Cleaning-in-place systems must deliver verified coverage without excessive cycle time or chemical use. Design starts with understanding vessel geometry, spray device selection, and drainability of all product-contact surfaces.
Spray ball coverage testing is a critical validation step. Riboflavin or equivalent tests confirm that all internal surfaces receive cleaning solution — a requirement that must be planned before tanks are released for production.
CIP skids should be sized for flow and pressure requirements across multiple circuits, with clear segregation between caustic, acid, and rinse phases. Automation and recipe management reduce operator error and support batch record integration.
Midex designs and commissions CIP systems with documented cycles, coverage verification, and operator training — aligned with hygienic design principles and client SOPs.
