      Frost protection (option)

      The frost protection device consists of a hot air blower and antifreezing circulation or frost protection with lost water.

      Note: The presence of a frost protection system ensures the following properties:

      • Restricted washing operation at temperatures below – 5 °C. In restricted washing operation the washing brush must be regularly checked for icing. Brush washing with an iced washing brush can damage the vehicle. If the washing brush is iced up, the washing brush must be disabled or, in the case of the 1-tool version, the combination spray lance must be replaced with a high-pressure spray lance. Please contact your Customer Service responsible if washing operation is to be extended to lower temperatures. At temperatures below –15 °C, washing makes no sense because an ice coating forms on the vehicle. This ice coating can even impair the function of important vehicle components. For this reason, you must lock the system at temperatures less than –15 °C.

      • Frost protection of the system down to –20 °C. At temperatures less than–20 °C the "Frost shutdown" procedure is to be performed.

      WARNING

      Frost protection water running onto the washing station can lead to the formation of black ice under frosty conditions.

      Insert the high-pressure gun into the brush chute after use.

      WARNING

      Black ice on the washing station presents an increased danger of accidents.

      Lock the washing station if there is a danger of black ice.

      Prerequisites for frost protection

      • An uninterruptible power supply and water supply must be ensured. The water supply must be protected against frost.

      • Technically correct erection and installation of the system.

      • The hot air blower is set correctly.

      • All maintenance measures described in the "Maintenance and care" chapter have been performed.

      • All cleaning tools are placed back in the tool holders.

      • The high-pressure gun with frost protection bore belonging to the system is installed.

      • The hose line from the system to the cleaning tool has not been extended or replaced with a longer hose.

      • The temperatures stated above relate to the installation site. Temperatures stated in weather forecasts are secondary.

      Hot air blower

      The hot air blower heats the interior of the system to provide frost protection.

      1. Turn the performance controller to level "I".


        1. Frost protection symbol
        2. Thermostat control
        3. Power controller
      2. Adjust the thermostat controller according to the exterior temperature:

        1. If the exterior temperature is higher than -10 °C, set the thermostat controller to the frost protection position.

        2. If the exterior temperature is lower than -10 °C, set the thermostat controller to level "I".

      Note: The frost protection device only works when the system is switched on and the door is closed. The trigger must therefore not be set to "0/OFF". The system power supply must not be interrupted either. Operation of the hot air blower is interrupted during operation of a high-pressure pump.

      DANGER

      The hot air blower can overheat and cause a fire if the air inlets and air outlets are covered.

      Never cover the air inlets and air outlets of the hot air blower.

      ATTENTION

      The frost protection cannot be maintained in the event of a power failure.

      Perform a frost protection shutdown in the case of a power failure.

      Anti-freezing circulation circuit

      If there is a risk of frost, circulating water flows through the cleaning tools and their supply lines, thus protecting them from freezing.

      The anti-freezing circulation circuit is placed in operation by the anti-freezing pump.

      The following components show that the system is equipped with an antifreezing circulation:


      1. Frost protection ball tap with sieve
      2. Frost protection float tank
      3. Frost prot. pump
      4. Frost protection pump filter

      Frost protection with lost water

      If there is a risk of frost, fresh water flows through the cleaning tools and their supply lines, thus protecting them from freezing. The water is then discharged into the waste water system.

      The presence of the frost protection solenoid valve indicates that the system is equipped with this frost protection version.


      1. Frost protection solenoid valve
      2. Frost protection ball tap

      Maintenance work before and after the frost period

      For a better overview, the maintenance work required to ensure correct operation of the frost protection system is summarised again here. To check the frost protection system, the work must also be performed annually before the frost period begins. The maintenance work described in the "Maintenance and care" chapter must also be performed in winter.

      Monitoring and safety devices

      Pressure relief valve

      If the lever of the high-pressure gun is released, the circulation valve opens but the high-pressure pump remains in operation. The high-pressure jet is immediately available when the trigger gun is opened again.

      Motor circuit breaker

      The motor circuit breaker shuts off the device if power consumption is too high.

      Winding protection contact

      A winding protection contact is only installed in models with 900 l/h.

      The winding protection contact in the motor winding of the pump drive sends a signal to the controller in the case of thermal overload. This switches the motor off.

      Temperature controller

      The temperature sensor switches the electrical heating element on when the water temperature in the hot water float tank falls and switches it off again when the maximum temperature is reached.

      Overheating protection

      The float switch in the hot water float tank switches the electrical heating element off if the water level is too low.

      Dry running sensor

      Prevents operation of the electric heating element when the hot water float tank is empty.

      Hard water sensor

      Only for systems with base exchanger.

      If the residual hardness of the softened water exceeds a limit value, the control calculates the residual capacity of the base exchanger bottle.

      Regeneration of the base exchanger bottle is started the following night at the latest.

      Pressure sensor

      Only for systems with reverse osmosis.

      If there is water shortage, the system is stopped to prevent the RO pump from running dry.

      Buffer tank full level switch

      Only for systems with reverse osmosis.

      Switches off the RO pump when the permeate buffer tank is full.

      Buffer tank full level switch

      Only for systems with reverse osmosis.

      Switches on the RO pump when the permeate buffer tank is full.
