Saving energy in power washing systems

The spray cleaner achieves the required result even at room temperature and thus considerably reduces the energy required in so-called power wash systems. The focus here is on energy efficiency and environmental compatibility while maintaining outstanding product performance. Zeller+Gmelin will be exhibiting the spray cleaner at PaintExpo 2022 in Hall 1, Stand 1320. The world’s leading trade fair for industrial coating technology will take place in Karlsruhe from April 26-29, 2022.

Zeller+Gmelin customers do not have to compromise when it comes to the environmental friendliness and versatility of the Divinol spray cleaner product range. Jonas Wasserka, Head of PCH at Zeller+Gmelin, emphasizes: “With our aqueous cleaners for powerwash systems, we are able to achieve
paintable surfaces on all common plastics. We offer alkaline and acidic products for a wide range of applications – and some of them are completely label-free!”

Divinol Spray Cleaner 1362 KC has a high biostability and therefore does not require biocides. It can be used without disturbing foam formation. Due to the low process temperature, less water evaporates during operation of the Powerwash system, which also reduces fresh water consumption.

Top results at low temperatures

When using Divinol Spray Cleaner 1362 KC, temperatures of 25 °C or higher in the power wash system are sufficient to achieve optimal results. There is no need to heat the system or maintain consistently high process temperatures. This makes the pretreatment—and thus the entire painting process—more cost-effective.
