AKVA Net Cleaners uses rotating cleaning discs mounted on cleaning rigs in various shapes and combinations. We use rugged, tailor-made high-pressure pumps to drive the cleaning discs.

The cleaning process starts with submerging the rig on the inside of the net, using only seawater under high pressure. Our Cleaning Systems do not use chemicals or scrubbing action. This is environmentally friendly and will not damage the nets.

Features

  • Remote-controlled video camera (for larger frames)
  • Thruster jets push the cleaning discs harder against the net
  • Stainless steel high-pressure pumps ensure a long lifespan 
  • Separate water supply pre-booster pump increases water flow
  • Oversized built-in water intake suction filter
  • Stainless steel water pressure shock absorber system reduces vibration and pressure hammering in hoses and fittings

The need for oxygen rises when the water temperature increases. This curve is almost identical for most aquaculture species.
