Introducing The Britannia Supreme 2-Brush Drive Through Wash

Whether you’re looking to save money, energy, space, or all three, the Britannia Supreme 2-brush Drive Through Wash is one of the most dynamic solutions to grace the market. Sounds tempting? Read on to get the full profile.

Two Brushes Do Plenty

Bus, lorry, and commercial vehicle wash systems are available in two, three, and four brush configurations. Each has its benefits. Two brush systems are designed for speed, efficiency, and minimal maintenance in limited spaces. Two-brush systems may be smaller and more compact than their alternatives, but they are equally formidable, with their unique design providing the same quality of cleaning as other multi-brush systems.

A Complete, Compact Clean

Having two brushes does not mean that only the sides of the vehicles are cleaned! Instead, revolutionary technology uses hydraulic arms that move the brushes around the bus, lorry, or commercial vehicle, enabling two brushes to do the work of four. This dynamic approach finishes all faces to a gleaming polish with unparalleled efficiency. Check out the 2-brush drive-through in action to see how this is ideal for locations where space-saving is important.

Gleaming Speed While Saving Power

The rotating hydraulic arms may take on the role of four brushes, but they don’t waste any time in the process. The compact 2-brush drive-through washing system can perform up to 50 washes per hour, which equates to around 70 seconds per vehicle. What makes this even more impressive is the energy credentials. In excellent news for sustainability, the wash's power consumption is a modest 160 kW/h, costing around £39 an hour. The RC200 Reclaim power consumption returns 1 kW/h, which can reduce this price even further.

Water Reclaim Unit Options

Water reclaim units are one of the best ways to recycle water. This helps towards global, national, local, and individual sustainability goals. Recycling water can also help to keep costs down, further enhancing the appeal of the Supreme 2 brush drive-through wash system from Britannia. With no reclaim unit, approximately 320 litres of water are lost by remaining on the vehicle (carry off), spray, and evaporation. With a reclaim unit, this figure drops to a minuscule 32l. That’s an amazing 288 Litres of water captured, filtered, and cleaned for re-use.

Future Innovations

Like all wash systems from Britannia, the 2-brush drive-through wash system for buses and lorries is brimming with innovations. These are designed to enhance efficiency, reduce maintenance demands, reduce downtime, and automatically report faults. Technological innovations for the two-brush commercial vehicle cleaning system also focus on performance reporting. Daily operator reporting is extensive. It creates an individual profile for each vehicle, recording the history of wash cycles and flagging any vehicles that are missed. From this, wash costs are calculated, water usage is gauged, and equipment energy usage is reported, enabling cost-saving tweaks to be introduced. These reports are automatically generated and submitted, eliminating the common risk of human error while freeing up valuable time.
