Wash Down System Solutions

Washdown and cleaning of equipment is an expansive area with a number of “ways” to washdown equipment. From portable Wash Bays to fixed wash bay systems to highly portable and versatile trailed washdown pressure washer equipment there are a number of options dependent on the requirement and specific function of any given site.

In an underground mining environment or highly salty ground conditions of a mining area, often site requirements are such that each vehicle is washed post use to prevent corrosion. This is often undertaken in Vehicle wash bays or if there is a particular case of acidic or salt build up on the underside of the vehicle, light vehicle wash down ramps are used to allow the operator to gain access to the underside to facilitate proper cleaning. Other wash down systems are predominantly used for environmental reasons such as weed control or containing mud and soil, stop seed or noxious weed migration and remove contaminants such as coal, grain, oil, grease , fertiliser or metals and to prevent airborne dust. These systems are known as Truck Wheel Wash Systems or a Heavy Duty Wheel Wash System. Truck Wheel Wash Systems can be a permanent wheel wash system or a temporary set up, allowing the system to be moved from site to site.
