A mobile wash unit has been developed by N. R. Brock Ltd that is powered by a Norton /Villiers F15 auxiliary engine.
The unit was originally designed as a self-contained mobile car washing system by its inventor, Mr Peter Ibbotson, managing director of the company. It has been developed as a unit for local authorities for cleaning road signs and for washing windows and caravans.
The 147 cc Villiers engine and the wash unit is mounted on top of a steel water storage tank. A Mono M13 pump is linked to a centrifugal clutch system and water is delivered via a Flexy Foam Master detergent unit which gives a spray capable of removing an oil film.
Anti-corrosive fittings are used throughout the unit which is equipped with input and output control valves, as well as a return valve for circulation of the stored water. A 100ft nylon hose is provided and a washing brush with extension rods for highlevel work is optional. The storage tank has a capacity of 200gal, larger sizes being available.
Maintenance is simple and operation of the wash unit can be easily handled by female staff.
