Aqueous system equals solvent degreasing performance

Technowash’s Vapourwash is claimed to be the first fully aqueous based vapour degreasing system that is an alternative to traditional solvent degreasing.

The machine looks like a conventional solvent vapour degreasing, with a similar footprint, and is operated like a conventional solvent vapour degreaser. Rigorous performance testing has, the company claims, shown that the cleaning standards achieved are consistent, effective, and precise, either matching or outperforming traditional solvent vapour degreasers on each occasion – yet all with the use of only water-based detergents. Through coupling clever design with the latest aqueous based technology, the machine is split into three cleaning stages and a drying stage. Component parts are processed through a heated agitation immersion stage, high powered spray wash stage and a fine heated vapourised mist rinse stage, before finally a hot air drying stage ensures parts leave the machine both clean and dry.
