Auto and Industrial Equipment - Parts Washer | Rotary

How does it operate?

Auto & Industrial Equipment’s Rotary Parts Washers & Degreasers utilize an enclosed rotating basket which is directionally jet-sprayed with a hot water/detergent solution.

The water/detergent solution can be re-used many times, economising water & detergent.

The water/detergent solution is heated by 3 immersed elements which are thermostatically controlled by a three-phase power box, with 24v controls for operator safety. The use of insulation assists in maintaining operation temperatures up to 80°C.

A wash-cycle timer can be used to set washing duration, shutting down the jet-spraying system but maintaining temperature once the pre-set time has elapsed.

The latent heat in the washed parts assists in ‘flash drying’, and there is no risk of rusting, as our recommended detergent contains a mild rust inhibitor.

The basket can be rotated using one of two methods:

• Water-jet Pressure (water driven)
• Gear Drive (gear driven)

Units where the basket is driven by Water-jet Pressure have a ‘free-spinning’ basket. High-pressure water-jets are directed onto an array of fins on the base of the basket which result in the basket rotating. Parts are washed by spray-bars located above, below and to the side of the basket. 

Units which are Gear Driven have the basket attached to a spindle which is rotated by a motor. Gear Driven units have high torque, low speed rotation. These units come with X-Configuration spray-bars, located above & below the basket with upright spray-bars located on opposite sides of the basket, concentrating the cleaning action. Basket support frames in these models increase wash load capacity to 750Kg.
