Systemwash AquaJet3 Installation For A Dairy Farm In Atherstone
What they needed
We were asked to supply and install a new high-performance wall-mounted pressure washer system for a dairy farmer in Atherstone. The customer needed a more powerful and reliable solution for cleaning down the dairy after each herd visit, as his existing equipment was struggling to keep up with daily demands.
Problem / Requirement
- Existing machine: The farmer was using an unreliable Kränzle pressure washer that frequently failed and wasn’t suitable for heavy, regular dairy cleaning.
- Main issues: Lack of power, poor reliability, and increased downtime during daily washdowns.
- Site conditions: Cleaning takes place after each cow visit, requiring regular, efficient washdowns in a demanding environment.
- Usage: Daily use for dairy cleaning and hygiene maintenance.
The customer needed a stronger, more durable system that could deliver consistent performance and reduce interruptions to the milking routine.
Our Solution / Work Carried Out
- Supplied and installed a SystemWash AquaJet 3 stainless steel three-phase cold wall-mounted pressure washer for maximum durability and power.
- Mounted the unit securely to the wall to keep it off the floor and protect it from dirt, water, and equipment movement in the dairy.
- Raised the machine to a safe height so the cows could not reach or damage the unit during milking or movement in the dairy.
- Fitted protective edging around the outside of the frame to prevent the cows from catching or injuring themselves on any sharp corners.
- Installed a chemical injector to allow for low-pressure chemical application during washdowns, helping break down dirt and improve hygiene.
- Set up the system to provide a reliable high-pressure feed to make dairy washdowns quicker and easier after each milking session.
- Installed the system in a fixed position to provide a clean, organised, and permanent washdown point.
- Commissioned the machine on-site and ensured the customer was fully trained and confident in operating the system.
The Result
- The new AquaJet 3 system delivers significantly more power and performance compared to the previous Kränzle unit.
- Cleaning the dairy after each herd visit is now quicker, easier, and more efficient.
- The chemical injector allows effective low-pressure detergent application, improving cleaning results and hygiene.
- Raising the machine prevents cows from reaching or damaging the equipment, improving reliability and reducing the risk of downtime.
- Protective edging ensures there are no exposed sharp edges, helping maintain a safe environment for livestock and staff.
- The wall-mounted design keeps the equipment protected, tidy, and out of the working area.
- The customer now has a reliable, high-duty cleaning system suitable for daily agricultural use, reducing downtime and improving hygiene.
