The conditions to manage
Water flow and pressure vary from cycle to cycle, programmes require different mixes and operation is continuous: without controlled dosing, chemical consumption rises or washing results deteriorate.

Car washes
In car washes, quality of service means consistency: every cycle must give the same result even when water pressure and temperature or the number of vehicles change. Detergents, waxes and additives must always be applied at the right concentration.
- Pre-wash and wash
- Waxes and finishing
- Proportional dosing
- Water recycling
The sector
The same concentration in every cycle
Automatic tunnels, rollovers and self-service bays operate continuously and with different programmes, each with its own chemical mix. Dosing must remain stable throughout the working day.
Washing phases
The washing phases
The result depends on the balance between several phases: in each one the chemical must be at the right concentration.
Pre-wash
The product softens and lifts dirt before washing.
Detergent
Shampoos and foams, dosed in proportion to the water delivered.
Rinse
Removes detergent residues.
Finishing
Waxes, shine products and drying aids.
Resources
Fewer chemicals, less water
Operating costs
Controlled dosing eliminates unnecessary consumption of detergents and additives, a significant item in the running costs of the installation.
Water recycling
In installations that recover wash water, the chemical treatment of the recycled water in turn requires accurate dosing.
