Simple Design. Superior Cleaning. Proven Results.
ForBest aqueous parts cleaning systems are based on Warren Chemical's unmatched SeaWash fluids. These systems eliminate all waste streams, clean equivalently to solvents, and reduce operating costs by 40-60%.
The ForBest SeaWasher Cleaning Process:
- Parts Cleaning: Oil, grease, and other soils are cleaned from the part by the SeaWash solution, broken down, and washed down the SeaWasher's drain. A safe rust inhibitor in the solution prevents any flash rusting of parts.
- Initial Filtration: Inert solids (nuts, bolts, gaskets, lent, grit, etc.) are filtered from the solution by the sink strainer and the reusable, stainless steel drain filter (typically less than a fistful per month). The filtered SeaWash solution and oil and grease pass through the filter and into the fluid reservoir below.
- In-System Bioremediation: Once in the reservoir, most of the oil and grease is emulsified into the SeaWash solution (a small amount will float on the liquid surface in the reservoir, providing an evaporation barrier and a continuous food source for the microbes). The ForBest microbes eat the emulsified oil and grease, continuously converting it to harmless carbon dioxide, water, and more microbes! The result is that the SeaWash solution is constantly being cleaned and there is never a need to dispose of spent parts cleaning fluid!
- Periodic Reservoir Filtration: Periodically (every 6 to 18 months), biomass and fine particulate sludge (carbon, clays, etc.) are filtered from the reservoir using the 25-micron System Cleaning Filter. The process is simple, using the SeaWasher's Flo-Thru Brush and the fluid pump, and the filter is disposable.
Other SeaWasher features:
- Fluid Level Indicator: Simple design has no electrical or mechanical parts (it's based on a simple plumber's float), so there's nothing to break.
- Pump On/Off Switch: Simple, boot-protected toggle switch operates the fluid pump.
- Flow Nozzle & Flow-Thru Brush: Provide two convenient ways to clean parts. Solution flow can be diverted through one or both. And by simply using the SeaWasher to clean parts, the system's solution is mixed and aerated, optimizing the in-system bioremediation.
- System Heater & Fluid Pump: The SeaWasher's heater is self-regulated and maintains the fluid at a comfortable temperature for optimum cleaning and bioremediation. These are the only two electro-mechanical components, maximizing the reliability of the SeaWasher system. Their unique hang-mount design and plugged power cords allow for extremely easy repair, should a problem ever occur.
