Abstract


Water storage tanks that are positioned on roof tops or in high elevators can be cleaned and disinfected automatically through this technique. Compared to conventional cleaning techniques, automatic overhead tank cleaning has a number of benefits. It ensures a higher level of disinfection, which is essential for the upkeep and safety of people who consume water from the tank. It is quicker and more efficient. Another method of cleaning tanks without the use of labour-intensive physical labour is overhead tank cleaning. The main benefits of autonomous overhead tank cleaning are better water quality, increased productivity, lower labour costs, and increased worker safety. The procedure normally includes draining the tank, cleaning the internal surfaces, and getting rid of any debris or sediments that may have built up inside. Cleaning water tanks is crucial since the cleanliness of a water tank greatly affects the quality of the water. The development of a mechanical method for cleaning cylindrical water tanks is the goal of this research. The mechanical system consists of a motor, brush-equipped mechanisms, gear rods, and shafts. The shafts and brushes mounted on the c-type mechanisms rotate as a result of the power from the electric supply, beginning to scrub the water tanks inside walls.
