They are considered CIP and can be BUT, that will only work properly with a recirculating cleaning process and the proper strength caustics and acids.
Also, even with all that, certain deposits can still attach to anything in the beer line and faucets. Things that caustic and acid won't remove. The solution for this is to use sodium bicarbonate in addition to your regular cleaning routine about every 4th time you clean your system.
Make sure you rinse completely prior to and after this step as it can react violently with acid!
Hope this helps,
