1. Vehicle positioning in front of the drying portal. The washportal is in starting position behind the drying portal.

2. The drying portal idly moves over the vehicle to the directionof the hall entrance in its waiting position. Depending onthe accessory equipment selected, the high-pressure wash and/or the foam application is carried out during the idlecycle.

3. The wash portal begins the wash in the forward cycletime-delayed.

4. An additional drying aid or wax conservation is appliedduring the wash return cycle.

5. The drying portal subsequently starts before the wash cycleis completely finished. Time-saving vehicle drying - carriedout in just one operating cycle.

Christ VARIUS 1+1

Two units work hand in hand and give a distinctlysuperior performance. We call this proven successformula from Christ AG the 1 + 1 formula.

Wash and drying portals work solo and are thus ableto simultaneously carry out different operating cycles.High-performance dryers leave the vehicle completelydry after just one vehicle pass.

The result:Remarkable time and operation costs savings

Solo wash and dry The time-saving principle


Drying

Pivoting roof blower The 1 + 1 unit serially includes a contour-follo-wing roof jet as well as two contour-followingside jets.

The complete blower body is pivoted at a 60° angle on the vehicle’s front and rear parties andachieves improved drying results on special vehicleareas by means of its slanted position.

Drying in just one operating cycleThe drying portal starts in its return cycle once thewash sequence has ended.The powerful blowers dry the vehicle in just one ope-rating cycle, which is one of the primary reductions inthe total washing and drying time of the 1 + 1.

User-friendlyEasy access to the front side where the water main-tenance and the control cabinet are housed. High-grade door elements guard splashing water fromreaching the inside components.

Water maintenance

Control panelModern water and air technology are located behindthis device. A controller and a manometer for the air-pressure, pneumatic oiler and water pressure monitordisable washing without water. The unit switches toemergency switch-off should the water level drop toolow.

Dosing deviceElectrically controlled dosing pumps ensure that thechemical concentrates in each container are mixedprecisely. In addition to the standard lifting setting,Christ’s dosing pumps additionally feature a frequen-cy control for fine setting. Settings can be made fromthe control console.

Medium containerThe unit can be equipped with upto 6 medium containers dependingon the amount of programs offered.The plastic containers feature ascale and so simplify consumptionmonitoring.

Level monitoringA level switch, which emits an auto-matic reserve message, is located inthe medium containers.This ensures that the medium con-tainers are filled on time and thusprevents wash chemicals from run-ning dry.

omponents.

Unit controlThe clearly laid out switchboard is located behind an additional transparent protective door. Compact industrial SPC-control with a modern bus system forms the heart of the wash unit computer. The multisidedfunctions are precisely controlled and guarantee that the sequence of operations are carried out safely.

Switchgear

Diagnosis systemThe electronics monitor the most important compo-

nents of the wash unit. Error notices and breakdownsare indicated in the clear text display. Fast self-help is

enabled by the acknowledgement system.

Brush controlUsing the current consumption rate, performance

modules measure the wash cylinder’s applied pressure.Moderate application of the cylinders serve for a

gentle vehicle wash.

Variable and smoothFrequency converters control the electromotor’straction and lifiting drives. Variable and smooth

movement sequences optimise the operating cycles.

High-pressure

Wheel wash device Stabile stainless steel design.Linear guidance of the inter-

nally irrigated wheel washbrushes.Large disc diameterfor 19” aluminium rims. An

excellent cleaning perfor-mance is delivered by pulsa-

ting brushes that changerotation direction during the

wash. Wheel detection viaphotocells.

Underbody washerTwo rotating high-pressure jets located on the underbody’s mobile car-riage, spray the vehicle’s underside with 85 bar pressure. A vehiclelength measurement ensures that spraying is stopped exactly at the vehicle’s rear, preventing any spraying over and away from the vehicle.

Pre-wash with oscillating all-around high-pressureThe high-pressure wash is carried out simultaneously to the idle cycle ofthe drying portal. The jets work with 50 bar pressure and completely cover the vehicle’s surfaces in a 25° oscillating movement. The nozzlefittings are motorically driven. Four point of spray jets are allocated oneach roof and side nozzle fitting.The result is excellent cleaning results, a reduction on operating cyclesand a fast total wash time.

Additional program

Wax deviceWax is applied to the vehicle’s paint surface in an extra operating cycle to achieve a high gloss effect. Largesurface water sheeting for catalysing the drying process and permanent paint surface protection. This care program improves the vehicles conservation of value and expands the amount of programs thatcan be offered.
