ABSTRACT:
An apparatus is provided to efficiently clean a mat or a screen. The screen or mat is placed on or within a frame and within an enclosure; large volumes of pressurized water and/or cleaning solvent are simultaneously directed towards one or more sides of the screen or mat. Temperature sensors in combination with a heating element and ph detectors are controlled by a pre-programmed system controller to insure that the temperature of the water is maintained within a specified range and that the water recycled within the apparatus is within an acceptable limit of contamination. A preferred design of the apparatus includes a mobile frame that is moved to the initial location of the mat and then returned to the enclosure while bearing the mat. The mobile frame reduces a risk of injury to cleaning personnel. A truck may be configured to carry one or more apparatus from site to site to allow customer based site cleaning opportunities.
