摘要

A method and a device for the simultaneous cleaning of a plurality of pipe
conduits or pipe
conduit systems is provided. The cleaning takes place with a liquid cleaning
medium taken from
a reservoir by means of a feed pump and fed to the systems to be cleaned. To
reduce the
quantity of the required cleaning medium and the cleaning period without
compromising the
aseptic conditions, the described method and device make a provision for the
cleaning medium
stream to be fed to the first system to be cleaned and after leaving the first
system to be cleaned,
to be divided into two component steams, one component stream of which is used
for cleaning
the second system and the other component stream is again fed to the
reservoir. In addition the
second system to be cleaned is assigned a feed pump, whose speed and direction
of rotation are
variable.
