The Sraml Tunnel Cooler is equipped with a collection basin and centrifugal pump, pumping cold water to the spray nozzles mounted on top of the tunnel. The precise position of the nozzles maximizes the spraying effect. The droplets are sprayed in a full cone-shaped manner for an even distribution of water onto the bottle.

The plastic spray nozzles can be easily detached using “twist and pull” system, which enables easy cleaning and maintenance. When process water in the basin overheats, it is washed into the drain and replaced with fresh cold water. The water-cooling plate heat exchanger can be installed on request to minimize waste water.
