MobyDick Wheel Washing System in Czech quarry
June 20, 2023Recently, a MobyDick ConLine KIT Plus 800C-50P wheel washing system was successfully installed in a Czech quarry. The plant has a generous 50m3 recycling tank and is capable of cleaning the tyres of up to 250 moderately dirty trucks daily. To ensure safety, a safety railing was installed around the tank, which is embedded in the ground and serves as a reliable fall protection. A scraper conveyor was integrated for automatic discharge of the washed-off dirt in the recycling tank. The control cabinet and the dosing pump for the automatic use of flocculant are housed in a specially insulated and heated container to ensure optimum protection against adverse weather conditions. An additional traffic light system ensures smooth operation.
To ensure the longevity of the plant, it was equipped with hot-dip galvanised side walls instead of PVC in accordance with the customer’s individual requirements. To reduce dust formation during the summer months, an effective load humidification system was added. This has a manual control and thus ensures optimum control over the humidification process.
An additional option is the MobyDick “Hand Wash”, which can be used to clean vehicles, equipment and machinery as well as to keep the wash bay clean.
