ISTOBAL HW’DRIVE The most flexible drive through system
The Drive Through car wash systems of ISTOBAL have been designed and developed taking into account the specific needs of transport companies and their car wash experience gained all along the years. This is why the two models in the range are compact, have a solid design and reliable mechanics, always ensuring an efficient result: ISTOBAL HW’DRIVE2 is especially intended for trolley buses and trams, and ISTOBAL HW’DRIVE3 is ideal to meet the specific needs of different bus fleets. Based on the drive through system and driver interaction, both models have been designed with a focus on safety and comfort as maximum priorities, and both are extremely versatile as regards the configuration of the wash and the smooth and precise movement of the polyethylene brushes, always ensuring the best finish.

The model ISTOBAL HW’DRIVE2 has been designed to fulfil different demands with large vehicles, from bus or trolley bus fleets to any type of trams. This model has a lower height and it is open at the top, which makes it suitable for vehicles with an overhead catenary. It includes a pre-soak arch, two rinsing arches, a displaced technical board with a touch screen, soft starters for its four brushes, and speed detection to avoid vehicle impacts. Until now it was unachievable to reach spectacular results in drive though tram wash and ISTOBAL guarantees it with our ISTOBAL HW’DRIVE2 model.

SPLIT FRONT BRUSHES A patented split-brush system prevents front mirrors from being damaged by lifting the top section of the front brushes. The bottom section brushes the vehicle front. The horizontal brush ensures the perfect cleaning of the vehicle roof for a variety of heights thanks to the 1,500 mm [4’-1”] lifting system integrated into the machine structure HORIZONTAL BRUSH FEATURES SPEED DETECTION Thanks to three pairs of photocells, the system detects if the vehicle reaches the speed limit. If this is the case, the front brushes are automatically opened before the vehicle reaches them, or the machine stops and stays in emergency mode.
