safety conditions and cut labor costs at your facility...
Cost Analysis
Compares the Use
of Safety Kleen
Immersion Tanks
for Parts Washing
Versus Aqueous
Parts Washers Mayport
Naval Station
“Cost
and labor hour
savings can be
realized by cleaning
several parts
simultaneously
in the aqueous
parts washer. One
aqueous parts washer
can do the work
of three Safety
Kleen units. Many
activities are
currently using
aqueous parts washers
to do the work
of several chemical
solvent units.”

Aerospace
Guidance and Metrology
Center (Cleaning
inertial guidance
and navigation
system components)
The Aerospace
Guidance and Metrology
Center (AGMC) in
Heath, Ohio, is
responsible for
the repair of inertial
systems and components
used in the majority
of the aircraft
and missile systems
in the U.S. Air
Force. The sophisticated
assemblies that
form the nucleus
of inertial guidance
and navigation
systems are extremely
susceptible to
microscopic contamination.
System failure
can be caused by
a particle less
than one micron
(one millionth
of a meter) in
diameter. As a
result great care
must be taken to
assure consistently
clean components...
