Wash 9U

Breathing mask cleaning machine

Key features:

Wash9U – Breathing Mask Cleaning Machine

(Certified for use in North America only. Are you based elsewhere? Check out the Wash9)

The Wash9U is designed for cleaning and disinfecting up to nine breathing masks/facepieces per cycle. The Wash9U (and Wash9UHP) are Harstra’s most compact cleaning machines.

In addition to breathing masks, other small PPE items can also be cleaned in this machine.

Can clean

  • Up to 9 breathing masks / face pieces, depending on size
  • Other small PPE items that fit in one of our baskets


Cannot clean

  • Pressurized SCBAs without cylinders → see Wash 9UHP or Wash 6UHP
  • Pressurized SCBAs with cylinders attached → see Wash4U
  • Protective clothing or footwear


After cleaning

After the cleaning cycle is complete, it is recommended to dry the PPE items in one of our drying cabinets, such as the M18U.

Position in cleaning product range
The Wash9U is the smallest PPE cleaning machine in our lineup (together with the Wash9UHP). Its compact design makes it ideal for smaller brigades and stations with limited cleaning needs. For pressurized SCBA cleaning, use either the Wash9UHP or Wash6UHP, which offers six times the capacity of the Wash9UHP.
