The never-ending battle against corrosion has climbed high on the aviation maintenance roster, especially rotary aircraft operating near or over saltwater. The U.S. Department of Defense has been among the first to take action against the billion-dollar corrosion problem, with regulations specifying weekly or daily aircraft rinses. Riveer, a global leader in aviation washing system, has offered the Tactical Rinse System (TRS). The TRS is a self-contained, above grade washing station that rinses aircraft thoroughly during taxi-through. TRS features oscillating water cannons on each of the four corners for a top rinse and patented FOD nozzles in the deck that rinse the underside of the fuselage according to airframe programming. TRS-programmed rinse profiles also assure proper water pressure and cycle time based on aircraft, while rinse patterns are automatically adjusted for wind direction and velocity. As a result, it delivers a thorough rinse for virtually any aircraft in any weather condition. Recycling water with TRS saves anywhere from 50% to 75% of the water used for each rinse.
