The Vader I 5000 trailer washing system is a self-contained unit that reclaims 99 percent of water used in cleaning operations. The I 5000 uses a shielded brush action to remove road film, soot and chemical deposits. The Vader can wash up to 20 trailers on a single tank of water. System takes six to eight minutes per trailer.
