Through its hands-on experience and partnership with customers and suppliers, in may cases, ARS has developed custom, proprietary models to meet very specific needs.

Bottling Lines:
Working with suppliers of major brands of bottling lines, ARS has developed products and accessories for hot water sanitizing, ozone sanitizing and steam sterilizing bottling lines. The SWASH Steam Controller permits overnight unattended operation.

Tanks:
Cleaning and sanitizing tanks with steam radically reduces water use and waste water processing or costs. With the higher heat from steam, many customer have been able to reduce dramatically or eliminate the use of chemicals.

Oak Barrels / Casks:
ARS has perfected a technique for cleaning and sanitizing oak barrels and casks using steam. Customers have shown that tartrates and brettanomycescan be radically reduced or eliminated and that old wine can be extracted from the oak actually reducing the weight of the barrel. ARS also offers high pressure barrel washing appliances for cleaning barrels with water from a pressure washer. For very small wineries with dozens of barrels, the SWASH rotating wand barrel washer is a highly affordable manual device. For larger facilities, the Moog High Pressure barrel washing appliances provide semi-automatic, electric or hydraulic driven 360-degree spray nozzles with venturi suction to remove waste water in bung hole up washing. The Moog FRI-K offers 360-degree spray in an inverted position on a frame system that saves backaches in manipulating the barrels.

Facility, Equipment and Drains:
The SWASH portable pressure washers, built by Hydro-Tek, provide indoor or outdoor, cold or hot high pressure water for effective debris removal and cleaning. The SWASH portable steam generator and steam gun are ideal for sanitizing the facility, equipment and especially floor drains.

Biomist™ power sanitizing systems are highly useful with equipment in food processing facilities. They sanitize exposed surfaces with high concnetration alcohol, atomized with carbon dioxide to eliminate the risk of flammability. This system can be used on virtually any surface including around live electrical connection. The spray evaporates within minutes but after a sufficient residence time to achieve a "kill" against common viruses and negative forms of bacteria including e. coli, salmonella, and MRSA.

Commercial Dishwashers:
ARS and Miele have teamed up to offer a custom outfitted NSF approved dishwasher for wine glasses and stemware. It is a large capacity, sanitizes and can leave glasses lipstick-free and dry. Standard dishwasher racks are also available for small restaurant, B&B kitchens, or event center use with short cycles.

Commercial Laundry:
For B&B's, smaller inns or event centers, the Miele Little Giant washers and dryers are a high reliable alternative to cleaning and sanitizing table linens. The small rotary iron is compact and allows for rapid pressing of table linens.

Wine Barrel Room Humidification:
It is widely known that low humidity in the barrel room causes excessive evaporative losses. The Fogmaster Sentinel barrel room humidification system is an affordable and very low-maintenance device for maintaining relative humidity at 80% or more under ideal conditions without dripping or wetting.

ARS offers a wide variety of products for cleaning, sanitization, sterilization and humidification for the food and beverage industries with significant expertise in winery cleaning, winery sanitization, barrel room humidification, and stemware cleaning and sanitization. Through its hands-on experience and partnership with customers and suppliers, in may cases, ARS has developed custom, proprietary models to meet very specific needs.

	SWASH™ Stemware Washer Rapid cycle stemware washer that combines combines detergent washing and high temp rinsing to meet commercial NSF requirements. Custom configured for winery tasting rooms. Racks hold glasses at an angle to facilitate drying and are stackable for convenient storage.
	Miele Professional Dishwasher Available from SWASH sanitizing equipment, the Miele G7859-W is pre-configured for winery tasting rooms. These units meet commercial NSF requirements with no detergent by washing with 190° water for a minimum of 12 minutes. Dual levels allow washing of smaller glasses on top and larger ones on bottom. Ideal for boutique wineries using fine crystal.
	SWASH/Miele custom rack for large Bordeaux style wine glasses To insure safe handling and thorough self-draining and drying, we offer the SWASH Bordeaux glass rack exclusively for the Miele G7859 dishwashers. The Miele G7859-WB exclusively from SWASH sanitizing equipment is pre-configured with this Bordeaux glass rack on the bottom.
	SWASH™ Deluxe Steam Generator This is the unit that revolutionized the use of steam in wineries. First introduced in 2004, the SWASH™ deluxe steam generator is in its third generation constantly adding features wineries need and making the units more user friendly and convenient.
	SWASH™ Standard Steam Generator For the budget minded wineries, the SWASH™ standard steam generator provides the same quality steam as the deluxe model but without the special features and benefits built into the deluxe model specifically for wineries. Your SWASH sales representative can explain the differences in detail.
	SWASH™ Keg Cleaner/Sanitizer w/ three kegs in place For wineries packaging wine in kegs, the SWASH™ keg steamer/sanitizer is an automated system for rinsing and steam sanitizing up to three kegs at one time. The built in steam generator can also be used as a steam source for general purpose winery sanitization.
	SWASH™ Steam Controller for bottling line sterilization The SWASH™ steam controller allows the winery to sterilize their bottling line and/or filter assemblies unattended overnight so the line is cooled down and ready to use in the morning. Single or two channel controllers are available. The two channel controller allows for separate sterilization of the bottling line and the filter assembly if desired.
	SWASH™ sanitary pipe pigging system Long runs of hard piping are very difficult to clean. Years of accumulation restrict flow and increase the probability of contamination. The SWASH™ pipe pigging system is an affordable, semi-automated system for rapidly cleaning sanitary piping. It is also configured to recover wine from piping without water dilution or oxygen contact. It all starts with the launcher show here.
	SWASH™ sanitary pipe pig This FDA grade silicone pig is custom manufactured for SWASH sanitizing equipment. It is available in all standard sanitary pipe sizes. The SWASH™ pig can remove over 99% of anything in the pipe line making product recovery without water dilution or oxygen contact possible and leaves the pipe virtual free of material and ready for steaming sterilization.
	SWASH™ sanitary pipe pigging retriever w/ pig shown entering site glass To retrieve the pig at the end of the line, the SWASH™ pipe pigging system includes a retriever with site glass to show when the pig has arrived at the end of the line. The retrieve allows for convenient release of internal pressure and retrieval of the pig for repeated use.
	SWASH™ pipe line SIP assembly Once pipe lines have been pigged and cleaned, the SWASH™ pipe line SIP assembly allows for quick and convenient sterilization of the pipeline to medical sterilization standards. It is simply clamped on the downstream end of a pipe lines with a sanitary clamp. The SWASH™ steam generator is attached at the upstream end of the pipe and set for 15 to 20 psi steam pressure. The SIP assembly essentially turns the length of pipe into an autoclave chamber in which the internal pressure will build to the pressure setting of the steam generator and achieve a corresponding temperature. 15psi equates to 121°C or 250°F. When held for 12 to 15 minutes, medical grade sterilization can be achieved.
