HelioJET® Dairy Farm Case Study Background A large dairy farm in Virginia had been in the market for improved ways to wash their empty trailers. Historically, they had used a standard hose and spray nozzle attached to a Strahman mixing valve station. They had several issues with their set up. First, they found the mixing valve to lack the high pressure wash they desired. Second, they realized that their mixing valves were inefficient to operate. Finally, the mixing valves caused ergonomic nightmares for fork lift operators (loose hoses on the floor) and users (poor water pressure and inconsistent performance). Problem As a replacement, they considered a high pressure system with 1-2 drops designed to operate at 10 gpm @ 400psi (160°F) supplied by a pump manufacturer. Though this system may
