Wash 4

SCBA cleaning machine

Key features:

The wash 4 cleaning machine is specially developed for the professional cleaning of SCBAs with breating with the breathing cylinder still attached. During the cleaning process, the SCBAs remain pressurised.

In addition, the wash 4 is also capable of washing helmets and masks. Helmets can be placed individually on the pull-out frame. For masks, our standard mask baskets can be used. Additionally, the 18-pin mask frame (the AW4M) can be used as an alternative.

In the wash section, the products are sprayed on all sides with a large quantity of water from a moving wash frame. A detergent may be dissolved in this water. The washing water returns to the wash tank by a removable filter. An overflow and supply of clean tap water keep the level in the wash tank constant.

The water level in the wash tank is also protected by a low-level cut-out. The water in the wash tank is heated. A digital temperature controller controls the heating system.

The wash section components are:
  • A centrifugal pump for the main wash
  • A level sensor, as low-level cut-out and high and low water control system
  • An overflow in the wash tank
  • A wash tank, capacity approximately 90 litres, and a rinsing tank approx. 20 litres
  • A water discharge pump to drain the wash tank
  • A removable filter
  • A moving wash frame with wash nozzles for the main wash and a second system with stainless steel nozzles for the rinse cycles

 

The rinse section uses clean tap water. There is a magnetic valve on the rinsing water (tap water) supply pipe to the rinse tank. This will retain the tank level automatically by level switches. The water consumption is approx. 20 litres per wash cycle. The centrifugal rinse pump will pump the water to the stainless steel nozzles inside the moving washing frame. After rinsing, the water returns to the water tank via the filter basket in the wash section.

You will find the motor compartment on the backside of the machine. The control panel is on the front side of the machine. A water filter is in the water pipe, just in front of the magnetic valves.

This machine has a main circuit breaker, with which you can stop the machine immediately in the event of an emergency or a fault. It is a red/yellow switch. You will find it at the control panel of the machine.
