What the AI looks for in Parts Washers
- Solvent vs. aqueous
- Choose solvent units for heavy grease and aqueous or ultrasonic units for lower fire risk and fine parts. They differ in cleaning speed, fire risk and fluid disposal.
- Fire safety
- Solvent tanks need a fusible-link lid that closes automatically in a fire. Mineral spirits are flammable.
- Tank size
- Size the tank to the largest part you will clean, such as a transmission case or cylinder head. A tank that is too small forces you to clean parts in pieces.
- Filtration
- Look for a replaceable pump filter or a settling screen. It extends solvent life and protects the pump.
Brands that matter
- Graymills: Professional solvent and aqueous parts washers.
- Safety-Kleen: Parts washer and solvent recycling service for shops.
What to avoid
- Using gasoline as solvent
- Running the pump without a filter
