Ball washing involves more than just the washing
machine. A means to collect and move balls from the ballpool
to the machine and after washing return clean balls to the
ballpool are both essential parts of an efficient ball washing
system.The HyGenie machine itself generates positive air
(pressure) and negative air (vacuum) to move balls in both
directions. Vacuum sucks balls to the machine and positive
pressure propels balls back to the ballpool after washing.
Air and balls travel through the AIR CONVEYANCE SYSTEM, which
may be laid out in various routes and configurations for ball
movement to heights and distances limited only by the power
of the HyGenie model to which it is connected.
HyGenie models (not shown) are available to move balls up
to 30 feet in height under pressure and 75 feet horizontal
distance. There are two basic Air Conveyance Systems: FLEXLINE
and INTERACTIVE for all HyGenie models.
FLEXLINE consists of two flexible tubes (vacuum and pressure)
connected to the machine and laid across the floor to the
ballpool for conveying balls back and forth. Lines are generally
removed during playtime and stored until needed for next cleaning.
This system allows less visibility of ball movement as compared
to INTERACTIVE.
INTERACTIVE consists of hard clear plastic tube and elbows,
open gravity track and other components permanently installed
between the HyGenie machine and ballpool. Interactive provides
maximum visibility of dynamic ball movement and may be configured
to cover greater height and distances as further described
under Custom Interactive. All HyGenie Ball Washer / Ball Mover
models can be used with either Interactive or Flexline Air
Conveyance Systems.
Flexline System
This system consists of Flexlines for conveying balls between
ballpool and ball washer / ball mover - includes necessary
clamps, adapters and interface pieces and may be used with
or without Target Assembly and Pick-up Wand (priced separately).
Standard Interactive System
Includes clear, hard plastic tube, elbows, connecting sleeves,
open track, open track elbows, interface pieces, flexline,
connectors, target assembly, pick-up wand and installation
hardware for 9' vertical x 9' horizontal ball conveyance.
Includes all the components of the Standard Interactive System
described above PLUS additional components to create a larger
or special layout specifically for your unique play facility.
We will help design your Custom System without charge if you
send us your dimensioned floor plan showing ceiling height(s),
location of ballpool(s), approximate location of HyGenie machine
and approximate route for conveyance tubes between ballpool(s)
and HyGenie. The cost of the components to create your unique
Custom Interactive System can only be determined after the
layout has been finalized.
