ViraTek Misting Tunnels
Overview
ViraTek Decontamination Misting Tunnels are designed to provide complete coverage of any product conveyed through the work opening. Misting tunnels are self-contained and portable to move easily within a facility. Four stainless-steel casters, with locking brakes, allow smooth transfer throughout the facility. If desired, the misting tunnel can be locked into place in a specific location and can be used with an optional pass-through door for dirty/clean room settings. If utilizing the optional pass-through door, the entire misting tunnel is situated on the dirty side of the pass-through door, and an off-load conveyor attaches to the pass-through door on the clean side where the pass-through door can be closed when the misting tunnel is not in use.
As the product moves through the misting tunnel, spray nozzles are strategically located above, below, and on both sides of the product to ensure 100% sanitization coverage. Spray nozzles are complete with 200 mesh filter screens that are easily removable for maintenance, cleaning, or replacement. The nozzles have a capacity of .018gpm and are provided with a needle valve for optimum performance. At the end of the spray pipe, there is a shutoff that can be opened to flush the pipe in case of debris blockage. A creased, single drain pan increases the efficiency of drainage back to the reservoir with a filter screen to prevent debris from entering the drain.
BENEFITS:
- ViraTek Misting Tunnels stop pathogens before they enter your facility by simply locating the portable (or fixed) unit to receive all incoming animal crates, bedding, feed, etc. All items fed through the misting tunnel receive a fine mist of sanitizer, providing complete coverage in 7 seconds.
- ViraTek Misting Tunnels increase the productivity of staff. Studies show it takes over 2 minutes for facility staff to completely sanitize the exterior of each incoming item via hand spraying. Not only does the misting tunnel save time, but also it eliminates repetitive hand motions associated with hand-spraying.
- Consistent and complete coverage is ensured since variations in employee techniques and capabilities are eliminated.
