Energy efficient wheel washing saves water

Weightron Bilanciai are introducing a range of highly efficient wheel washing equipment to complement their extensive portfolio of weighbridges and axle weighers.

These robust washers already have a proven track record in quarries, land fill sites, waste recycling plants, construction sites and concrete batching plants.

Vehicle weighing systems serve as critical control points at such operating sites and therefore positioning wheel washing equipment in the same area ensures optimum vehicle site logistics.

The focus of the design is on energy-efficient washing with minimum water wastage.

The company claim that their units use up to 50% less energy than competitive units, without compromising cleaning efficiency.

When used in conjunction with the patented Siltbuster water recycling equipment, water savings of up to 30% can be achieved.

The washers deliver high volumes of water under high pressure directly onto the tyre treads and vehicle under-chassis to ensure the complete removal of mud, debris and contaminants.

The Siltbuster water recycling equipment ensures a continual clean supply of water and its 5 sq metre footprint is as effective as a 100,000 litre lagoon.

A number of washers rely on such lagoons and these not only pose safety risks, but also take up valuable site space.

Wheel washing units can be designed to meet specific applications in terms of size and layout, suitable for all types of vehicle.

Both permanent and mobile versions are available with finance packages to suit.
