waste into harmless byproducts using naturally occurring microbes. The bioremediation technology in the CRC SmartWasher breaks down grease, oil, and carbon-based contaminants, converting them to byproducts of carbon dioxide and water.
Cost savings A CRC SmartWasher can deliver cost savings compared to traditional parts washers. There is no ongoing purchase of solvent cleaners, waste is minimised, and there are no contracts – eliminating hazardous waste removal contracts. Using the SmartWasher also reduces compliance costs – there are no hazardousgoods or environmental storage requirements.
How does it work? Oil contaminants enter the solution as parts are washed. The surfactant in the OzzyJuice solution emulsifies the oils, and then the emulsified oil is eaten by the Ozzy microbes. Oil is converted into water and carbon dioxide. The SmartWasher heats and circulates the OzzyJuice, and the OzzyJuice cleans the parts. The OzzyMat releases microbes into the cleaning fluid to break down and eat oil, grease and carbon-based contaminants, creating a selfcleaning system.
Models to suit all applications The SW-23 is the most popular model. It is small enough that it doesn’t take up much space but large enough to suit most workshops. It offers a 180kg weight capacity and is mobile. The SW-25 is a fixed location model, offering a higher weight capacity at 227kg, ideal for transmission specialists. The SW-28 is also a fixed location model, with a weight capacity of 227kg. Twin wash brushes allow two people to work at the same time. The SW-37 is a portable heavyweight model, handling up to 454kg. It offers an oversized sink to accommodate larger parts. There are also specific degreasing products to suit workshop requirements, including the SW-4 – for general-purpose heavy duty, and the SW-X1 for heavy diesel applications, which suits the removal of DEF (AdBlue), burnt-on carbon and tacky HD greases.
