A clean affair with Perkins® 400 Series engines – Cus­tomized high-pres­sure clean­ers to meet all requirements

Aquila A/S is a Dan­ish com­pa­ny, which spe­cialis­es in devel­op­ing cus­tomised high-pres­sure clean­ers. The com­pa­ny pro­duces a full range of high-pres­sure clean­ers from 150‑1500 bar for pro­fes­sion­al use with empha­sis on a user-friend­ly oper­a­tion, reli­a­bil­i­ty, qual­i­fied sup­port from a strong and qual­i­fied dis­trib­u­tor net­work and with a strong back office in Denmark.

Aquila is a com­pa­ny, that with less than 20 employ­ees, are a lead­ing man­u­fac­tur­er of high-pres­sure clean­ers in Europe and Scan­di­navia based on more than 40 years of expe­ri­ence. They sell and deliv­er their sophis­ti­cat­ed high-pres­sure clean­ers to a wide range of indus­tries and busi­ness­es. The com­pa­ny has expand­ed their suc­cess in Den­mark, to oth­er Euro­pean coun­tries, includ­ing Nor­way, Swe­den and France.

Aquila’s machine devel­op­ment is based on four stan­dard­ised cat­e­gories in dif­fer­ent sizes deter­mined by water pres­sure, flow and size of the engine and tank as well as appli­ca­tion options. In addi­tion, they spe­cialise in build­ing on demand and are hap­py to tai­lor the machine to suit the customer’s needs.

BU Pow­er Sys­tems Den­mark is proud to sup­port this qual­i­ty-ori­ent­ed cus­tomer and pro­vide them with the Perkins 403J-E17T (36 kW), the 404J-E22T (45 kW) and 404J-E22TA (55 kW) engines for their Maxi machine mod­els: The Maxi machine is a pow­er­ful sys­tem with a Perkins 4‑cylinder engine up to 60 KW. The Maxi clean­er has a water pres­sure of 180–800 bar and a flow of 23–100 litres per minute. The built-in water tank has a capac­i­ty of 1000 litres and is even avail­able with a heat exchang­er for improved econ­o­my and envi­ron­ment. Among oth­er things, the Maxi clean­er can be used for indus­tri­al clean­ing and petro­chem­i­cal indus­try, con­crete reme­di­a­tion, indus­tri­al floors and epoxy as well as clean­ing at ship­yards and railways.

“We are con­vinced that the Perkins® 400 Series engines are most suit­able for our machines because we focus on longevi­ty and robust­ness. Fur­ther, the engines meet the lat­est Stage V emis­sion stan­dard, are envi­ron­men­tal­ly friend­ly and have low fuel con­sump­tion”, says Tor­ben Andreasen, CEO of Aquila. “The Perkins 400 Series is a proven fam­i­ly of engines designed to give opti­mised per­for­mance and robust tech­nol­o­gy appro­pri­ate for the small­er engine sec­tor. The 3‑cylinder, 1.7 litre 403J-E17T mod­el pro­vides up to 36 kW. That is ide­al for a wide range of small off-high­way appli­ca­tions such as Aquila’s high-pres­sure clean­ers. Its dimen­sions and ease of instal­la­tion are an addi­tion­al plus. Designed to offer high per­for­mance, the Perkins^® 400 Series pro­vides impres­sive lev­els of refine­ment and proven field reli­a­bil­i­ty. A stan­dard 500-hour ser­vice inter­val con­tributes to the low over­all cost of own­er­ship. A range of options ensures you have the per­fect­ly tai­lored mod­el for your appli­ca­tions and mar­kets.”, explains Mar­tin Ras­mussen, Man­ag­ing Direc­tor at BU Pow­er Sys­tems Den­mark. “So far we are very hap­py with the suc­cess­ful coop­er­a­tion and are look­ing for­ward to con­tin­u­ing our part­ner­ship,” men­tions Tor­ben Andreasen.
