VP Minor Portable

The VP Minor is a pre-programmed twin nozzle tank washing machine manufactured from 316 stainless steel. This unit is suitable for use on both small and medium crude oil, chemical and product tankers and can be supplied as either fixed or portable units. The VP Minor is also available as a ‘sealed for life’ machine which has been specifically designed to operate with aggressive / abrasive types of drive media. The ‘sealed for life machines’ are also the perfect choice when considering the cleaning of mud / slop tanks; this is due to the nature of the sealed gearbox design.
