Cleaning in a car and commercial vehicle (truck) workshop

Also in case of sectional cleaning of truck engines you save a lot of time and money. It is no longer required to go to the washing bay and to tilt the driver’s cab Forward and backward several times. With the ph-cleantec technology you are now in a position to carry out the required operation quickly in your workshop. The same also applies to radiators in buses, to swivel joints, retarders and so on. With the quickly changeable spray hose you are in a position to adapt to any situation without problems.

Advantages

• The car does not have to be driven to a separate washing bay
• Time-saving
• No damage to components as with high pressure
• No water into motors and electronics
• Dangerous “stable emulsions” not produced
• No chemicals
• Cleaning also at difficult to access points
• Safeguard of environment
• No problems with weather conditions

In combination with fixed wash-stands ph-cleantec hot water low pressure cleaners are suitable for cleaning of parts and components. The variable pressure adjustment enables the cleaning of delicate parts like „thimbles“ as well as large surfaces. The car does not have to be driven to a separate washing bay, parts can be cleaned “on site”. Supplemented by various spray accessories the most different cleaning tasks are possible.

Advantages

• Flexible
• Mobile
• Low water consumption
• Low pressure
• No splash-back effects
• Economic
• Effective
• No chemicals
• Safeguards health and environment
• Adjustable pressure

Application / Requirement

Leading automobile manufacturers recommend the modern, chemical-free, hot water low pressure cleaning system for brakes of passenger cars and utility vehicles. This method is the most accepted, most effective, most economical, most healthy and environmentally protective way of cleaning brakes, because all dangerous dust can be bound safely and be removed quickly and cleanly. The state of the art technique of the ph-cleantec hot cleaner for brakes allows non-stop operation. Flow heaters that only heat the effluent water ensure satisfactory dust binding and cleaning results. Heat up time even after the refilling of water are not longer required. The durable and user-friendly design helps to prevent operating errors and enables easy handling of the cleaner.

Advantages

• Quick and efficient brake cleaning
• No damage of components in case of using sharp-edged tools
• Healthy and environmental protective cleaning method
• Mobile
• Ready for operation without long heat-up times
• No splash-back effects
• Quick drying
• Meets the requirements of the Employer’s Liability Insurance Association regarding cleaning of brakes and use of solvents

Application / Requirement

The usage of coolants is a real problem in truck Workshops regarding handling and disposal. The ph-cleantec coolant recycling collector offers enormous advantages. Collects the coolant during repair at the cooling circuit, deposits temporarily and provides for an un-crewed refilling.

Comparison of costs

• Between 10 - 20 litres have to be refilled without recycling
  >>> 30,- to 60,- € / change
• Manual filling between 10 - 15 min
  >>> 8,- to 15,- € /Change

Amortisation of KW-FK collector after approx. 40 changes

Advantages

• Easy handling of coolants
• Ease of use
• Better ergonomy
• Coolants can be re-used
• Economical and quick

Technical basics

Diesel particulate filters serve for cleaning the exhaust air of diesel-powered forklifts from respirable carbon particles. They are mounted at the end of the exhaust system and provide: Protection of the employee and environment as well as cleanness in the production The costs per piece are between € 350 – 800 (depending on size)

Previous technology

Cold cleaners and subsequent blowing-off with compressed air, better – but considerably more expensive – would be burn-off chambers!

Application / Requirement

• Quick and efficient cleaning in the forklift workshop
• High rinsing efficiency; particularly into the fine filter fabrics
• Protection against respirable soot particles

Advantages

• Universal cleaning technology
• No damage to sensitive components
• Dust-binding wet cleaning

Application / Requirement

• Cleaning the battery surface and sides
• Mobile system since cleaning in the repair workshop should not be done >>> Fork lift truck is used extensively in the company premises

Advantages when using low pressure hot cleaners

• No special environmental conditions necessary as with high pressure cleaners >>> closed with tiled walls
• Mobile
• Little water consumption and much lower disposal costs
• Safeguards health, protects the environment, promotes motivation
• Cleaning is also possible in the corners without that water sprays back

Application /Requirement

• Cleaning of engine and brake components
• Removal of oily and sooty residues on sensitive mechanical and electronic parts
• A racing cart is cleaned and maintained after each race in order to hold the life span and the operational readiness on highest level.

Previous cleaning technology

• High pressure cleaner care product and lubricant (Price: 7,50 EUR per 500 ml)

Advantages of the ph-cleantec cleaning technology

• No or slight splash-back effects
• Detail cleaning possible
• No water penetration
• Optimal cleaning method for cellular radiator of aluminum without deformation
• Small water quantity
• No solvent-based cleaning agents necessary
• Value retention
• Operational readiness
