Power Wash Cart
Efficient Cleaning for Aircraft Maintenance
The Power Wash Cart is engineered for efficient and effective cleaning in aircraft maintenance, providing a dual functionality for optimal performance.
Robust Design
Constructed with a powder-coated steel frame at D-Check Developments Inc., the Power Wash Cart is built to withstand the rigors of demanding cleaning tasks. It boasts pneumatic casters for easy maneuverability, allowing the cart to navigate around the aircraft without hassle. The included hose reels feature two 125-foot twin hoses that enhance cleaning flexibility and reach.
Versatile Applications Across Aircraft Cleaning
Exterior Aircraft Washing
Effective for removing dirt, grime, and contaminants from large surfaces.
Landing Gear Cleaning
Ideal for ensuring landing gear systems are free from debris for safety.
Engine Compartment Maintenance
Cleans engine components while preserving sensitive areas from damage.
De-Icing and Snow Removal
Assists in removing ice and snow, facilitating safer ground operations.
Onboard Reservoirs and Pumps
Equipped with an onboard water reservoir with a capacity of 75 gallons and a matching detergent reservoir, the Power Wash Cart is prepared for comprehensive cleaning tasks. Two 20:1 severe-duty pneumatic pumps ensure a consistent and powerful output of detergent and water, allowing crews to efficiently tackle any mess.
Exceptional Cleaning Flexibility
The Power Wash Cart sets a new standard in aviation maintenance tools with its exceptional cleaning flexibility. Equipped with twin 125-foot hoses, this cart allows maintenance crews to clean across various aircraft surfaces without the need to reposition the cart frequently. The dual functionality makes it perfect for overcoming challenging cleaning scenarios, ensuring that every hard-to-reach area is thoroughly cleaned.
Tailored Cleaning Solutions for Every Task
With adjustable dilution options and varying output pressure between 1,800 to 2,200 PSI, the Power Wash Cart provides tailored cleaning solutions suited for different aviation maintenance needs. Technicians can easily customize the intensity of the wash, ensuring that both delicate surfaces and stubborn grime are treated appropriately. This versatility makes the Power Wash Cart an indispensable part of any maintenance operation!
Durable and Safe Operation
Safety and durability are paramount in aircraft cleaning, and the Power Wash Cart excels in both areas. The robust design, featuring quick disconnect air valves and high-pressure rated couplings, ensures safe operation during demanding cleaning tasks. Users can trust that the cart’s welded structural integrity and industrial-grade components will endure heavy use while maintaining performance and stability.
Benefits of The Power Wash Cart
The Power Wash Cart is designed with numerous features that enhance safety and functionality:
Enhanced Safety Features
Quick disconnect air valves and fluid couplings ensure safe operation, while upstream air is automatically bled when disconnected. Couplings are rated for 5,800 PSI, and twin hoses have a burst rating of 9,000 lbs, assuring potential failures.
User-Friendly Operation
The cart features a primary mixing tank that dilutes detergent concentrate with water before it enters the pump. With adjustable dilution and output pressure varying from 1,800 to 2,200 PSI, operators can tailor cleaning intensity for different tasks.
Convenient Tool Tray
An integrated tool tray allows for easy access to additional cleaning materials without entangling hoses, improving overall efficiency during cleaning operations.
Durable Construction
The unit's robust build, with welded structural integrity and industrial-grade components, ensures longevity and resilience under heavy use.
Independent Operation
The Power Wash Cart is equipped with hose reels and wands that function independently, allowing operators to spray cleaner, pressure wash, and rinse simultaneously.
Built for Accessibility
Constructed for long-lasting use, the Power Wash Cart features a low-profile design that facilitates easy maneuverability under aircraft.
Environmental Benefits and Cost Savings
The Power Wash Cart is engineered to save water and reduce waste treatment costs, promoting a more sustainable cleaning process.
Versatile Cleaning Tools
The cart includes uniquely designed wands that make it effortless to clean the aircraft's hard-to-reach areas.
Maximized Operational Efficiency
One of the most significant advantages of the Power Wash Cart is its ability to drastically reduce operator time. Operators can expect to save over 50% of the time typically spent on aircraft cleaning. Each technician has independent control over the mixing ratios of cleaning chemicals, pressure settings, and can efficiently manage their supply hoses and nozzles. With 150 feet of hose, maintenance crews can work independently around the aircraft. Field reports indicate a typical “C Check” wash on an MD80 would take six to eight hours with standard methods, whereas the D-Check Wash Cart reduces this to just two to three hours.
Eco-Conscious Chemical Management
The Power Wash Cart also proves to be environmentally beneficial by significantly reducing chemical usage by over 70%. Its versatile cleaning solution mixing ratio allows adjustments from 1:1 down to 75:1. Average reports show that conventional pressure washing systems consume between 60-80 gallons of cleaning chemicals for a “C Check” wash, while the D-Check Wash Cart utilizes only 18-25 gallons. This not only lowers operational costs but also minimizes the environmental impact.
Premium Construction
The Power Wash Cart is built using the highest quality components that meet and exceed aviation maintenance requirements. Each part is selected for durability and performance. For instance, the pressure washing wand features a protective shroud to prevent damage to aircraft surfaces, while valves and stainless steel quick disconnect couplings can be easily rebuilt, reducing long-term replacement costs. The frame and casters are designed for years of daily use, ensuring reliability and steadfast performance.
