• Kew Cleaning Systems has introduced a washer designed to clean parts such as brake assemblies and clutches without discharging dust into the atmosphere.
The B5 cleaner is a mobile unit which uses hot water and detergent under low pressure. The technique binds together and removes asbestos dust along with dirt, oil and grease in one operation.
The cleaner has an integral 23-litre tank plus a heater to raise the temperature quickly to 35-95°C. The tank is pressurised to 6 bar with compressed air. The unit is then wheeled to the job and can be operated without power or water supply.
B5 can also be used, says the company, for many other cleaning such as maintenance tools.
