Vortex
The World's Most Powerful Cleaning Machine
   |
||
What Is The Vortex ? Vortex Is The World's Most Powerful Cleaning Machine. The Vortex is an inventor's dream of a better cleaning machine come true. The Vortex is the only mass produced mobile cleaning machine in the world capable of safely capturing wasted energy from its own engine exhaust to heat water. Additionally, the machine's high-torque, high-efficiency power plant allows three operators to clean from one machine simultaneously, while decreasing fuel consumption by over 40% and improving textile dry times by over 47%. |

Brute Power. All major textile manufacturers are in agreement that “hot water extraction with maximum moisture and residue removal” is the right way to take care of their goods. This is where brute power comes into play. More vacuum means a better clean, faster drying, faster cleaning, and much happier clients than your competition has. More vacuum means you can use |

more hot water in the cleaning process* and still beat the competition hands down on dry times. (Some Vortex owners have a "dry when we leave your home" policy with the help of carpet fans!) More vacuum means more money in your pocket. There's no two ways about it. The Vortex machine uses the largest, most powerful blower of any mass produced PTO cleaning machine in the world. From left to right the blower sizes are #3, #4, #5, and #6. The industry standard is a #4 size blower. The Vortex model 6008 uses a #6 blower, and the new Vortex 7000 HAT uses a much larger, high performance #6 blower. *Vortex owners are able to provide a method of cleaning commonly referred to as an "On Location Carpet Washing Service" by increasing the amount of water used in the cleaning process to double that of industry standard. The Vortex vacuum pump has more than enough power to recover the additional water and still provide significantly faster dry times than the competition. The World's Most Powerful Cleaning Machine Is Also The Quietest. The new model 7000 HAT is the only cleaning machine in the world equipped with the Tuthill "Harmonics and Attenuation Tuned" blower. The new 7000 is bigger, 35% queiter, requires less maintenance and runs optimally at only 69.1% of it's capacity ~ compared to over 85% before! Vortex is always ahead of the competition. Isn't it time you stepped up the profitability and power of your business? |

What Does The Vortex Do?
|
||
The Vortex machine is powered from the truck's diesel engine and the water used for cleaning is heated from the truck's exhaust pipe. To operate the Vortex you simply leave the truck engine running with the transmission in park, engage the Vortex PTO (Power Take Off) from the Vortex instrument/control panel and adjust your cleaning settings. The Power Take Off is mounted to the truck's automatic transmission and transfers the energy from the diesel engine to the vacuum pump, water pump and Xentherm fluid transfer pump via a series of shaft, belts, and pulleys.

Vortex patented technology changed the cleaning industry forever. Some owners call the BIG Truck a "new revolution in cleaning". We call it Xentherm. (Pronounced "Zentherm") Before the introduction of the Vortex, PTO cleaning machines were limited on the amount of energy they could collect from the van's engine for heating water. This was because there was no system in existence that could collect the wasted energy of the truck's exhaust system without potentially freezing the heat exchangers, or having to re-route the vehicle's exhaust system into the body of the truck or near the operator. |
||
 |
||
Here's how it works: The truck engine stays running to power the cleaning machine. As the truck's engine exhaust gas leaves the truck muffler it is re-routed into a heat exchanger mounted under the truck. This heat exchanger is full of a high temperature synthetic fluid called Xentherm. As the hot exhaust passes through the heat exchanger tubes, the Xentherm fluid is heated up. The fluid is then pumped to the machine to be used to heat the water for cleaning. A high temperature liquid transfer pump (Xentherm Pump) continually circulates the fluid between the heat exchanger under the truck and the heat exchanger on the machine. The exchange of energy under the truck is hot exhaust gas to Xentherm fluid. The exchange of energy at the machine is Xentherm fluid to water which is then used for cleaning. Xentherm fluid cannot freeze because it is an oil. |
