OverviewMEIKO cart washers (example model: MEIKO WS 125) are industrial cleaning systems engineered to clean and disinfect catering trolleys, service carts, bed frames and other bulky items commonly used in healthcare and foodservice environments. The unit features dual wash and rinse nozzles positioned left, right and overhead that travel along the cart, ensuring multiple passes over all surfaces. The wash chamber is dimensioned for bulky loads and offers flush-to-floor entry for ergonomic handling.
How it worksThe system circulates wash water and directs it via a sloping floor into sieve-box filter systems that remove debris. When the cart reaches the wash position, an automatic tilting function inclines the floor and cart to drain internal compartments efficiently. Wide nozzle openings combined with a high‑volume air fan deliver strong hot-air drying for short cycle times.
Highlights- Dual wash and rinse systems on left, right and over the cart for multiple passes of all surfaces
- Wash water filter system: inclined floor directs wash water and debris into sieve boxes for filtration
- Generously sized wash chamber with flush entry to floor for ergonomic loading/unloading
- Automatic cart tilting for efficient internal drainage
- Wide nozzle openings and high-volume airflow for effective drying
- Programmable logic controller (PLC) for control, regulation and hygiene documentation
- Chemical-thermal wash and disinfection option compliant with AK-BWA requirements for cart/bedframe decontamination
- Reduced consumption values versus previous model generations (lower connected load and reduced rinse water volume)
Advantages- Optimised resource use and lower operating costs through reduced electricity and water consumption
- Hygienic processing: debris filtered from wash water and internal compartments drained for effective decontamination
- Ergonomic operation: flush floor entry and automatic tilting simplify loading and unloading
- Flexible integration: available as individual machines or part of customised systems; compatible with a wide range of cart and trolley types
- Powerful drying enables short cycle times and ready-to-use trolleys after the programme
Notes on performance / energyManufacturer figures: connected load reduced by 26% and rinse water volume reduced by 33% compared to the previous model generation.
