SUBJECT:
New Environmentally Safe Parts Washer
MODELS:
All
Situation:
The use of mineral spirits and other petrochemicals for the purposes of degreasing vehicle components has become highly regulated in the workplace. These chemicals may have adverse effects on the environment.
Correction:
ChemFree TM Corporation offers for sale to BMW dealers the ChemFree SmartWasher TM. The SmartWasher utilizes an environmentally friendly parts washing system. The SmartWasher system continues BMW's policy of actively pursuing products which reduce the Environmental Regulatory impact of service shop operations and positively affect the environment by controlling pollution. The SmartWasher was tested and approved by BMW under actual shop conditions.
The SmartWasher can save you money.
1. No administrative, transportation or disposal costs for flammable petrochemical solvents.
2. No expensive fluid changes. It uses a safe (water based) solution that maintains its effectiveness through repeated uses and requires no replacement.
3. No expensive disposal contracts or regulatory reporting required since no hazardous by-products are created.
4. No monthly service costs or maintenance contracts are required.
How the SmartWasher works
1. The SmartWasher will not create environmental or employee hazardous material safety concerns. The cleaning fluid is a PH balanced fluid (PH = 7 which is the PH of water). There is no need for special disposal of regulatory reporting. The SmartWasher uses Bioremediation which is a process that uses live microorganisms called OzzyEnzymes to eat and digest the contaminants such as grease that is removed from dirty parts. The cleaning fluid is nonflammable, has no flash point and is nontoxic.
2. The cleaning solution is kept so clean by the OzzyEnzymes that it never requires replacement. Additional fluid needs to be added periodically because of evaporation.
3. The cleaning solution is a powerful degreaser. It does not use harsh solvents to dissolve the grease like conventional parts washers. The SmartWasher uses a fluid that breaks the surface tension of the grease and then lifts the grease off of the part.
What must be periodically replaced
1. The solution must be periodically topped off due to evaporation. The "add fluid" light will let you know when to do this.
2. The filter must be replaced once a month in order to maintain the optimum level of microbe effectiveness.
The OzzyEnzymes are Safe
Completely safe. All types of microorganisms exist in your every day life. The microorganisms used in this product are so safe that they were used to help clean up the Alaskan Oil spill from the Valdez in 1989.
