WASHER EXTRACTORS
says that when it comes to investing in new laundry solutions, the machines are the visible part of an iceberg but there is an awful lot more going on under the waterline. She says that Domus pays attention to the part of that unseen part of the iceberg to optimise expenses, arguing that what matters is not the purchase price of a machine but the total cost of ownership during its life cycle. Domus washer-extractors offer a high G factor for more efficient spinning. It claims its DHS washer-extractor with its 500 G spin can reduce topical drying times from 45 minutes to just 25 minutes and offer a 50% energy cost reduction, low water consumption via Domus touch II technology. On a 100% cotton towelling full load in a 28 kg washer its figures show consumption of just 6.6L/kg including pre wash, wash and three rinses.
Water savings are achieved by using the inbuilt weighing system which can make significant savings on part loads. Chemicals savings, meanwhile, are achieved via the Touch II microprocessor which allows configuration of the machine to levels to achieve chemicals savings as well as water and energy savings, no matter the load level. The lesser the load, the more the savings. Water recovery is via Domus’ ECOTANK and ECOTANK XL. Ecotank XL is a new centralised tank that can be connected to one or more machines. Each tank is
1.000 litres, with 1 to 3 tanks available. “In a DHS-80C Touch II washer we can achieve up to 56% water savings thanks to Ecotank XL if we load 60% of the capacity with towels, in the washing machine alone it will use 656 litres but in a washing machine with Ecotank XL it is just 288 litres,” says Colomer. As for energy, Domus claims it can achieve 12% electricity savings with the same load and Ecotank XL. Washing machine on its own will use 21.37 kW/h and with the washing machine hooked up to an Ecotank XL you get 18.80kW/h, says Colomer who adds that the data is based on tests with an 80kg washer with a 60% load with towels.
