For safe cleaning, it is crucial to be able to adjust the cleaning pressure to clean thoroughly while reducing the wear on the net.

"The gentle cleaning gives my customers a great advantage," says Yatek AS CEO Øyvind Høie.

The most gentle

Pressure can easily be adjusted with the net cleaner, which today delivers the market's lowest cleaning pressure. The unique patented technology with thruster control allows this gentle cleaner to deliver plenty of water at low pressure during washing. The pressure range for use is between 90 and 150 bar, which is significantly lower than competing equipment, and water flow is a maximum of 326 litres per minute.

“With this net cleaner we can remove heavy fouling, such as mussels, when we need to. And we can do normal maintenance cleaning very carefully,” says Øyvind Høie, CEO in the service company Yatek AS. “In addition, the impregnation lasts longer. This is an important feature that gives our customers a big win,” concludes Høie.
