MULTI-PURPOSE ARCH

Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of the Belanger, Inc. MULTI-PURPOSE ARCH. The purpose
of this manual is to familiarize you with the way that the MULTI-PURPOSE ARCH is installed,
the various ways in which it can operate, and how to maintain it after installation.
The Installation section will be used in conjunction with specification sheets, location diagrams,
Arch Configuration sheets, and the MULTI-PURPOSE ARCH drawings. All of these combined
are your guide to installation.

The Maintenance sections will be used to make sure you can keep your car wash component
looking and running like new.
Whether you have already operated a car wash or you are new to our industry, you know the
importance of the appearance of a car wash and its equipment to the customer. Keeping the
equipment clean will not only make the equipment easier to maintain, it will act as an example to
your customer to keep their equipment (their automobile) clean as well. Replacing the cloth as
necessary, will also help the image of your wash and keep the customer coming back.
Read through the entire manual to familiarize yourself with the MULTI-PURPOSE ARCH before
installation. When installation is completed, you will want to keep this manual as a guide to
proper maintenance.
The new MULTI-PURPOSE ARCH is available in two colors, red and blue and comes with
stainless steel fittings. The main arch is constructed with schedule 40 stainless steel pipe.
Nozzle holes are “flo-drilled” and tapped for a 1/4”npt thread. This arch is foam covered in the
purchased color. There is a decorative molded cover over the fittings, with a “Belanger” decal on
both sides. The arch has 24 nozzles and uses current Belanger nozzle kits. The models with
stainless steel fittings, are approved to operate up to 1000 PSI, as well as with RO water, and
approved acid and alkaline based chemicals. A 3/4”npt fitting and hose barb are included for the
normal supply feeds. The feeds are in the center of the arch for optimum and balanced flow. A
Belanger reclaim unit can be used with the MULTI-PURPOSE ARCH as an economical, high
volume Flooder Arch. A Belanger Jet Pumping Station (JPS), can be purchased to supply the
arch at high pressure.
