Washing machines for washing workwear

Washing machines for washing workwearUnlike household washing machines, industrial washing machines are aimed at processing a larger volume of items at the same time. In addition, such units have increased dimensions, increased power, are characterized by high productivity and additional special functions and options. Industrial washing machines are used in laundries, hospitals, hotels, as well as in large enterprises where the issue of washing workwear is acute. Before purchasing equipment, it is very important to study the main characteristics of the machine in order to choose a machine that will satisfy the needs of your business.

What makes these machines stand out?

Washing machines for washing workwear have a number of significant differences from their household “brothers”. The first thing that will catch the buyer's eye is the larger size of the industrial equipment and the special design. But how does the technique differ from the inside?

  1. The build quality of special machines is higher. In their production, more practical, durable and reliable parts and components are used.
  2. The continuous operation time of an industrial washing machine is, on average, 10 hours, while a household device can only withstand 4 hours of operation without interruption.
  3. The main control unit of the units is equipped with a variety of microprocessors that make it possible to “record” various settings regarding the main washing modes and special capabilities into the intelligence.
  4. The most spacious household washing machines can wash no more than 10 kg of laundry at a time, while industrial appliances can clean 15 and 30 kg of clothes.
  5. Industrial washing machines are capable of independently weighing items placed in the drum, and based on this, determining the required amount of resources for consumption, as well as the consumption of detergents.

The operational life of special machines used in enterprises is 7 years. This is quite a long time, since the loads experienced by the equipment are often simply colossal. With timely maintenance of equipment and carrying out preventive measures, the service life of industrial washing machines reaches 20-30 years.

How to choose the right machine?

Before purchasing a washing machine, it is important to carefully study its main characteristics. In most cases, the determining factor when choosing is the permissible load of the equipment. Therefore, first of all, calculate how much work clothes you will have to wash daily. Here we are not talking about the number of uniform sets, but about their total mass. Having calculated the weight, you can choose the model of the required power. Let's analyze the described actions using a specific example.

Let’s say that at a certain plant it is necessary to clean 30 kg of workwear per day. For the needs of the enterprise, an Asko WMC62 VG washing machine was purchased, which allows washing a maximum of 8 kg of clothes per cycle. The selected machine will handle a large number of uniform sets in 4 cycles. The average duration of a washing program is 70 minutes. So, in 4 hours and 40 minutes the machine will easily remove dirt from thirty kilograms of workwear. This indicator is the norm.

Let us present to your attention a brief overview of several industrial washing machines. Having studied the technical characteristics of the models and their approximate cost, you can decide on the choice of the optimal unit for cleaning uniforms.

Asko WMC62 VG

Professional equipment from the Swedish brand Asko has earned recognition from consumers all over the world. The latest technologies, latest developments, and the most durable electric motors are used in the production of washing equipment. Model Asko WMC62 VG is a reliable washing machine with a drain valve. The main technical characteristics of the unit are as follows:

  • the maximum permissible weight of laundry loaded into the drum is 8 kg;
  • microprocessor control technology;
  • 19 factory washing programs;

  • the highest energy saving class - “A++”;
  • drum volume – 60 liters.

 

Asko WMC62 VGSensiSave sensors allow you to recognize a lot of things loaded into the drum. Also, the device determines the type of fabric from which the clothes are made and, based on this, selects the necessary washing parameters, namely time, water heating temperature and the amount of liquid in the tank.

SmartSeal technology helps extend the maintenance-free life of equipment by eliminating the sealing collar found between the hatch door and the drum of every household washing machine. As you know, after a while the rubber begins to crack and leak, and emit an unpleasant smell of dampness. The Asko WMC62 VG machine is considered more hygienic and reliable in this regard, since there is no rubber seal to collect remaining water and debris.

The washing machine has a six-fold protection against emergency leaks AquaBlockSystem.
