of the tank cleaning machine to the
cleaning media connection, Scanjet recommends that Food Grade Teflon tape or
any other appropriate food grade anti-seizing compound is used to avoid metal
galling (Galling means that threads clamp together and cannot easily loosen).
Following anti-seize compounds are recommended for use with food
industry, “FDA approved”

7. Maintenance
7.1. Preventive maintenance
In order to keep your Scanjet tank cleaning machine servicing you as an efficient
tool in your tank cleaning operations, it is essential to care for maintenance.
Following a simple maintenance program will keep your tank cleaning machine
in good condition and the machine will maintain its high performance.
The following recommended preventive maintenance program is based on tank
cleaning machines working in average conditions. However, a cleaning machine,
which has a rough and dirty job to do, will need more frequent attention than
one working in ideal conditions. It is recommended that the maintenance
program is adjusted to suit such a situation.
Only use proper tools when servicing the machine; see chapter “16. Tool Kit”
for Scanjet standard tool kit. Never use excessive force or hammer components
together or apart. Always follow all assembly/disassembly steps in the order
described in this manual. Never assemble components without previous cleaning;
this is especially important at all mating surfaces. Work only in a clear well lighted
working area.
Good maintenance is careful and regular attention!
NOTE! Timely replacement of bearings will prevent costly damages to
the gears. However, all bearing bushes, made from high performance
PEEK (PolyEtherEtherKetone) material, are mounted with a press-fit
and should not be removed unless they need to be replaced.
Using any other than Scanjet original parts will invalidate
the warranty.

#BIO10 11 – 140813Page 14 of 40
7.2. Service kit
Tank cleaning machines are installed and operated under extremely rough
conditions. In order to ensure continued safe operation of the Scanjet tank
cleaning machines it is advised to follow given service instructions.
Scanjet has identified components which should been checked at regular
intervals and replaced if necessary, because of wear or damage. This is important
in order to avoid unplanned stops or breakdowns and to assure safe, smooth
and trouble free operation of the tank cleaning machines. The components that
may be subject to wear and need replacement have been included in service kit,
naturally optimized for each specific model and type of Scanjet tank cleaning
machine.

7.4. Disassembly
1. Use a screwdriver (Scanjet tool 25257)
to remove the round spring holding
the locking shafts in place inside the
connection.
2. Remove the four locking shafts. This can
be done by rotating the whole machine
“gravity” or by using the screwdriver to
force them out. As you do this, be sure
that the flow guide and turbine are in
their lowest position!
3. When the locking shafts are out the inlet
cone can easily be removed.
4. Remove flow guide and turbine assembly.
5. Hold the machine steady (use soft material
when holding it to avoid damaging the
surface) and use Scanjet tool 25255 to
undo the support bearing (pos. 4). Insert
the shaft as shown on the picture to line
up the stator and prevent damages while
undoing the support bearing. It is very
important that the shaft is kept in place
during the entire procedure. NOTE! The
thread is a right handed thread.
NOTE! If the support bearing appears to
be stuck in place with Loctite, an electrical
heater gun may be used around the thread
(pos. 4).
NOTE! Be careful not to cause galling
when undoing the support bearing. If the
thread feels like it is about to get stuck,
turn back by threading the support ring
on and then try to undo it again.If needed,
repeat carefully until the bearing is loose.

7.5. Reassembly
1. Start by mounting the four locking shafts
(pos. 7) in the nozzle housing (pos. 19).
The chamfer should be facing away
from the nozzle housing (see picture).
2. When mounting the locking rings (pos.
6) it is important that the pins are facing
towards the nozzle housing (as shown
on the picture) otherwise they could
prevent the machine from rotating.
3. Now reassemble the gearbox. If the bearings have been changed, carefully
press them into their places. Be observant when mounting the bearing 25276
(pos. 30 on previous page) so that it is mounted flat to avoid unnecessary
wear.
4. Be careful not to damage the gear teeth while mounting the gear and gear
shafts.
