EcoCcompact machines are designed to keep unit cleaning costs low even when cleanliness requirements are high.
Ecoclean’s EcoCcompact is a compact plug-and-play system for efficient solvent cleaning and preservation. This series of machines contain large-batch capacity, improved washing mechanics and wash fluid reconditioning as well as energy-optimized system technology. The machine accomplishes cleaning tasks (ranging from precleaning and intermediate cleaning to final cleaning and preservation) in a fast, needs-based manner.
The small footprint and flexible changeover between hydrocarbons and modified alcohols are also said to contribute to its economic efficiency and future-proof concept of the cleaning system. The EcoCcompact system requires floorspace of 3,200 × 1,600 × 2,450 mm, which is said to enable users to switch easily between hydrocarbons and modified alcohols (semipolar solvents) during ongoing operation without any conversion work.
The machine comes with two or three fully integrated flood tanks, each fitted with a filtration system in the supply and return lines in the form of bag-type or high-performance filters and bypass filtration.
The working chamber’s standard diameter of 550 mm results in a batch capacity which is 10% larger than similar systems, the company says. The high flooding volume means that parts are fully immersed in the wash fluid during the process. In addition, the frequency-controlled flood pumps not only ensure that the working chamber is filled and emptied quickly but that they achieve a high mechanical cleaning effect during the standard injection flood washing step.
The EcoCcompact’s energy-optimized system technology makes the machine even more economically efficient, the company says. The second and third flood tanks are warmed by heat recovered from the distillation process, which enables a significant reduction in energy consumption.
