IN HOUSE FLEET WASH SYSTEM KEEPS BUSES SPARKLING
Kerrick was approached in early 2015 by a New Zealand tour operator / bus rental company with a request for a heavy duty car wash system capable of keeping their large fleet of buses and coaches in the pristine condition required by their highly competitive market.
Kerrick consequently built the tour bus company an industrial grade fleetwash unit operating at 3000 psi and 21 l/min, with a low pressure chemical venturi. Equipped with an Italian made 7.5kW three phase motor driving a high quality Interpump pump, this unit is capable of dealing with heavy duty use on a long term basis. The pump and motor set is protected by an aluminium checker plate cover, is weatherproof, has a wall mounted switch box and a 40 litre header tank to compensate for inconsistent water pressure.
Kerrick also supplied a galvanized hose reel with 25m high pressure hose so the customer can easily wash both sides of the bus without the hassle of having to turn the bus around. The fleetwash was supplied with a twin lance, meaning operators can quickly change from low pressure chemical to high pressure water without walking back to the machine.
Kerrick’s Fleetcare Soft a unique detergent containing biodegradable surfactants to break the static electricity which holds road film to vehicles, was also provided. In addition Kerrick designed the aluminium cover to be removable allowing the fleetwash system to be serviced with ease.
