The automatic cleaning of trains operating regionally and nationwide requires distinctly designed wash technique.

Several factors such as the shapes and combinations of trains, their varying designdependant on their drive system, the varying type of surface dirt (insects, diesel smut,abrasions by the pantographs, etc) make high demands an the cleaning performanceand efficiency of the equipment.

In addition the right choice regarding cleaning agents to be employed and theamount of dwell time before the physical brush wash is of paramount importancewith regards to the final wash result.

Minimize coststhrough water recycling

Quartz-gravel filter – water recycling unit FONTIS

Water ist a precious natural resource and mustbe used sparingly. Drinking water is too valuable to be used for washing vehicles. Which is why it makesmost sense to recycle water used for washing vehicles. Increasing fresh water supply and drainagecosts are pushing car wash operators to seek a solutionto these environmental and financial dilemmas.

Your advantages:• Favorable price/performance ratio• Automatic back-flush (optional)• High purification performance• Space-saving construction• Integrated supply pump and built-in air compressor• User-friendly operation with SPC control• Upgrade possibility through chemical pre-treatment

for polluted water• Conductivity meteringdevice

The FONTIS 30 has been especially designed forrecycling drainage water from wash tunnels undlarger truck and bus wash units with a recyclingcapacity of 30,000 litres per hour. Water recycling and compliance with specified official reglementations values are complied with just asare the demands for an automatic water recyclingsystem with optional upgrade components.
