Car Wash Equipment → Foam Tanks
JBS professional car wash foam tanks use compressed air to apply a controlled mixture of water and vehicle-cleaning chemical across the surface during the pre-wash stage. Choose between 60 L and 100 L models according to daily vehicle throughput, chemical consumption, compressor capacity and refill frequency.
Foam Tanks
Model: J-KT60
JBS J-KT60 is a 60-litre compressed-air foam tank for commercial car washes, valeting bays and detailing centres. Its 5 bar working pressure, 10-metre hose and trigger-operated foam gun support controlled pre-wash application. Buyers should assess vehicle throughput, detergent dilution, compressor airflow, refill intervals, hose reach and workspace before specifying the system for daily use.
Foam Tanks
Model: J-KT100
The JBS J-KT100 is a 100-litre car wash foam tank operating at 5 bar with a 10-metre hose and trigger-operated foam gun. Supplied by a suitable air compressor, it applies pre-wash foam to vehicle surfaces. Its larger capacity reduces refilling frequency at valeting centres, car washes and fleet cleaning sites without compromising controlled application.
Category Guide
A commercial foam tank provides a controlled method of applying pre-wash chemical across cars, vans and other vehicles before the main pressure-washing stage. Dense foam helps wet and soften road grime, mud, dust and compatible oily residues, giving the main wash process more time to work on contamination.
The JBS J-KT60 60 L Foam Tank is designed for lower to medium-volume car washes and detailing sites that require a compact compressed-air foam system. It operates at 5 bar and includes a 10-metre hose with a trigger-operated foam gun.
For busier wash bays, fleet operations and commercial-vehicle cleaning, the JBS J-KT100 100 L Foam Tank provides greater chemical capacity and can reduce the number of refills required during a shift.
The larger tank does not automatically produce denser or better foam. Foam quality depends on chemical dilution, compressor air delivery, pressure-regulator setting, gun configuration and hose condition.
A foam tank should also be understood as part of the complete wash system. It does not generate high-pressure rinse water. Operators therefore need a compatible commercial pressure washer for the main wash and an appropriately sized air compressor to supply the tank.
Compare both capacities in the JBS Foam Tank range.
Choose capacity around throughput. A 60 L tank is suitable where daily chemical consumption is moderate. A 100 L tank is more practical where operators want longer intervals between refills.
Check compressor air delivery. Maximum pressure alone is not enough. The compressor needs adequate airflow and receiver capacity to support the required operating pattern.
Use the correct chemical dilution. Over-concentrating detergent increases chemical cost and can create unnecessary surface or rinsing issues.
Inspect pressure-control equipment. The pressure gauge, regulator and safety valve should be part of routine inspection.
Check hose and gun quality. Frequent commercial use places continuous stress on trigger mechanisms, fittings and hoses.
Confirm chemical compatibility. Tank, seals and hose materials must be compatible with the chosen car-care chemical.
Never open a pressurised tank. Pressure must be fully released before filling, servicing or disconnecting components.
Plan rinsing capacity as well. Foam application is only the pre-wash stage; sufficient pressure and water flow are still required for effective rinsing.
The best foam tank is not simply the largest model—it is the one matched to wash-bay throughput, compressor capacity and chemical consumption.

The choice should be based on daily vehicle volume, foam consumption, refill frequency, and workspace conditions.
Professional chemicals compatible with the tank, seals, and hose materials should be used.
The safety valve, pressure gauge, regulator, and secure connections should be checked regularly.
