✦ Synopsis
An apparatus for washing automotive, aviation, marine and other general parts with a ,cleaning solution during maintenance, repair and rebuilding operations, includes a solution holding reservoir, a wash basin with a drain to facilitate return of the cleaning solution to the holding reservoir, and a pump in the holding reservoir for recirculating the cleaning solution through a discharge spout and into the wash basin for washing parts therein. A first valve assembly between the drain and the cleaning solution holding reservoir closes during periods of non-use to prevent vapors from escaping to the atmosphere. During a recycling process, a second valve assembly releases used, contaminated solvent from the holding reservoir into a distillation chamber where the solvent is heated to produce vapors. A condenser cools the vapors to a liquid state, yielding non-contaminated cleaning solution, which is directed into the holding reservoir for future parts washing as demanded.
