Abstract
An automatic beverage tube cleaner especially applicable to beer distribution coils includes controllable valves for isolating individual pressurized beverage sources from their respective conduits and for connecting the conduits together to a discharge pump, the pump being of a type which defines an open discharge path whether or not the pump is operating, a vacuum fitting connected to a source of cleaning solution for drawing the cleaning solution into the conduits, and a system of supply valves for sequentially flushing the conduits with cleaning solution and clean rinse water. An automatically-actuated controller initiates operation in off-hours, providing a self-cleaning maintenance-free beverage delivery system.
