System Design
RST-5 is very easy to use, when used correctly!It is important that the washing and waste treatment stations are properly designed and configured for each customer's premises. We cannot expect the same equipmenmt to be suitable for a 3 man operation as for a 300 man lamination plant. To ensure each customer is correctly equipped, Chymera will audit your premises and make recommendations as to the most appropriate type of equipment. Chymera have successfully installed RST-5 cleaning systems in a wide range of customer's premises and have used many different configurations:

Spinners
To quickly and easily clean and dry large "fluffy" rollers, Chymera have available a specially designed, polypropylene Spinner which can be hung on one of the PP tanks, or a simple waste container.
The roller is washed in RST-5™ and then inserted into the Spinner which uses compressed air to rapidly spin the roller, drying the sheath.
Excess waste is channelled into a collection vessel situated below the spinner.
The brush spinner quickly dries all brushes and prevents spray.
