Schmidt ｜Liquid system/Deicer｜Straliq
Concept
The Straliq is specially designed for spraying brine from large carrier vehicles using the three-lane spraying technique, which enables fast and efficient de-icing. The Straliq has a capacity of 1,981.3 - 3,962.6 gal, which means that very large areas can be de-iced in one operation, while the high quality polyethylene tanks are suitable for all de-icing agents. Significant savings in consumption of spraying materials can be achieved, especially down to 21°F.
Dosage and distribution system
The heart of the dosing system is either a 77.9 gal/min diaphragm pump or a centrifugal pump (max. 184.9 gal/min). The salt solution is applied from the rear of the vehicle via variable flow nozzles which ensure constant pressure and reduce mist formation. The spraying width can be individually adjusted to each lane down to the nearest metre.
Drive options
The Straliq can be driven by various systems, the simplest being connection to the hydraulics of the carrier vehicle. If none are available, the Rotopower drive offers an innovative and efficient option. Here, the rotation of the rear axle is taken directly from the hub without loss of power. Finally, the Straliq can be equipped with a diesel engine.
Control and information systems
The Straliq is operated from the driver's cab using the highly effective ES control panel. Easy-grip click-turn knobs and illuminated push buttons ensure that the driver can concentrate fully on the traffic and road conditions. In conjunction with the ThermoLogic and Route Assistant systems, the Straliq becomes even more efficient and resource-saving.
