Washdown Systems are high pressure washing systems used for cleaning with water and/or chemicals in industries such as food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, abattoirs, are the solution to low water pressure. By installing a washdown system, you achieve a constant reliable high water pressure.
- For high pressure and high volume washdown requirements
- Typically controlled by variable speed to provide constant water pressure on demand
- Significant energy savings when upgrading old systems to new energy efficient pumps and controls
- We can supply, install, upgrade, repair and maintain
Benefits & Features
A list of example features below is shown for our range of Washdown systems. We can supply a washdown system to meet your exact demands, budget and pressure requirements.
- Duplex sets are set up to run in duty/standby and duty/duty assist. This means that on low flows only one pump will run at low speed (minimising power consumption, resulting in substantial energy savings) and this duty pump will automatically switch every 48 hours for even wear and preventing legionella. When higher flows are called for both pumps will run.
- Constant pressure regardless of demand – this makes them ideal for supplying water where there is variable demand. This demand may vary on process by the minute and hour, depending on the washdown requirements
- All normal protections are included including high and low voltage protection, over and under pressure protection and dry running
- Units are available with stainless steel manifolds, baseplates, isolation and check valves for clean fresh water
- BMS and SMS connectivity – available connections to provide remote monitoring of your system
- Smartphone connectivity – can be used to change settings, fault find and allows remote access.
Description
The main purpose of a washdown systems set is to supply a comparatively high volume of water at a substantial pressure to washdown a process area. Typically washdown pump systems have hoses and gun configurations connected, to supply multiple uses and areas at any one time. The washdown pump system is identical to a booster set, however typically a lot higher pressure, and the units can be joined in series.
Low water pressure is becoming an increasingly worrying issue for many factories and industrial applications around the world. There are three main reasons for this:
- Increased hygiene standards
- A consistently growing demand for more water for washdown facilities
- A requirement for constant pressure as standard ensuring your process runs constantly
Washdown systems are the solution to low water pressure. By installing a washdown system, you achieve a constant reliable water pressure, giving your process the resource it requires.
Old fixed speed washdown systems often are found to be running at full speed even when not in use. By replacing or upgrading these systems with variable speed drives there can be significant savings, providing excellent pay back times, and increasing your nett profit.
