Low Pressure Sprays (Rotary Spray Washers) Environment Most issues will be related to the cleaning liquid used and the contaminant being removed. Low-pressure rinse systems are not necessarily low liquid flow. Liquid wastes may be generated at a high rate. In addition, consumption of fresh liquid may be high. Liquid wastes may be recirculated through a storage tank, which allows separation of liquid and contaminant. The contaminant removed from the parts being cleaned may become a waste that has to be treated. Make sure that the supply of water, if used, is adequate for the anticipated requirements. In some areas, the availability of new water permits is limited. Do NOT assume that water can be sprayed in the open and allowed to run to drain. Check with the local water and sewer authorities first.
