    8-bay self service carwash

    Can you guys recommend me a electrical engineer who could look at our drawings and tell us what would need to be changed to comply with US norms? I know your grid is 60 Hz but that's not an issue since all motors and pumps already support that and the valves and electronics run on 24 V. I think...

    New touchless automatic Chinese wash

    Yes it’s in Europe. The time for wash can be decreased. Dwell time for the first two detergents is configurable and is set to 60 seconds. Drying can also be done in one pass. We’ve run cars with racks and boxes through it and deals with it fine. Also pickups, though not american style like...

    New touchless automatic Chinese wash

    The carwash has been running for two weeks at about 40 cars a day. Installation went pretty smooth, took 7 working days for 4 guys to do it, 2 of which didn't have any previous experience. We had installation manual and online support from manufacturer. Here's a video of full wash cycle the...

    8-bay self service carwash

    Well they are not the most pretty sights but they are excellent locations for SS carwash. Insurance is compulsory so people tend to ring up if they break something, also police have pretty good resolution rate. Vandalism is not a big issue here. In 15 years I've had couple of robbery attempts...

    New touchless automatic Chinese wash

    Overall yes, in fact we ordered another machine. I would say the thing that needs improvement the most is drying. Otherwise the wash quality is good especially on Leisuwash SG model which has 2 side arms and separate horizontal arm with swivelling that closely follows the contour of the car.

    New touchless automatic Chinese wash

    I'm from Europe, we ordered and installed several carwashes from Leisuwash (SG model). The only thing I found that you can't source within the continent are, surprisingly, the Siemens PLC I/O modules. I've been told by Siemens that these are localised version for Chinese market. Other components...

    Anyone here from BeNeLux?

    Hello, same as you I just registered after browsing this forum for quite a time also being from Europe, not from BeNeLux though. I don't think there's any board like this in Europe partly maybe because there's lot of languages spoken in Europe. That's a big showstopper :(

    Mosmatic Comfort Hose

    Double too, however I think it makes a difference. I tried with just one at the boom and when washing you could feel a twisting force when holding a gun which is absent when there's swivel at the gun as well.
