Wheel Washers – Easy

Description

The mistral Type Easy is a budget-cost wheel wash system for removing light soiling from vehicle tyres. The system delivers 1 full tyre revolution of cleaning power and has a maximum throughput of 20 trucks per hour.

Washing takes place as the vehicle slowly drives through the system and the wash cycle is automatically started via an optical sensor and variably controlled with a timer. The system includes a wash platform and a recycling tank for water treatment with an integrated scraper conveyor for automatic sludge removal.

Available Optional Accessories:

  • Additional nozzles with extra pump(s)
  • Flocculent supplied in 20 litre canisters
  • Sludge collection container
  • Oil separator
  • Additional recycling tanks, 20m³ , 40m³ and 80m³ capacity
  • mistral winter operating equipment
  • Freeze resistant flocculent container
  • “Flipper” rubber boots cleaner

Function

A specially developed nozzle system consisting of bottom and side nozzles integrated in the wash platform, ensures for an efficient water spray profile for targeted cleaning of the tyre profiles. The angled rumble grids that are integrated into the wash platform construction shake vehicles’ wheels and flex open tyre profiles to supplement the cleaning effect.

Washed off sludge is directed into the system’s recycling tank which is located transversely underneath the wash platform. The waste sediment is automatically evacuated via the scraper conveyor and the water is circulated from the tank for reuse in the wash system. The water level in the tank is automatically regulated through a float valve. The use of a flocculent greatly increases and optimizes the sedimentation process and the flocculent is fed via an automatic dosing unit which is included in our standard scope of delivery.

Personnel

The Easy System has a totally automatic operation. Customers’ personnel need only to periodically check and control the nozzles and conveyor system plus ensure a sufficient water supply to the recycling tank. A representative of mistral will instruct the customers’ personnel on routine checks and cleaning of the system during commissioning and handover.

The customer is responsible for preparing a pit with a compacted gravel base plus water and electrical power supplies in accordance with the mistral installation guideline drawing.
