Net Cleaning
From hand-operated cleaning discs to high-tech ROV technology.
Our net cleaning solutions are suitable for anything from small operations to large-scale fish farms. Net cleaning systems for all needs
Marine fouling leads to reduced water flow through the pens and reduced oxygen levels. It also causes the pen/net to become heavier, which leads to stress and in the worst-case scenario a breakdown of the pen construction. The algae growth may also cause disease and stress symptoms in the biomass.
With AKVA group´s net cleaning equipment the fish in the location will prosper in optimum growing conditions.
Suits every need
From small farm sites to large-scale fish farming companies. AKVA group has fit-for-purpose net cleaning solutions for every need.
Set for the future
The high-end FNC8 ROV cleaner constitutes an economical and safe way to clean pens - this is the future of maintenance and inspections!
Minimal wear
Ensure the best possible conditions for your fish with minimal wear on the nets and without causing harm to the environment.
Effective Net Cleaning
Strong marine fouling on the net can stop the oxygen supply. Algae growth can increase bacterial loads and cause diseases and stress in the biomass.
Perfect water flow
It is proven that increased marine fouling leads to reduced water flow. As a result, the oxygen-rich water will mostly flow around the pen.
Growth curve
Good water flows through the nets are crucial at high water temperatures. The growth curve is almost identical for most aquaculture species such as; trout, cod, halibut, sea bass and sea bream.

Effective cleaning
The net cleaning rig “swims” along the net line in the pen and clean the net using high-pressure seawater. The rig also cleans the top of the net.
Easy operation
The net cleaner can be delivered with a mobile pilot console or a pilot chair with integrated control system.
Flexible operations
The thrusters are designed for flexible operations with no sharp wheels or belts that can damage the net.
Balance
The rig is always in balance regardless of whether it cleans horizontally, vertically or upside down.
Complete monitoring
Advanced IP camera solutions and sensors ensure complete monitoring during the entire cleaning process.
Higher water flow = minimal wear
AKVA FNC8 2.0 supports a higher water flow, which makes it possible to reduce the pressure without affecting the cleaning performance. This way, the wear on the net impregnation is reduced to an absolute minimum.
Almost like mowing the lawn
Cleaning the net with an FNC8 net cleaner almost feels like mowing the lawn, except the cleaning is done with high-pressure water instead of mechanical processes.
Quality high-pressure pumps from Kamat
AKVA FNC8 is delivered with a high-quality high-pressure system from KAMAT which ensures the correct pressure and flow.
