Shampoo from the jets for brush watering 
mixed as detergent with water is sprayed 
on the vehicle.

The detergent for preliminary cleaning is 
applied as foam to increase the reaction 
time.  

The dirt catcher retains particles which 
could block the jets.

The dosing pumps mixes the following de-
tergents and cleaning products with water:

–

shampoo (RM 811)

–

drying aid, (foam wax) (RM 829).

–

Foam, (hot foam) (RM 812).

–

Pre-spraying (RM 803 or RM 807)

–

Hot wax (RM 829)

The air needed for to blow-dry the vehicle 
sides flows out of the drier jets.

The blow-dry beam is moved along the 
contour of the vehicle. Built-in ventilators 
generate the necessary air flow to dry the 
vehicle.

The positioning ramp has the following 
functions:

–

It is used to position the vehicle before 
the wash.

–

The drive-out direction is indicated after 
the wash.

–

Display of faults. 

–

During manual operations, the selected 
group is displayed. 

The light barriers detect:

–

the position and contours of the vehicle 
and

–

the position of the vehicle's wheels.

The canisters for detergents and care-liq-
uid are installed in the pillar 2.

The important plant data on the nameplate.

The control cabinet for the plant is accomo-
dated in column 1.

The main switch for the plant is mounted on 
the feed distributor. The feed distributor is 
positioned outside the wash plant in the 
plant room or another suitable location 
nearby. 

In the event of danger for persons, property 
and animals, the plant must be switched off 
immediately by pressing the emergency-
stop button. It is found

–

at the operating point for manual mode,

–

at the wash card/code reader.

The vehicle wash plant is delivered with:

–

with a control station for manual operation

–

with a wash card/code reader (option)

–

with a comfort operating point (option).

–

with a service operating point (option).

A mechanical safety device holds the unit 
on the washing tracks even if the customer 
washing the vehicle makes grave mistakes. 

The wash card or code reader is used for to 
operate the wash plant with self-operation.

Note

The wash cards/codes required for opera-
tion are programmed for the specific plant.   

enables the use of rainwater or recycled 
water as a partial substitute for fresh water.

The optionally obtainable underfloor wash 
facility enables the vehicle underside to be 
washed. Hereby water is sprayed with high 
pressure on the entire underside via two 
oscillating jet pipes.

Hot wax is applied to the front half of the ve-
hicle.  The foam is generated from hot wa-
ter, a pre-spraying agent and compressed 
air and is applied using the pre-spraying 
nozzle. 

The pre-cleaning chemicals are applied to 
the vehicle from stationary fine nozzles. 

The rim cleaner is applied to the wheels 
from two nozzles located in the running 
gear of the unit. 

The high-pressure wash removes excess 
dirt from the surface of the vehicle. By min-
imising the risk of scratches from sand 
grains or similar substances, the HP clean-
ing is very important for paint-protective 
cleaning.  Two designs are available with 
operating pressures of 1.6 MPa (16 bar) 
and 6 MPa (60 bar) respectively.

Before the drying process, foam wax is ap-
plied to the vehicle from the nozzles of the 
drying aid. 

Hot water mixed with wax is sprayed onto 
the vehicle out of the hot wax nozzles.

When there is danger of frost, the water is 
blown out of the pipeline system.   The wash 
plant can be equipped with two anti-frost 
devices:

–

Anti-frost manual:  The blow-out proce-
dure is enabled via the operator of the 
plant.
Automatic anti-frost:  The blow-out pro-
cedure is controlled via a thermostat.

De-mineralised water (from an installed or 
optional RO unit) or fresh water with drying 
aid added to it is applied to the vehicle 
through the nozzles for drying aid. 

Using 4 stationary fine nozzles, the polish-
ing wax is sprayed on to the vehicle with the 
help of compressed air.  The polishing 
process then starts with the help of wash-
ing brushes. 

Safety buttons are required when the re-
quired safety clearance between the wash-
ing unit and fixed structures (such as walls, 
pillars, wash basins) cannot be maintained.   
They avoid persons getting squeezed be-
tween the washing unit and the wall.  The 
washing unit stops immediately as soon as 
a safety button comes in contact with a hur-
dle.  After checking the reason, the safety 
button must be reset by authorised expert. 

Surfaces close to the washing area are pro-
tected against being sprayed by dirt or wa-
ter splashes from the rotating side-brushes.   
The splash guard is fastened to the exter-
nal surfaces of the running gear and to the 
pillars. 

The spurposts have the task to ensure a 
middle alignment of the vehicle. They pre-
vent the vehicle being placed too far away 
from the middle.

In the event of danger for persons, property 
and animals, the plant must be switched off 
immediately by pressing the emergency-
stop button. It is found

–

at the wash card/code reader

–

at the operating point for manual mode

–

at the entrance to the wash hall, if there 
is any operating point or wash card/
code reader there.
