    Are there any freelance PLC programmers out there?

    Hello all...long time no type! Sold my 3 bay SS wash in 2018. I've been asked to find someone who can program a PLC to operate a new "entry level" automatic that is being developed. Can someone point me in the right direction please? TIA! Dan in Oklahoma

    Unitec Sierra interface to online e-commerce site?

    Is there a way to interface the products offered on a WashSelect 2 to be sold via an e-commerce website without the need for user intervention for fulfillment? Perhaps an API or other means provided by Unitec?? As always, looking for the path of least resistance! Thanks in advance!

    Looking for a simple way to deliver Low Pressure chemical using High Pressure pump

    Thanks guys. Keep that info coming! Can someone tell me more about the preferred foam gun setup? Is it an air/chemical mixture, sent to bay with a FloJet like my FB? Do your foam guns mount on a boom, or just solid mount on bay wall with coil hose? Any special cold weather considerations?

    Looking for a simple way to deliver Low Pressure chemical using High Pressure pump

    My local parts/soap supplier tells me that he has installed a setup at another wash that delivers the LP chemicals to the bay via the HP pumps and hose/wand, thus eliminating the need for secondary LP pumps and shortening delivery time. He told me that he uses a solenoid as a bypass to decrease...

    Foamers or No Foamers for Foam Brush

    Slash, do the foamers allow you use a lower dilution on the chemical, or less pressure/flow from the chemical supply?

    Foamers or No Foamers for Foam Brush

    I am on my third MixRite unit! All of them have developed a pin hole leak on the outlet side, just above the threaded outlet pipe. There seems to be a weak spot in the plastic where the injection mold seam comes together. FWIW.

    Getnbusy, care to share a diagram or photo of your setup? I have air, chemical, hoses, and a flojet pump available. Just need guidance.

    Foamers or No Foamers for Foam Brush

    If I may revive an old thread here... I have never used a FloJet in my wash. But, I do have them on the soda machine at my pizzeria! My question is, for just a little 3 bay SS, can I use one FloJet to pump the FB soap into a set of 3 "homemade pvc style foamers" in the equipment room, then...

    Need ideas on finishing retrofit of new meter boxes

    Folks, I am retrofitting new stainless steel meter boxes into my 25-year-old poured concrete pedestals. Can you help me brainstorm on some ideas on trimming out around the boxes? If you could supply pics of your idea (if used in real life), it would be very helpful! Thanks!

    What do you think about these financials?

    The credit card cost did not make into the "Total" column. As such, I wondered why there was just one entry for the year's expense.

    3/8" Hose to 1/4" Hose

    I have used both in my wash, and I certainly prefer the 1/4" hose. It is noticeably lighter and more user-friendly, especially for the ladies, I suspect. Does anyone know if the smaller diameter hose would adversely affect the water flow or pressure? If so, would an adjustment need to be...

    Consider ingredient co-branding to brand and image the wash Robert, what do you mean by "ingredient co-branding"? :confused:
