Duplex Steamtech 4000 Industrial Streamer - 2003017

What are the benefits of steam cleaning?

Steam cleaning machines are very environmentally friendly as they use very little water when compared to conventional cleaning methods like mopping or pressure washing.

The steam produced by the Steamtech 4000 is also at a temperature of 180ºC hot enough that it sanitises as it removes dirt, this means if you are cleaning in a food production area there is no need for chemicals to be used. We have found this to be an especially important factor for plants that specialise in the production of Halal food products as a lot of cleaning chemicals usually have some alcohol content that is banned for use in these areas.

In an industrial or manufacturing setting, steam cleaning offers a way of shifting grease and grime without having excessive quantities of detergent and water present.  Steam can be an effective method of removing a build-up of release agent from a machine or just cleaning down the floor and surrounding equipment after production has finished.

What accessories does the Steamtech 4000 come with?

The machine comes supplied with a comprehensive 6/8 Bar wand and floor toolset as well as a hand tool set. The standard machine comes with a 3-metre hose, and a 12 Metre hose set is available should it be required.

At this point, we would once again recommend having a demonstration to ensure you are looking at the correct accessories to get the best from your machine.

What is Dry Steam?

The Steamtech 4000 produces steam that has very low water content; this can be as low as 5% volume meaning you use very little water during cleaning. Many normal cleaning methods involve a process where dirt and grime are washed off and simply moved from where it was to a pool on the floor or in a recess, this pool is then collected by mop, vacuum, or cloth. With the small amount of water within the steam from the Steamtech 4000, there is a very little solution to collect; in fact, most of the dirty solution is collected near instantly at the source by the onboard vacuum leaving very little if any residue to collect afterwards.

In industries such as food production, it is not practical to have vast pools of water forming anywhere especially if it could run off or into machines causing contamination.

How does Chemical Injection work?

The Steamtech 4000  is fitted with an onboard chemical injection system, this allows for specialist chemicals to be injected into the steam. These are generally not required for most applications but some tasks such as chewing gum removal can benefit from them. If you are unsure if you need any chemicals with your machine having a free demo will almost certainly help you decide if you need chemicals and if so which ones.
