- shipped fully assembled and transported via standard container or trailer
- backed by a 2-year manufacturer’s warranty
Modular Design with Inner & Outer Cylinder
The inner-outer cylinder construction of every module allows for total control over the wash process, and each module is programmable to perform a complete bath exchange when necessary. Conversely, single-cylinder batch washers require more space and modules to properly wash laundry. Single-cylinder washers also require preheating and do not allow for total control of chemicals, steam, baths and drainage.
Flexibility & Programmability
Superior programmability along with its series of identical, highly flexible wash modules, allows for infinite configurability to meet very specific laundry needs of each customer and load. The TBS-50 is programmable by module for water temperature and levels, duration of the wash cycle, mechanical action, bath partitions, rapid draining, chemical injection, closing parameters and more. It’s easy to use and offers a clear graphic display showing real-time process data.
Central Control – The Continuous Batch Washing System
The TBS-50 Batch Washer's Central Control seamlessly links and controls all components of the Girbau Industrial Continuous Washing System. An Ethernet-type industrial network centralizes the information from all system components – conveyors, Batch Washer, SPR-50 Press and ST-100 Dryer – and details the information on a computer display for easy management and control. It allows operators to manage more than 999 client accounts and offers 99 individual washing programs.
Production Management in a Graphic Environment
The control's graphic management system allows operators to select different management options with a simple click of the mouse—providing quick and easy control over every facet of the laundry system. The central control's computer can be located in a remote location away from equipment, such as in a manager's office. That control allows the user to make changes to equipment formulas and save those changes for a later time.Processing Reports/Data in Real Time
The control's computer system allows users to run control reports detailing production, temperature, dosing, pump flow, mechanical action/cycle, press pressure, drying programs, customer screens descriptions, diagnostics, records of alarms and more. All data is exportable in spreadsheet form using MS Excel.Clear Graphics & Simple to Use
Clearly illustrated graphic icons make it easy to use the Control. Real time data regarding the wash process can be viewed from the main screen of the control, and from easily accessed sub-screens. View program, customer, loads, water temperatures, chemical injection, cycle time and productions.
Top Transfer Eliminates Mixing of Baths from Module to Module
A wide top-transfer opening at every module assures laundry passes from one module to another without mixing baths. During transfers from module to module, sensors monitor and confirm conditions are met for transferring the load without tie-ups and jams.
Traceability and Disinfection
The TBS-50 is configurable to properly clean and sanitize loads. Steam injectors and intermediate filter tanks work to ensure particles from the rinse cycle aren't recovered and redeposited during the wash process. The washer's independent modules and steam inlets totally permeate the load at the temperatures and conditions required to properly disinfect laundry. Each module has the option for a steam inlet, and the outer cylinders of each module ensure proper chemical dosing at every stage of the wash process.
Requires Less Water
The TBS-50 Batch Washer reuses water at specific points during the wash process. The freshest rinse water is used on the cleanest linen to ensure pristine wash results. Once the load is rinsed, the used rinse water is redirected to a holding tank and used a second time to wash another load of soiled goods.
Reduced Maintenance & Installation Costs
The Washer is transportable fully assembled within a single standard container or trailer—lowering shipping costs. Because it’s pre-assembled, installation is completed in considerably less time—saving money. Its dual-cylinder design means it properly cleans using less space than single-cylinder models.
Durable Construction
Durability of construction characterizes the TBS-Batch Washer from the rest. It's backed by a two-year limited parts warranty.
