Intended Usage
The Tornado Compact wheel washer is designed for car service centers and brand service centers to clean wheel disks and tires fast and carefully using water and plastic grains. This makes wheels perfectly clean and almost dry. You can balance clean wheels more easily and more accurately. Moreover, it is more convenient to transport wheels when they are clean.
Any improper use of the wheel washer such as the washing of tire or rim separately is STRICTLY PROHIBITED because it may cause damages to the machine.
Maximum size for a wheel for this model of wheel washers is 850mm x 400mm. This allows you to use it not only for motor cars and off-road vehicles but also for small trucks.
Using Tornado Compact (H) automatic washers allows you to improve the quality of service while performing tire fitting and wheel balancing, to enhance efficiency of your tire fitting shop and to reduce technicians’ manual labor.Washing
Closed cycle wheel washing is used, dirt settles at the bottom. The washer does not require connecting to the water supply and sewerage system and allows you to keep your shop clean and tidy.Depending on the dirt accumulation level you can select one of the following washing modes:- 20 seconds;
- 40 seconds;
Design
The washer includes a water tank, washing box, electrical unit box, water supply system, air supply system, wheel rotation drive and control system.
The washing technique involves high-pressure water and grain supply (grains are used as a washing element).
It is a closed cycle washer (250-300 wheels) and thanks to that you need only compressed air and electricity to connect it. The washer does not require connecting to the water supply and sewerage system.
The automatic washer is maintenance-friendly:- grains are automatically accumulated into a special container;
- water and dirt are removed through a drain hole;
- in the front part of the water tank there is a solid sediment and dirt tank. Thanks to that sediment is accumulated into a place where it can be easily removed from. It is removed from the underpan mechanically.
The washing unit of the machine, water tank and shafts are made of stainless steel. The driving shaft as opposed to washers of other manufacturers, is also made of stainless steel.
To decrease noise, double acoustic sound insulation is used in Tornado Comfort wheel washers.
The control panel includes five touch keys. This makes the washer ergonomic, easy to operate and highly moisture-proof.
